PENGUINS MOVE THROUGH THE OCEAN LIKE THEY'VE GOT TESLA GPS Magellanic penguins travel over 1,200 miles for food, then navigate back to where they started through ocean currents, with no maps, no visuals, and no drama. Instead of fighting the current like a rookie, they use it. In strong tides, they steer with the flow to save energy, even if it means going the long way around. It’s like getting swept away in a lazy river, but still ending up exactly where your towel is on the beach. Researchers found that 85% of penguins nailed their return within 300 meters; a 99.4% accuracy rate over 31 miles. Source: Global Penguin Society, India Today
