A footage of wild animals' daily activities in Antarctica during an ongoing mission of China's 36th Antarctic expedition was released on Sunday.

The footage captures an interesting encounter between a group of Adelie penguins and two skuas. After looking at each other for a while, the penguins approached the skuas, and chased one of them after the skua fled in horror to keep a safe distance.

The footage also shows the environment in Antarctica. It is filmed by a CCTV reporter accompanying the expedition on Chinese research icebreaker Xuelong.

Xuelong and another Chinese polar icebreaker Xuelong 2 reached the waters near the Zhongshan Station in Antarctica on Wednesday.
