On June 23, 2000, the iron ore carrier MV "Treasure "foundered off
the coast of Cape Town, South Africa, spilling 1,300 tons of oil
into the ocean and contaminating the habitat of 75,000
penguins--thus threatening to decimate 41 percent of the world's
population of African penguins. A massive rescue effort was
launched, with penguin expert Dyan deNapoli--better known as The
Penguin Lady--serving as a rehabilitation supervisor. By the end of
a grueling, but ultimately rewarding, three months, she and her
fellow volunteers had de-oiled, nursed back to health, and released
into the wild nearly all of the affected birds. "The Great Penguin
Rescue "is the extraordinary and heartwarming true story of the
world's largest and most successful wildlife rescue and a moving
portrait of these captivating birds.
