Humpback whale Emperor Penguin Crabeater Seal Adelie penguin Petrel Killer whale Leopard seal Phytoplankton • Phytoplankton are eaten by Zooplankton. • As Phytoplankton are Plants they make their own food. • Some phytoplankton are bacteria, some are protists, but most are single-celled plants. • Phytoplankton are the microscopic plants in the oceans. • Phytoplankton start the food chain. Back Home Zooplankton • Zooplankton are eaten by krill. • Zooplankton are some of the small animals of the sea. • Zooplankton are second in the food chain. • Zooplankton are the primary consumers of the oceans and graze on phytoplankton. Back Home Krill • Krill are small animals that eat zooplankton. • The average length for a krill is two inches. • Scientists estimate that the total weight of all the Antarctic krill is more than the total weight of all humans on Earth. • Squid, Humpback Whales and ice fish and tooth fish eat krill. • Krill are invertebrates. Back Home Squid • Squid are eaten by tooth fish and emperor penguins. • Squid eat Zooplankton and Krill. • Squid are Carnivores. • All squid are invertebrates as they have no backbone. • The biggest squid recorded in Antarctica was 10 meters long and weighed 450 kilograms. Back Home Fish (including Ice Fish and tooth fish) • Fish eat a range Squid and krill. • The fish are eaten by Emperor penguins, Crabeater seals, Adelie penguins, Humpback Whales and Petrels. Back Home Humpback Whale • Humpback Whales eat hundreds of krill. • Nothing eats a Humpback whale because it is too big. Back Home Emperor Penguin • Emperor Penguins eat Krill, Squid and Fish. • Killer whales and Leopard seals eat Emperor Penguins. Back Home Crabeater Seal • Crabeater Seals Eat Krill, Fish and Squid. • Killer Whales and Leopard Seals eat Crabeater Seals. Back Home Adelie Penguins • Adelie Penguins eat Krill and Fish. • Killer Whales and Leopard Seals eat Adelie Penguins. Back Home Petrel • Petrel eat Ice Fish and Tooth fish. • Leopard seals eat Petrels. • Because Petrels fly they escape some Predators. Back Home Killer Whale • Killer Whales eat Adelie Penguins, Crabeater Seals and Emperor Penguins. • Killer Whales are Predators. Back Home Leopard Seal • Leopard Seals eat emperor Penguins, Crabeater Seals, Adelie Penguins and Petrels. • Leopard seals are Predators. Back Home King Penguin • The King Penguin is the 2nd largest Species of penguin. Only smaller than the emperor Penguin. • The King Penguin eats Fish and Squid. • King Penguins are eaten by Leopard Seals and Killer Whales.
