  Thank you ( National Geographic ),for one the most beautiful and spectacular films of the Emperor Pinguin, there will to survive.I also would like to thank all the scientist involved in this heart warming documentary. The world need's to be more involved in the catastrophic effect's that are conributing to Global Warming.When President's,Prime Minister's,King's Etc. gather at the United Nation's in New York, I know that they discuss Global Warming, But I wander if they implement at all or contribute in any form to help stop Global Warmin. I know that the damage that has been created took many years,and it will take year's to stop the problem. But we all must start now.Thank You, Cora P.

  Reply to earlier comment: "leaving them to die". The researches: (a) have no right to intervene in the natural affairs of the animals such as defending the animals against natural predators, etc; (b) researchers had no resources or means to get the majestic birds out of death trap; (c) there are other numerous reasons not listed here. But be assured - I am a long time Emperors and other penguins fan and I know that if the researchers have even slightest chance of rescuing animals they always do. Do not assume that Antarctica is your backyard and that the same conditions, rules, etc apply. You must know that Antarctica is the "coldest, windiest, driest and harshest" place on the ENTIRE EARTH. Hypothetical example for the sake of example: Astronauts want to rescue four Elephants from the Moon, but there is only enough oxygen for the astronauts.

  Tragedy. And quite frankly, I can never understand things like leaving them to die in the crevace, like they did. If you're there "researching", rescue them. Don't just count them and weigh them, do something! No excuse would suffice.

  Penguins are my favorite! I hope this is as good as March of the Penguins :)
