The average height of penguins is about 90 centimeters. However, there are many species of penguins, and the size of different species varies greatly. Some of the larger penguins, such as the "Emperor Penguin", can reach a height of more than 1 meter. But some of the smaller penguins, such as the Chinstrap Penguin, are only 43 to 53 centimeters tall. In addition, even the same species of penguins, there are differences in height, just as there are individual differences in human height, but the difference will not be very large.

1. How tall

is the penguin? The penguin is a very famous animal with many species. And these different species of penguins are different in many ways. From the appearance point of view, their differences include color, body shape and so on. In terms of size, the height of different species of penguins is different. Some penguins are very small, and some penguins are larger. Overall, the average height of penguins is about 90 centimeters, but there are great differences in different species. Lar

ger penguins, such as "Emperor Penguin", are very large penguin species, their height can reach more than 1 meter, and the larger ones can reach 1.3 meters. Some penguins are smaller, such as the "chinstrap penguin", which is only 43 to 53 centimeters tall, much shorter than the emperor penguin. In addition, even the same species of penguins, their height is also different, just as the height of different people has individual differences. Of course, there is a range of differences, and their height is mainly affected by genetic factors. As mentioned

above, there are many species of penguins, some of which are large and some of which are small. In addition to height, it is also reflected in weight. The weight of different species of penguins also varies greatly. For example, the average weight of the emperor penguins described above can reach more than 35 kilograms, and the weight of larger individuals is similar to that of humans. Chinstrap penguins, on the other hand, weigh only about 4 kilograms, which is a big difference. Of course, even penguins of the same species have different weights, not exactly the same.
