Recently, an old video of a penguin couple holding hands while walking along the beach in South Africa resurfaced and went viral once again. This heartwarming scene is so romantic that it can make even the loneliest of souls envious.
Some individuals humorously comment on why these marine animals locate their partners, but they don’t. I can’t stop laughing when reading these funny comments.
Both stroll alongside each other. They also stop to glance at each other for a time. Time appears to stop for minutes there. The scene (nature and pets) softens the toughest parts of our hearts. It turns out happiness is easy.
Norma Landeros-Ramirez captured these beautiful moments after she and her husband got on their honeymoon.
The penguin couple’s wonderful gesture left them astonished. The newlyweds wished they could also have peaceful days together like the penguins.
“Since my husband and I are newlyweds, I wanted to see the penguins because I have heard that they keep one partner for life, so it seemed fitting,” Norma said.
As you may recognize, penguins are extremely loyal birds. The bond between the male and female is so strong. Gentoo penguins, one of the penguin’s most faithful and monogamous types, pair up with the same partner in every breeding season to almost 90%.
The interesting point is that penguins split up over winter. They travel as much as 10,000 miles a year to seek their love. They get back together in the same nest and produce brand-new chicks.
