: Swiping Rocks
Jul 14, 2006

Some colonies on some beaches just don’t have enough rocks of the right size to go around among adelie nests. So they swipe them from each other. I had mentioned how they will play clips of adelie’s doing this in documentaries and someone asked to see one so here you go. This is a clip from Antarctica: IMAX of an adelie colony, complete with rock swiping and silly music.

    LOL the vid is so cute! and wallys gunna get them into truble i bet 😀

  2. G. T. Karber says:

    Everybody loves silly music. And I agree with CL, Wally is going to end up getting them into some heap of trouble!

  3. Phizlo says:

    Actually, I think Wally is going to be okay if he asks very, very, very politely because if he doesn’t . . . he’s gone.

  4. Canadian Mooseman says:

    I say wally goes up to the rocks, takes a couple walks off, osbone looks, tries to calm the big penguin down, and then gets pounded instead of wally.

  5. Phizlo says:

    Oh, yeah, I forgot, the video is very cool and the ending was the best part.

  6. BriaN says:

    Do they pronounce adelie right in the video? It sounds weird…

  7. Weird Lurker says:

    Nah, Wally is going to be fine. He’s a polar bear…and he did go through Polar Bear training. A polar bear can easily tear a penguin with no scratchy parts easily.

  8. Weird Lurker says:

    Oh shoot I take that back. If Wally avoids the feet he’s ok.

  9. Chad says:

    Hehe, whatever. Its Osborne’s world, all he has to do is punch that fat ol’ penguin in the face and make off with the loot. You know, cause Osborne’s a ninja and all…

  10. axis says:

    if wally taped his head i’m sure it would echo.

  11. Canadian Mooseman says:

    I bet…………….These polar bear secret society ninja dudes will fall outta the sky and help wally. Well maybe not.

  12. Canadian Mooseman says:

    I say the penguin looks tough for defense, but really couldn’t hurt a fly.

    hey! I’ve seen that IMAX Antarctica movie before!
    I saw it at the Pacific Science Center!
    They showed Emperor penguins on it too, but they didn’t give them silly music.

    well anyway great comic. no predictions from me.

    All hangs on how far they fell.

  15. Anonymous says:

    i think wally will ask that penguin for some rocks and end up with a sad face or a black eye

  16. Sheena says:

    Yeah, new comic! Cute video, but I predict that if Wally steals some of those rocks and Osbourne (which is his rightful name) tries to comfort that monster penguin, then this comic will probably have to be changed to Wally and Rocks.

  17. Sheena says:

    P.S. Hannah, how’s the movie?

  18. Canadian Mooseman says:

    Well, lets say these ninja dude just fall on top of the penguin and squish him.

  19. Phizlo says:

    If the huge penguin’s head echos, that means he’s stupid. So if he’s stupid, Wally could just take the rocks from him without him noticing.

    P.S. Could Max(Penguinus Maximus) be related to him?

  20. wendellwit says:

    NOW I see why you didn’t want to use the “On the Rocks” title anymore…

  21. Sev says:

    I say, Phizlo, why do you assume that just because the penguin is big and scary, he is stupid? That is a hurtful stereotype and I’d thank you not to make light of it.

  22. Canadian Mooseman says:

    WHen is the new comic arriving????!!!

  23. Canadian Mooseman says:

    NEW COMIC NEW COMIC!
