EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a Kodak jar filled with small, weathered pebbles, a unique and intriguing artifact from the imperial realm of Emperor Penguins (Aptenodytes forsteri). Collected during the historic Scotts British Antarctic Expedition of 1910-1913, led by the legendary explorer Robert Falcon Scott, these pebbles were discovered inside the stomach of an Emperor Penguin. The Scotts British Antarctic Expedition was a groundbreaking scientific endeavor, with a broad program aimed at collecting thousands of geological and zoological specimens from the uncharted territories of Antarctica. This particular specimen, signed by Browning and dated September 20, 1911, was carefully stored in an empty film container, preserving its integrity for future study. Emperor Penguins, members of the Spheniscidae family within the class Aves and subclass Sauropsida, are renowned for their impressive size and resilience in the harsh Antarctic environment. The presence of these pebbles in their stomachs is still a subject of scientific debate, with theories suggesting they may aid in the digestion of their food or serve as a form of ballast. This evocative studio shot offers a glimpse into the wonders of the natural world, as well as the rich history of scientific exploration. The Kodak jar, filled with the ancient pebbles from an Emperor Penguin's stomach, is a testament to the enduring curiosity and dedication of the scientists who braved the unknown to expand our knowledge of the natural world.
