Chapter 110 Extra 1: I heard that there are two male emperor penguins who like to help other emperor penguins raise their children.

March, Antarctica. A

group of busy and slow figures are moving slowly on the white ice field.

These figures are all black from above, but once you get closer and observe from the front, you will find that this dense group of slowly moving animals is the most common group of animals in Antarctica - emperor penguins.

Emperor penguins are the tallest among all penguins.

Their most prominent feature is the orange scarf on their chest, which covers their ears, and even their beaks are beautiful orange.

As the coldest season in Antarctica is approaching, this group of well-fed emperor penguins have also embarked on their annual migration journey - heading to the distant breeding area to welcome their upcoming estrus and prepare for reproduction.

Among this group of emperor penguins that look exactly the same and are almost difficult to tell apart with the naked eye, two emperor penguins seem a little out of place.

Oh.

It's not that they are unsociable.

It's that when other emperor penguins are still worrying about their partners this year, they have already started mating.

The drone in the sky lowered, and the two figures behind the soldiers quickly broke into the camera.

They are two male emperor penguins.

This is not the first time that drones have captured the two of them mating. As early as last year, when filming this group of emperor penguins, a photographer recorded this scene.

Originally, they analyzed that the two emperor penguins had entered the estrus period early, but after careful comparison, they soon discovered that the two emperor penguins were both male.

In other words, the two male emperor penguins were not a pair.

After that, the photographers who followed them would always take pictures and videos of them together every now and then.

It was not until the large group of emperor penguins completed their annual breeding and left their breeding grounds with the young emperor penguins to the feeding area that the photographers completely lost track of the two emperor penguins.

But because of these two unique emperor penguins, photographers will inevitably pay more attention to them.

As the emperor penguins are about to breed and mate, the photographers immediately came with their equipment.

What makes them even happier is that they also saw these two unique guys this year.

But obviously, these two unique guys don't seem to like the photographers that much.

When Ye Yunian noticed the drones rumbling overhead, he immediately raised his head and sprayed at the drones in the sky.

Enough!

Still filming!

I filmed many times last year, and you still want to film this year. Are you done yet?

Ye Yunian was really angry.

The moment Song Yi realized that her boyfriend was angry, she got off Ye Yunian and jumped up to the sky.

Of course.

Although penguins have big wings, their big wings are used for swimming and fighting, and they don't have the ability to fly.

So although Song Yi wanted to get the drone down very much, he was powerless at this time.

But her boyfriend couldn't help but comfort her!

So Song Yi simply picked up a small stone on the snow and threw it towards the sky with all his strength.

This kind of attack certainly didn't hurt or itch for the drone.

But Ye Yunian was the first to stop watching.

Forget it!

We adults don't remember the mistakes of small people, so let's not bother with them!

Ye Yunian hurried over and gently bit Song Yi's wing with his beak.

Song Yi understood what Ye Yunian meant in an instant, stopped his actions, and looked at Ye Yunian with his dark eyes, as if asking: Are you not angry anymore?

Ye Yunian rubbed Song Yi with his head.

No matter how many animals he turned into, Ye Yunian's favorite act of acting coquettish has not changed.

He rubbed Song Yi slowly with his head, humming a bunch of words.

Except Song Yi, no one understood what Ye Yunian wanted to express.

Ye Yunian said, of course he was angry!

But compared to being angry with this group of irrelevant humans, the most important thing for them now is to conserve their energy.

After all, the cold winter is coming soon, and they spent a whole summer to make themselves fat. How can they waste their unnecessary energy because of just a few humans?

And more importantly, the next snowstorm is coming, and they have to find a place to keep warm quickly!

Otherwise, all the good places will be occupied by other emperor penguins.

The climate in Antarctica is harsh.

In order to resist the severe snowstorms, the penguins keep warm by huddling together.

They will form a huge circle with a few penguins as the center, and the other penguins will follow the three outer layers inside to keep warm.

The deeper the circle goes, the higher the temperature will naturally be.

Song Yi raised his head to feel the wind, and found that there was indeed more broken snow in the wind.

He no longer hesitated, and hurried out from behind the hill with Ye Yunian, and then quickly approached their tribe.

The snowstorm raged for three consecutive days.

In this way, the emperor penguins survived the worst weather during the three long days.

Of course,

not all emperor penguins survived safely. Some

were blown away by the blizzard.

Once they lost the warmth of the group, their body temperature dropped rapidly and they would never be able to open their eyes again.

Fortunately, Ye Yunian and Song Yi were lucky.

Although the speed of moving back to the group was very slow, the two chubby emperor penguins still found a position for each other that was not too special. They were surrounded by their own kind, so they only suffered a little from the ice and snow on their heads.

And because of Song Yi, Ye Yunian didn't even have to endure this little bit of hardship.

The moment the doting Song Yi noticed the snowflakes falling, he spread his wings and motioned Ye Yunian to come in.

Song Yi's wings were warm and soft, protecting Ye Yunian from all the wind and snow.

When the wind and snow ended, their migration continued.

The photographers followed the group of emperor penguins until they arrived at their breeding area a month later.

The breeding area of ​​emperor penguins is very fixed, and they return to their birthplace almost every year.

As time comes to April, the male emperor penguins that arrived early will start to build nests, and then wait for the later batch of female emperor penguins to arrive.

When all the female emperor penguins arrived, the continental shelf was filled with the sounds of courtship.

But there were always two exceptions -

these two emperor penguins were Ye Yunian and Song Yi.

They were the first male emperor penguins to arrive here, so they had a lot of time and more nesting materials.

These two emperor penguins were indeed excellent, and the nest they built was undoubtedly the most beautiful and best-looking of all the emperor penguins!

But this nest did not welcome the arrival of females.

Whenever a female emperor penguin was attracted by this sturdy nest and settled in front of it, before the female emperor penguin could make any move, Song Yi would suddenly appear and chase her away.

Come one, chase one.

Come a group, chase a group.

In short, all emperor penguins except Ye Yunian were not allowed to approach the nest.

Gradually, the other female emperor penguins also understood.

It seems that these two emperor penguins are two stubborn people.

So the female emperor penguins no longer spend unnecessary time on them, and Ye Yunian and Song Yi are even happier.

When the temperature drops again, most emperor penguins have found their love objects for this year.

Female emperor penguins will lay an egg in May, and then hand the egg over to the male emperor penguin to incubate.

The hungry female emperor penguins will soon go to the open sea to hunt, and Ye Yunian and Song Yi will also catch up with their team at this time.

Yes.

These two penguins, who do not breed with the opposite sex but are gay, also feel hungry and it is time to go out to find food.

After all, emperor penguins cannot live away from their group in their entire lives.

The bad weather in Antarctica is partly the reason, and another part of the reason is naturally because of the natural enemies living in this sea area!

You know, when Ye Yunian first learned that he had turned into an emperor penguin, he was actually a little devastated.

After all, he had been the overlord of the ocean in his previous life, so of course he knew how delicious penguin meat is!

So in order to maximize their survival rate, Ye Yunian and Song Yi will not leave the group at will.

Fortunately, because they were killer whales in their previous life, Ye Yunian and Song Yi are familiar with the sea area where the big guys stayed the longest.

As long as they try to avoid those dangerous waters, their survival rate will naturally increase significantly.

This time the feeding time is a long two months.

Until the little penguins are about to be born, the female emperor penguins will embark on the return journey.

Ye Yunian and Song Yi are naturally full at this time, and they go back with the main force.

However.

This time when they go back, Ye Yunian and Song Yi have stored a lot of food in their stomachs.

Because every time they go out hunting, it means the coming of a danger.

And not every penguin is so lucky, there will always be some penguins that can never go back to see their children.

Since last year, Ye Yunian and Song Yi began to feed the little penguins in their tribe.

This year, there are also a group of male penguins who have been waiting for a long time for their partners.

Although there are only two penguins, Ye Yunian and Song Yi, and their power is very small, but because of their existence, two little penguins will also be reborn.

The male emperor penguin obviously doesn't know what the two male penguins want to do, but considering that they are willing to feed their children, and they are in urgent need of food after incubating eggs for two consecutive months, the two fathers still handed their children to Ye Yunian and Song Yi. The

newly born little penguins can't protect themselves from the cold. If they leave the feet of Ye Yunian and Song Yi, they will be frozen.

Ye Yunian and Song Yi share the food they have stored with the two little penguins.

The next time their biological father returns, it will be time for Ye Yu Nian and Song Yi to go out foraging again.

The photographers recorded all the scenes they saw.

After some editing, these videos quickly became popular on the Internet.

When people saw the two gay animals again, they said without thinking:

"Why don't we name them Yu Nian and Song Yi?"

"I think it's okay!"

"Hahahahahaha, this name again! This name again! But, I do like these two names very much."

"Who doesn't like it! After all, they are Yu Nian and Song Yi!"

...

The discussion on the Internet is still going on, and the lives of the emperor penguins Ye Yu Nian and Song Yi are also continuing to go on happily.
