Fox News presenter Neil Cavuto said: "What I found offensive is that they shove this in a kids' movie – you hear the penguins are starving because of mean old man, mean old companies."

I saw March Of The Penguins. Penguins die every year because they live in a harsh environment and don't eat for MONTHS at a time.

The Shakleton expedition also got stuck for 2 years in such a harsh climate. Miraculously none of the crew died while they were stuck down there. Death is NATURAL. Everything dies eventually. March of the Penguins showed death. Shouldn't the filmmakers have been chastised for not doing enough to save the penguins?

Does Happy Feet include the threats to penguins that do not include men and corporations?

Yes, including Skuas, (Seagulls), Leopard Seals, Killer Whales, and the danger of letting an egg cool.

If anyone should be upset, it should be the photographers of "March of the Penguins," who had to undergo the same ordeals as the penguins they were photographing.

The "Happy Feet" people just used computers.
