Snow Chick: A Penguin's Tale
This enchanting film follows the adventures of one charismatic emperor penguin from the time he emerges from the egg to the moment he leaves for the sea. Emperor penguins grow up during the winter in one of the coldest places on Earth - the Antarctic. The conditions are harsh and chicks must endure temperatures of minus 60 degrees Celsius and terrifying blizzards. This film follows the trials and tribulations of one adorable fluffy chick - from his first tentative steps on the ice, to getting lost, to hanging out with the other chicks. It also shows the lengths his parents will go to provide food, overcoming huge obstacles, avoiding predators like leopard seals, and enduring freezing conditions. Full of tense and moving moments as well as comedy and character, Snow Chick follows the emperor penguin's life story in a level of detail never attempted before.
Welcome to BBC EARTH! The world is an amazing place full of stories, beauty and natural wonder. Here you'll find 50 years worth of entertaining and thought-provoking natural history content. Dramatic, rare, and exclusive, nature doesn't get more exciting than this.

Mother: *walks for days while being chased by predators to reach her family* Father: *keeps tripping over the baby and screaming*

@skypeters3034 2 года назад

Pretty accurate

The father endured a lot to keep his chick safe and alive. Both mother and father equally had the same dangers and duties.

@@maxazzopardi7446 Um....LISTEN to the dialog from beginning to end, and note the sudden change of role at 00:43 with the nursing parent being labeled as "father." As it turns out, the seahorse kingdom is the only one where the roles are totally reversed in reproduction. It seems as though that the penguin world has a bit of a different way to nurse their young.

@@dannymoise2308 Animals that can’t really comprehend the concepts of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ (from a moral stance) are less likely to commit morally reprehensible acts.

@Hyraladen 2 года назад

Know it's nature and the leopard seal has to eat but I was rooting for none of the penguins to be captured. I mean all that work gathering fish for your chick that's so far away then to end up being eaten and the chick will eventually starve or freeze to death because the father or whoever has the chick will get hungry and have no other choice but to leave the chick to go feed. It's sad and unpredictable but even the leopard seal might have pups somewhere or just a seal that's starving... Honestly can't really choose sides since both are just trying to survive... It's cruel but fascinating too

I don't think there is, they can't really raise their youngs on the ice near water, because that ice is thin and can melt. So they need to raise them on the ice that is on actual land, but that means it's several kilometers away from the sea ^^'
