BBC Crew Filming Baby Penguins Had To Deal With a Tough Dilemma

    Text - Mr Moon Follow @MrMoonUK Right, that's it. That baby penguin on #Dynasties failing to climb out of the icy ravine after being abandoned by its mother has just finished me off. I'm phoning in sick at work, tomorrow. 12:42 PM - 18 Nov 2018 27 Retweets 252 Likes

My dad told her to calm down and she just shouted "He's gonna die, Darren!". Luckily the penguin survived, she would be in tears if it died 12:49 PM - 18 Nov 2018 4 Retweets 189 Likes

    Text - Dominic Jermey Follow @DomJermey Three cheers to the @BBCEarth camera crew for digging a little ramp to save those penguins and their babies...! Remarkable work all round, but extra thanks for giving nature a tiny helping hand. We need to give nature all the helping hands we can. #Dynasties #BBC 1:02 PM - 18 Nov 2018 24 Retweets 196 Likes

    Text - Matthew Carter Follow @MatthewCarteriO So glad the crew decided to act and save the penguins in the ravine. There's always the "don't interfere with nature" argument, but humanity does plenty to destroy it, so we can also give a helping hand if opportunity presents. #Dynasties 1:02 PM - 18 Nov 2018 37 Retweets 377 Likes
