Desert Penguins | Untamed Americas

[Music]
the ocean at the desert sedge supports
one of the largest gatherings of sea
birds on the planet
[Music]
millions of birds means millions of
kilograms of pork the perfect place to
build a home
more than a thousand pairs of Humboldt
penguins live up high on these soiled
Shores
this new father is putting the finishing
touches on his nest is four week old
twins is high maintenance as they come
mom and dad must hunt every day just to
keep them quiet it’s dad’s turn to go to
work it’s rush hour and the road is
treacherous
four flightless birds living at the top
of a 30 meter cliff there’s a cruel joke
but they have no choice they must pick a
path and go for it

[Music]
towards the bottom waist-deep penguin
feathers soften the landing
[Music]
they make it down without injury
