## Caption

Second to only the emperor penguin, the king penguin is a large species found in the south Atlantic. Don’t confuse these reigning birds with their cousins, though. King penguins have a bright orange cheek patch, whereas the emperor penguin has a a white patch. King penguins are serial monogamists. They’re always faithful to one mate each year, but fidelity between years is pretty low.
