Alice B. from SANDY, UT
Reviewed on 12/17/2013...
This is a fantastic family nature but educational video of the Emperor Penguin in Antarctica. These amazing Penguins survive when the seas are iced over, the land is totally frozen, but the Emperor Penguin has perfected the art of survival. They are built to conquer the cold, but can they handle climate change?

Parts of Antarctica are warming, giving birth to huge icebergs, and the consequences could be catastrophic. In a place where all life is touched by the ice, scientists are using the Crittercam which gives them the opportunity to hitch a virtual ride under the ice with the emperor penguin to study the impact of Climate change on the penguins world.As a scientist and parent this is a fun learning opportunity.
