This bird thrives where icy oceans meet some of the harshest coastlines on Earth.
The Imperial Shag is a seabird of southern South America and nearby subantarctic islands. An expert diver, it plunges beneath cold waters to catch fish, crustaceans, and other marine prey, using its powerful feet to propel itself through the sea.
A master of wind, waves, and ice, perfectly adapted to life at the edge of the world.
