Did you know? Breeding chinstrap penguins, according to new research, take more than 10,000 naps a day — and each #nap is only about 4 seconds long. Altogether, it totals to be around 11 hours a day. 🐧 💤 Penguin parents have to safeguard the incubating eggs by themselves while their partners are off foraging, and to do that — and still get their beauty sleep — they zap-nap prodigiously. Researchers said the discovery is “unprecedented, even among penguins.” We have nothing but admiration and respect for these hardworking parent penguins! 🐧🐧 Please enjoy this series of images of #chinstrappenguins doin' very important #penguin stuff. 📷 credits on last slide.
