The reason to worry about Antarctica than global warming - sexual harassment. Scientists who have been documenting wildlife in the
sub-Antarctic Marion Island reportedly witnessed multiple incidents where fur seals were sexually harassing penguins
The study titled "Multiple occurrences of king penguin (Aptenodytes patagonicus) sexual harassment by Antarctic fur seals
(Arctocephalus gazella)" published in "Polar Biology" describes four separate occurrences of sexual coercion of kin penguins by Antarctic fur seals.
Male and female penguins mate through an opening called the cloaca, but the seals are found to have penetrated the birds aggressively
in some of the acts, which have been caught on film.
All known sexual incidents followed a pattern, wherein a seal chased, captured and then engaged in sexual penetration with the penguin.
The seals are said to have attempted copulation multiple times with resting periods in between. Each time, the copulation is said to have lasted about five minutes.
While three of the four times the seal let its sexual partner go, in one case, the seal killed and ate the penguin after mating with it.
