On June 23,2000,a ship called MV Treasure sank(沉沒) near Cape Town,South Africa.More than a thousand tons of oil(原油) went into the ocean.It polluted the natural home of nearly all African penguins.About 20,000 African penguins,half of the world's penguins were covered with oil and as a result they couldn't swim or walk properly.It was very possible that day came to help save these birds.The rescue was successful because 45,000 people offered to give their time and energy,for free,to the rescue.
The rescue was a success,but it wasn't easy.First,people had to catch the penguins and took them to a special rescue centre. When the penguins got there,they stayed in a quiet place for several days so that they could get used to their new"home".During this time and the next three months,people had to feed the penguins.It wasn't easy to find enough fish to feed 20,000 many people got wounds(傷口) on their arms from penguin bites.
After that,they had to take the oil off the penguins' feathers.People tried to wash each penguin and then made it dry.They did it again and again until there was no more oil on the penguin.It took two people at least an hour just to clean one penguin.Then they put the penguins in pools to swim every day until their feathers got well completely.
"The Great Penguin Rescue" is the world's biggest rescue of live animals.It's a moving story because so many people took part in the rescue and showed that they really cared about saving wild animals.
