The Nicecosson Hunters


Tragic tale of the last Nicecosson penguins being hunted to extinction from the far reaches of the Congo. Cruel hunters lured them into the shallows of the river with promises of wealth and fame on "reality" TV programmes.

From the archive.

  4. Its always the way. You can travel the whole length of the Congo without seeing a single penguin these days.

    Reality TV has a lot to answer for.

  6. I have a few exhibited in the local library as it seemed appropriate. No response from the librarians as yet!
