Every year on or about April 25 Adeline penguins were spotted at the McMurdo base migrating north.
This Sunday, April 25, is World Penguin Day s celebration, a creation by researchers at the McMurdo Station, an American scientific center on Antarctica s Ross Island to mark every year s migration of Adeline penguins to the north.
It is the second year in a row that this wildlife awareness day is shadowed by a much more significant event worldwide, such as the coronavirus pandemic, as if history was to repeat itself from when Ernest Shackleton managed to bring home safe his entire crew of the doomed Endurance Antarctica expedition in 1915 -which earned him the “Sir” title- much to the indifference of a contemporary World War I British society which, as Margot Morrell and Stephanie Capparell put it, “preferred to pay tribute to those who sacrificed their lives for the flag.”
