Snow Chick: A Penguin's Tale
This enchanting film follows the adventures of one charismatic emperor penguin from the time he emerges from the egg to the moment he leaves for the sea. Emperor penguins grow up during the winter in one of the coldest places on Earth - the Antarctic. The conditions are harsh and chicks must endure temperatures of minus 60 degrees Celsius and terrifying blizzards. This film follows the trials and tribulations of one adorable fluffy chick - from his first tentative steps on the ice, to getting lost, to hanging out with the other chicks. It also shows the lengths his parents will go to provide food, overcoming huge obstacles, avoiding predators like leopard seals, and enduring freezing conditions. Full of tense and moving moments as well as comedy and character, Snow Chick follows the emperor penguin's life story in a level of detail never attempted before.

Mother: *walks for days while being chased by predators to reach her family*
Father: *keeps tripping over the baby and screaming*
Pretty accurate
The father endured a lot to keep his chick safe and alive. Both mother and father equally had the same dangers and duties.
OMG LOL🤣
Is it okay if Dad changes places with Mom? Or are you just gonna say shit?
To everyone defending the dad: You realize this is a joke right? I'm not throwing shade at a hecking penguin. I figured that was obvious.
The way that father screamed every time he's falling down cracked me up!
that's the mother
Don't forget that a lot of sounds are added post-prod ^^
@@maxazzopardi7446 Um....LISTEN to the dialog from beginning to end, and note the sudden change of role at 00:43 with the nursing parent being labeled as "father." As it turns out, the seahorse kingdom is the only one where the roles are totally reversed in reproduction. It seems as though that the penguin world has a bit of a different way to nurse their young.
He was like
"Ah dangit patrick, I said stop sticking your head out when I'm waddling!"
"Aaaahhhhh! Again!?"
The last one felt like a "my back!" 🤣
And every time the father falls, you can see the kid is giggling
there’s something about british nature narrators that just hits different
Probably because they're better educated than us
cause Americans are too casual
@@maruf7956 by casual, you mean we're stupid.
@@Char1iBr0wn no, learn the meaning of casual
@@maruf7956 I know it, but that doesn't change the fact that, per capita the Brits are smarter than us.
I love emperor penguins so much. They are too human-like and relatable in their behaviour and interactions.
nah, they do a better job morally than many humans do
@@dannymoise2308 Animals that can’t really comprehend the concepts of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ (from a moral stance) are less likely to commit morally reprehensible acts. And look at some of the more intelligent species who *do* understand: dolphins most ape species, and humans. Not exactly a good track record. At least, that’s what I think ^^
Allah says in surat An'am, verse 38: "There is not a moving (living) creature on earth, nor a bird that flies with its two wings, but are communities like you"
Indeed, you are right, Chris. They are very similar to us
Nah I think emperor penguins have some decorum about them. Us, not so much😕
Kudos to the penguins! The journey and trek is so long. They little feets. So much danger.
Hi,I love you
@@tullo5564 👋👋
@@Fadedecho1 I hope you're single 💋
I want you!!
@@tullo5564 your too kind. Lol. Tysm for caring 💞
What on earth were these replies
How these guy shoot such amazing footage...its overwhelming
Especially the leopard seal footage. Leopard seals are notorious because they're one of the only big mammal predators that haven't been exposed to people often enough to learn to fear them. I'm curious what safety precautions they had for whoever was on the camera.
@@MainTopmastStaysail it could be a drone, but im not sure on that part-
@@MainTopmastStaysail We've been told ever since WW2 that cameraman can withstand anything like how they survived atomic bomb upclose
@@MainTopmastStaysail It's likely a remote control underwater camera.
They are such an incredible animal .
its just "instinct". they just eat to survive.
@@JohnnyjohnJ and? Still incredible
@@JohnnyjohnJWe doing same think but differently
@@Billman6 THEY EAT?!?!?!?! i thought they just harnessed the energy from invisible black holes
Know it's nature and the leopard seal has to eat but I was rooting for none of the penguins to be captured. I mean all that work gathering fish for your chick that's so far away then to end up being eaten and the chick will eventually starve or freeze to death because the father or whoever has the chick will get hungry and have no other choice but to leave the chick to go feed. It's sad and unpredictable but even the leopard seal might have pups somewhere or just a seal that's starving... Honestly can't really choose sides since both are just trying to survive... It's cruel but fascinating too
The only sensible comment here.
Yeah That’s nature. Nature is metal
Rules of nature. She is a harsh, but fair mistress.
i didnt pick i side lol
Nature is a diamond, it has many sides, Beauty, Cuteness, Happiness], Death, Gore, Fear.
@@MrKenilles she is not fair lol she just is, there is no morality in natural laws
Not gonna lie, when the mother was walking and the ice broke, my heart was racing when the seal was getting closer and closer to it, but luckily the mother penguin just barely managed to get away and I felt relieved.
I love the way Penguins walking,swimming and jumping. 😊
me too. you should see videos of them dying
@@maxazzopardi7446 I agree you should see dying not just walking, swimming, and jumping and cuteness about the chicks
...And fall... and horn...
👌👍
@@maxazzopardi7446 :( i refuse to watch those clips
Hilariously funny how father keeps swearing and screaming after tripping on the baby. 😂😂😂
So beautiful goes to show regardless of species, we all try to give our babies the very best start! Thank you
And us humans can’t even walk in a fast food place cuz we have drive thru
Except for the species that eat their babies. Like guppies.
Did the penguins get their college loans forgiven?
Sadly not all
Kinda has to be that way, the species that DONT want to give their kids a good start, have all gone extinct.
I feel bad for laughing at the father each time he falls 🤣 😂 😭 😅
The way he screams is so funny, sounds like me when I stub my toe
Just came from the funeral of a neighbour's ten months baby and I get to watch this clip. Every time the father penguin stumbled, I feared for the little chick. May it grow up to be a successful penguin dad too.
My condolences to the baby
NOT THE BABYYYY
When we compare ourselves to these magnificent creatures, our struggles seem so small
When the father fell down while walking with his baby😂
I thought from the title that the penguin made a speedy run seeing her child. Still a good shot. Thrilling
Nope, penguin races don't go faster than 3 kilometers per hour XD
Penguins are amazing creatures
My heart literally stopped when the female felled in to water.
I'm so glad she survived so she can return to her chick! 😍
only 20% of chicks even make it to year one in their life. and of that amount only 10% successfully breed. so most of those chicks either starve/freeze to death or are eaten by giant petrols. reality check
100 km?!! I know they hatched far from the sea to avoid predators but didn't expect it as far as 100 km
I thought the same. That is a ridiculous distance, they could go much closer and avoud to walk that much 🤷♀️
@@nataliemunoz8600 the seals come near the shore which can attack baby penguins.. To keep them safe babies are kept far from sea.
Sea ice stretches for a long distance. They don't have a choice, unless there is less sea ice to shorten the distance between the colony and the open sea.
Some time they dive even more
@@sadafrafiq5006 I get that they want to minimize the chance of predators, but still they can make it 50km rather that 100km
Yes please more of emperor penguin chicks 🥺🥺 they are so adorable
They barely have cheeks on their faces.
@@makelovenotwar9941 lol omg it was the auto correction lol 😂😂😂
The goofy music syncing up with the tail wag at the end is perfect.
Do any of them ever stop to wonder "There's got to be an easier way to do all this!"
And I'm thinking look at what these guys do in their life and they don't complain they just do but we have it easy and we do nothing but complain
no, they don't
I don't think there is, they can't really raise their youngs on the ice near water, because that ice is thin and can melt. So they need to raise them on the ice that is on actual land, but that means it's several kilometers away from the sea ^^'
Look where that got us
Fly, you fools.
-Gandalf
You can see how brave a mother is
My anxiety is gone after seeing this video. Cuteness overload! Such an adorable creature. 😍🐧
With what was at stake, this was excruciatingly intense.
I can't stop laughing at the sound he make when it's going to fall 4:17
penguin dad is so adorable
Damn... so many struggles and enemies.. these are an intelligence species to not have gone extinct already.
I'm never tired of watching this awesome beautiful creature
100 KM is equal to 2 marathon distances at 🐢 pace! Great parenting.
They seem so human, just the fact they're standing up
All are adorable.
Cuteness overloaded ❤️🐧 ❤️

Respect for Penguin 🐧!
i laughed so hard when the father trips. The music doesnt help. 😂😂

How the hell do they get such incredible footage?? That penguin hit a camera when escaping from the leopard seal and now I am insanely curious..

After watching the movie Happy Feet, you almost expect these penguins to start singing and dancing at any moment!
Молодец пингвинчик, успел выбраться и убежать! 🐧

4:21
The baby penguin’s little head is under his daddy’s tail.
Help im dying with cuteness
I hope I get to see Emperor Penguins in real life one day. They’re such amazing animals 🥰❤️
If only they lived at the North Pole as well, close to where I live 😅 If penguins walked the streets here during winter like pigeons I would hug so many of them haha
Do you by chance live in Greenland? 😊
0:04 omg it's so jiggling so cute😭❤️
Omg the voice of the chicks 🐥 melts my heart 😭🐧
same!! oh penguins, they are so lovely
Come honey save your little one
Love the penguins 😍❤️❤️
Oh my gosh my heart can't bear the intense scene when mother penguin is trying to get away from the seal🤣
Wow 😲🤩😍
Красавцы !
Spectacular imagery
😂😂😂 the yell everytime they fall
Ive been binge-watching these for 2 days
Just found that I am a penguin as I look after the baby and the mum hunt for food 😂
Cute
us humans needing a gps to go anywhere but these bros being unstopable
So this footage is heavily edited for dramatic effect (and they completely admit this and it's done on purpose, no wrong doing or anything). But some scenes are literally spliced and shopped together. So if you're like "Wow, how did they get that shot?!?!" it's that they didn't. The 2 seconds of a leopard seal sticking its head out of a hole? It's the same 2 seconds of footage EVERY time (both zoomed in and out), just cut into completely scenes of penguins slipping on ice.
🤣
Awww these penguin documentary made me love Penguins more
Sir Number one viewer ✌️
whoa, omg, I felt like my heart was going to burst out of my chest, she got away by the skin of her teeth
I love you all so much GOD bless you all😘🥰😍😍😘💖💖💖💖💖💖🙏🙏
very impressive, great material
O mundo incrível dos pinguins ...que vídeo fantástico BBC! Eu estava a torcer para que o predador não apanhasse nenhum nesta longa procura por comida...Este pai câmara é um pouco trapalhão lol...
vc esqueceu que eles falam engles nao e?...
this snow chick has survived everything i swear
That was actually scarier than a horrormovie!!. I was so hoping the seal would miss, and he did :D
And we complain about hard days in the comforts off our home where food comes 24/7..
I like the baby penguin❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No...this made me realise that every creature on this earth fight for their survival on this earth ..not only human beings.☺️
4:05 chick says be careful
beautiful
