      Haha yeah they probably are, they are just super curious. So they are probably enjoying having something different to look at

      They have few natural predators so they tend to not fear humans since they typically dont have to worry about being hunted by anything. Additionally the only humans they will ever likely encounter are various types of scientists and maybe some others dealing with logistics of Antarctic bases who pose no threat to them. It is highly unlikely for poachers to hunt penguins on any large scale due to remote region and restrictions so they are unlikely to become a target of human hunting either, they will likely never form a fear of humans for these reasons.

Do you have to apply years in advance, or be a specialist in some area? Is it limited for citizens of countries that have signed the Antarctic Treaty? If you've covered my question in a video, then excuse me for asking as I've just arrived at your channel. /All the Best

    Hello WildKiwiAdventurer, Your videos are fabulous! I am a Physical Therapist working with students in a Special Needs school in Michigan, USA, and during this COVID 19 time of school closure, we are using videos for our primary means of instruction. We are currently creating a series of videos which introduce our students to locations around the world, and we incorporate the PT component by inviting them to move along with us as we explore the locations. I am wondering if we could use some of your Antarctica footage in our segment on cold locations? Would love to show the penguins... I think students would enjoy imitating their movements as part of their exercise program!
