Title: Lots of deadbeat dads out there in the wild but gotta give props to this dad
Post by: theking on February 06, 2024, 06:41:30 PM

The father has to keep the egg warm for more than two months without food or water until Spring. In spring, the chick hatches. It is covered in woolly down, and snuggles between its father's legs to keep warm. The father hasn't eaten for 125 days, and can't go to feed until the chick's mother returns.
