The adventures of this penguin seems to have struck a chord. His trials and tribulations have been regularly reported in the Canadian media and just this morning, there was another story (with video) about him being loaded on a boat for a four day trip south where he will be released. I wonder if the Canadian media will continue to follow his GPS track. |

He's travelling south on the NIWA Research Vessel Tangaroa ........ Happy Feet is on his way home! The tracking will only be for the period between moulting ...... there is another link to the tracking device on the last post of the previous page. Edited by Kahu, Aug 30 2011, 12:38 AM.

He'll be dropped off down by the Auckland Islands with still a very long way to swim ...... along with the Leopard Seals, the Great Whites and the Collossal Squid. It will be interesting just to keep track his movements though ..... so I hope the link will be publicised. |

I am holding happy, positive thoughts that the transmitter is the culprit and that Happy Feet is finding his way home. |

No one is really sure MC .... we are just hoping. Leopard Seals are not unknown off our coasts and have been known to take black suited swimmers in the surf ...... and Orcas are common around the coasts too.
