The emperor penguin grows to a height of up to 1.25m and can weigh as much as
45kg. They are excellent, fast swimmers. Emperor penguins can reach speeds of up
to 30 km/h and dive down to 400 m. On land, penguins waddle or slide on their
bellies, propelling themselves along with their feet or flippers.
Fun Facts: Penguins hunt for fish in the sea, where they can reach astonishing
diving depths.

Schleich products are developed with the assistance of parents, teachers and children and are therefore especially designed for children’s hands. The design of Schleich products is as realistic and naturalistic as possible. This enables children to experience the large variety of nature – from domestic animals on a farm to wild animals in the jungle.
