Rapes also exist in the animal kingdom. A shocking video documents such an incident now on the Antarctic island of Marion Iceland. The pictures leave people speechless.
Usually, sea lions hunt penguins. The strange behavior of this animal, however, researchers can not explain. The video shows a sea lion raping a penguin. The shots are repulsive and strange.
The penguin has no chance to fight back. He tries to peck the sea lion a few times with his beak, then he gives up. The sea lion has trapped the animal under it, more than 100 kilograms are weighing on the penguin who lies helplessly on the ground.
The other penguins are watching in disbelief as the species is being raped by the sea lion. The scenario also seems alien to them, it is extremely rare that rapes between sea lion and penguin occur.
