In January last year, a 26-second clip featuring two colonies of penguins briefly stopping for a “chat” while on their way to and from the sea took the internet by storm. The clip was reportedly captured from the Falkland Islands in South America. The clip, which garnered more than 6 million views, also prompted hilarious reactions among netizens.
