Thanks for the heads up Tony!

It's a serious problem down there I'm afraid :-(

There are vast factory ships for harvesting krill and although there are quotas in place enforcement in a location as remote as Antarctica is an issue.

On a lighter note I'm sure there are Gentoo advocates who will be pleased to read this :

"Most species of penguin swim between 4mph and 7mph, but Gentoos can top 20mph."
