A lateral-view scientific illustration depicts the external anatomy of a king penguin (Aptenodytes patagonicus), a marine bird in the family Spheniscidae (class Aves). The organism shows counter-shaded plumage with black dorsum, white ventrum, and orange auricular and throat patches on the lateral neck and upper chest. Streamlined body and flattened, flipper-like wings represent modified forelimbs that generate propulsion underwater, illustrating adaptations studied in ornithology, comparative anatomy, and physiology. This organism-level image highlights integumentary and musculoskeletal features relevant to swimming and thermoregulation.
