Meanwhile<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; spring has arrived down here in the empty penguin colony. The days are starting<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; to get longer, which means that Promises will be arriving back home within the<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; next few weeks.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Even though Brazil is a lot further north than the penguin colony, it is still<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; in the southern hemisphere. Penguins have never lived in the northern hemisphere.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; From the very first penguin over 50 million years ago, wild penguins have only<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; ever lived in the southern hemisphere. We know that is true because penguin fossils<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; have only ever been found in the south. The only penguins living in the northern<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; hemisphere live in zoos and aquariums.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; It is not certain why penguins have never lived in the north, but the most likely<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; explanation is just chance. Penguins need warm feathers for living in cold water,<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; and that makes them unsuitable for living in very hot countries. Of course there<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; are exceptions. There are penguins that have adapted to living in South Africa,<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Peru, Australia and the Galapagos Islands, all of which are hot.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Even so, penguins do generally prefer cooler weather, and it is perhaps the hot<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; climate around the equator that has prevented penguins from crossing over and<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; establishing a breeding colony in the north. I am sure that penguins would have<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; flourished in the north if they had ever got there.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; There are thousands of examples of animals that are able to thrive in other places,<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; but never got there on their own due to physical barriers such as oceans, mountains<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; or hostile climate. A few examples would be rabbits in Australia, mongoose on<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Hawaii, and rats escaping from ships and colonizing islands all over the world,<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; wiping out populations of ground nesting birds.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Most countries suffer from introduced species that were brought into the country<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; by man. These animals have always been capable of living in their new country,<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; but were simply prevented from doing so by a physical barrier. Very often global<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; distribution is just a matter of luck.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Hawaii rose up out of the sea as a volcano, and became an archipelago of lifeless<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; islands isolated in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Every single creature on<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Hawaii found its way there from hundreds of miles away, and then adapted. Just<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; a handful of bird species, blown out to sea by freak storms, found safe haven<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; on Hawaii. Over millions of years this handful of birds evolved into 59 different<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; species that are now unique to Hawaii.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Before working with penguins, I used to work with the Hawaii Volcanoes National<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Park on a government project to save the small population of Hawksbill turtles<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; and Hawaiian Goose that live there. Hawaii is a great example of how a lifeless<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; island became populated against all the odds by birds and insects blown from<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; hundreds of miles away. It is also a great example of how species that could<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; not get there on their own, were introduced by man, causing tremendous damage<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; to the native wildlife.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; No mammals at all ever reached Hawaii, except for two species of seal that swam<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; there. In the absence of predators, many birds began nesting on the ground, or<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; became flightless. Then man introduced mammals such as mongoose and wild boar,<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; which began eating the eggs and chicks of these ground nesting birds, causing<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; more than 30 species of bird to become extinct on Hawaii.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Penguins never crossed the equator, even though their ability to swim would in<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; theory have made it possible for them to have colonized the northern hemisphere.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; However they did reach all corners of the southern hemisphere. There are penguins<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; in South America, in Africa, and in Australia and New Zealand.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; These penguins do not like cold weather at all. They avoid areas where there<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; is snow and ice. These penguins lay their eggs on the ground, and the eggs would<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; freeze and die if they were laid in a nest on snow and ice. These are not cold-weather<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; penguins.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Then of course there are the cold-weather penguins. They live in Antarctica,<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; and on lots of small islands around Antarctica, where there is snow and ice.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; These penguins lay just one egg, and then they must hold that egg on their feet<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; to stop it from touching the freezing ground.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; When the egg hatches, the chick must then also sit on its parent&#8217;s feet to stop<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; it getting cold. If you have seen the films &#8216;Happy Feet&#8217; or &#8216;March of the Penguin&#8217;,<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; you might remember that.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; If you go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.penguins.cl\/penguins-region.htm\">www.penguins.cl\/penguins-region.htm<\/a> you will find my world map showing<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; where all the world&#8217;s penguins live. All the areas where penguins live are marked<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; in red, and if you touch on any of these areas on the map, you will be taken<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; to a page showing you which penguins live in that area.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; At the moment Brazil is still the temporary home for Promises and several million<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; other penguins. Despite that, there are no penguin colonies in Brazil. Does that<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; sound confusing?<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; To be clear, there are penguins in Brazil, but there are no penguin nests in<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Brazil. As far as we know there never have been. Even though Brazil is home for<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Promises every winter, penguins do not actually live in Brazil. Brazil is a great<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; place for their winter migration, but apparently it is not a place where penguins<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; want to nest.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Firstly there is the obvious problem of the heat. Even though there are a few<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; exceptions, most penguins do not like extreme heat. During the winter months<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; it is not quite as hot in Brazil, and Promises is also able to remain in the<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; water 24 hours a day to keep cool. The penguins never go ashore in Brazil unless<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; they become ill or get oiled. They remain in the refreshing seawater the whole<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; time they are there.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; However to have a nest and raise chicks, Promises would have to spend many hours<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; on land, and during the full heat of the summer too. It gets far too hot in Brazil<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; during the summer for Promises to do that. Penguins have thick feathers that<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; they cannot take off in hot weather. They would fry like an egg if they sat out<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; in a nest under the strong Brazilian sun.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; There is also the problem of food. It is a fact that the nearer you go to the<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; pole, the longer the days are in summer (and shorter in winter). So if Promises<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; remained in Brazil, there would be less hours of daylight to catch food for hungry<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; chicks. There is also less fish to catch around Brazil. The waters further south<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; are much richer in food reserves during the summer than the waters of Brazil.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; So the penguins all leave Brazil in spring, and swim back home to raise chicks<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; in the south, where it is easier to catch food and where they have more time<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; to do so. Within the next few days Promises will begin the long journey back<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; home to the nest.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; The penguins will swim past the same rugged cliffs, sandy beaches and lighthouses<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; that they passed by on their journey up to Brazil. They will all take the same<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; route for most of the way, but then when they reach the coast of Argentina, some<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; of the penguins will leave the coastline and head out into the open ocean towards<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; the Falkland Islands.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Meanwhile Promises and many other penguins will keep following the coastline<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; until they reach the Straits of Magellan. Magellanic penguins are named after<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; the Straits of Magellan where they live. Here the penguins split up again as<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; many carry on south beyond the Straits of Magellan.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; As Promises will be repairing the nest for new eggs and chicks, other penguins<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; will be carrying on further south, swimming around Tierra del Fuego and on towards<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Cape Horn, and even beyond.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Some penguins will swim way beyond Cape Horn, to the islands of Ildefonso and<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Diego Ramirez. Those tiny remote islands lie halfway between Cape Horn and Antarctica<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; in the roughest seas on Earth. Only cold-weather penguins lie beyond there.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Once the penguins arrive back home it will be work, work, work. First there will<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; be weeks of sitting on the eggs to keep them warm. That is then followed by many<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; more weeks of catching fish from dawn to dusk to feed hungry chicks. I will of<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; course share all of that with you as it happens.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; I will write to you again in a few weeks time when Promises will have arrived<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; back home. I will then be able to send you a new photo of Promises in the nest.<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt; Kind regards,  Mike<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;<br \/>\n<br \/>&gt;\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&gt; &gt; \ufeffDear PenguinPromises &gt; &gt; The penguins are still up in Brazil and having a relaxing time no doubt.
