As it turns out there was a very good reason why this Emperor Penguin was “taken into captivity”. It was seriously suffering. It should have been obvious to any thinking birdwatcher that an Emperor Penguin very much out of its normal territory could be in trouble. However, it seems that some of our esteemed birdwatchers are more interested in encouraging harassment of the bird rather than its wellbeing.
It seems that twitching rules after all.
