A Royal Albatross Can Fly for 13 Straight Months Into the Wild New Zealand

After 13 months and around 120,000 miles, a male Northern Royal albatross finally arrives home: the windswept headland of Taiaroa Head. It’s the place where he was born and likely the only ground he’ll ever touch in his life. Free to watch on Dr.Doc Kids.
