Penguin Invasion!
Clip: Season 34 Episode 12 | 2m 6s
Adélie penguins have a bad habit of annoying their royal relatives.
The Adélie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) is a species of penguin common along the entire Antarctic coast. During the breeding season, they congregate in large colonies, some over a quarter of a million pairs. Much to the annoyance of the larger Emperor penguin, their breeding grounds overlap.
