Protecting the Wildlife with Land Mines

In the Falkan Islands, there’s a bunch of land mines left over from some war. Normally, that’s a bad thing, but for a bunch of penguins in mating season, it’s a great thing.

Since they’re too light to trigger the mines, they can run around freely, while predators, people, and sheep (which compete for resources) stay away.

That’s pretty cool.
