Penguin parade

Snares crested penguins live
on the coast of New Zealand.
Every year in September, they
walk up to 2,952 ft (900 m)
inland to find a safe place
to lay their eggs. They travel
down well-worn penguin
paths to reach the forests
where their eggs will be
safe from predators, until
their young hatch a few
months later.
