CAPE TOWN, South Africa - COVID-19 lockdown made it easy for these penguins to venture through an empty South African town A group of adorable penguins were captured taking a stroll through an empty neighborhood in Cape Town, South Africa, as people stayed home due to COVID-19 lockdown orders.
Local resident Mikaela Slier filmed a video of the three penguins waddling down an empty street. Slier told Storyful that the creatures are a normal sight for locals. “To feed themselves, the penguins need to move to and from the ocean (to their nests) via the roads/streets, which is an issue for us on any normal day,” Slier said.
