2. Unprecedented Insights From Antarctica’s Guests

People often think of Antarctica as a distant, forsaken, and isolated land. But recently, scientists have gained unprecedented insights into the behavior and life of this continent’s inhabitants. Through the use of groundbreaking technology, scientific research is uncovering fascinating facts about Antarctica’s guests!

Gentoo penguins, one of the most populous species on the frozen continent, have been studied in detail. It has been found that these birds have unique habits and routines; they congregate in groups to mate, sing idiosyncratic songs, and even migrate in swarms like a flock of birds. In addition, the behavior of leopard seals is also being documented as they hunt birds, diving deep underwater in search of prey. In order to better understand the social lives of these creatures, scientists have deployed cameras to observe them in their natural environments.
