 > Adelie penguin chick chase.
Many baby penguin chicks spend a lot of time chasing their parents (or other adult penguins) across the rocks. Parents penguins can recognize their young and will only feed their own chicks. Many adults are chased by several chicks at a time, but the babies not belonging to the adults would eventually quit the chase, allowing the parent to then feed the chosen one.
