Is the king penguin on endangered list?

Yes, the king penguin ( Aptenodytes patagonicus) is listed as "vulnerable" on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List. The population of the king penguin has been declining due to several factors, including climate change, habitat loss, and overfishing. Climate change is causing the sea ice to melt, which is reducing the penguins' breeding and feeding grounds. Habitat loss is occurring due to human activities, such as fishing, tourism, and pollution. Overfishing is depleting the penguins' food sources, such as fish and krill. These factors are all contributing to the decline of the king penguin population and its subsequent listing as "vulnerable" on the IUCN Red List.
