Predators

Penguin Predators

 

Penguins are food to a number of animals.  They are a prey to leopard seal, sea lions, and orcas.  They are also a type of food to birds, believe it or not.  They are food to the Australian sea eagle, the Skua, the sheathbill and the Caracaras.  Penguins have predators that walk on land, like ferrets, cats, snakes, lizards, foxes, and even rats.
