In short: a penguin - fossil - 2m found in Antarctica
Current record size for a penguin: 2 m to 115 kg. Pet name: Palaeeudyptes klekowskii . Habitat: the Antarctic Peninsula there are 40 million years.
Emperor penguins (often mistakenly baptized penguins), here at a young age, are the biggest current auks, a family which includes including puffins, guillemots, razorbills and the late great auk (destroyed in the nineteenth century) . © Hannes Grobe / AWI, Wikipedia, cc by 3.0
An Argentine team Museum of La Plata has been lucky exploring the island of Seymour, at the end of the peninsula Antarctica , near the James Ross Island . In 2012, paleontologists have discovered the remains of thousands of penguin fossils dated from 37 to 40 million years. Recently, Acosta Hospitaleche and Marcelo Reguero, members of the museum team from La Plata, described the skeleton of a giant penguin , belonging to a species already known Palaeeudyptes klekowskii most comprehensive to date.

"It was a wonderful time for the penguins , who was represented by 10-14 species on the Antarctic coast, " she explained to New Scientist . The researcher announced studying additional bone, belonging to the wing and foot, and especially great. Comparing with other species skeletons fossil , Acosta Hospitaleche estimates the size of the animal to 2 m and weight 115 kg.
If these values are confirmed (for the proportions of skeletal bone may vary from one species to another, particularly over such long periods), so that P klekowskii would be the largest known but it is not alone in its class penguin. The fossil record has provided several species in stature and nose long and pointed. Found in New Zealand, Kairuku grebneffi reached 1.30 meters at Peru Icadyptes salasi measured 1.50 m. With 46 kg, 1.25 m and a short beak, the emperor penguin , the largest current auks seems puny.
