The Great Penguin Rescue

Description: Michaela Strachan has lived in her adopted home of Cape Town, South Africa, for 10 years, more than enough time for the penguins on the peninsula to have found a special place in her heart. `The Great Penguin Rescue' follows the wildlife presenter and conservation enthusiast's efforts to help save the only endemic penguin species to South Africa. She joins forces with the South African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds, which annually rescues hundreds of penguin chicks whose parents have been unable to feed them because of adverse conditions. For a frenetic six weeks, Michaela becomes a very hands-on mum to many of the demanding chicks, which must be cared for, taught survival skills and ultimately released back into the wild.
