Gentoo penguins at
Neko Harbor incubate
eggs in rocky nests
and tend their chicks
around a whale’s
vertebra—a reminder
of the Antarctic
Peninsula’s history of
commercial whaling.
Now, a century later,
whales are protected
and people fish instead
for krill, the main food
for whales, fish, seals,
and penguins.
