Lewis Hamilton trains with penguins and sea lion

Lewis Hamilton is one of those people who love animals so much. Whether it's strolling with his dog, Roscoe, or advocating for meat-less diets – the F1 legend is as friendly as the animals he loves spending time with.

Before entering into the new Formula 1 season, Hamilton has traveled to Antarctica, which he describes in one clip as ‘the most beautiful place I’ve ever been.'

And in another, the seven-time world champion is seen running through the snow before panning round to show some penguins in shot.

One sea lion is even kind enough to look up for the camera as Hamilton turns his phone around to show the incredible backdrop.

“Out for a run here,” he says before showing his new friends. “Penguins! Hey, guys.”

“It’s a beautiful storm, guys.”

Hamilton has long been applauded by many animal rights organisations for inspiring his legions of fans to follow his lead, jump-start their own energy levels, and spare animals’ lives by going vegan.

And Antarctica is just another stop after a year that saw him training with surfing legend Kelly Slater, as well as solo skydiving in between races.

That cold weather training may come in handy for the 37-year-old, while many of his rivals take to warmer climates to prepare for the season which kicks off in Bahrain on March 3.

Before that, though, there’s testing at the Sakhir circuit from February 24 to 26, while Hamilton and George Russell’s W14 challenger will be launched on February 15.

Whether the penguins will be around for the Mercedes unveiling is yet to be announced.

The Best Fish Feed in Nigeria for Catfish: Why Quality Matters

A few months ago, I visited a fish farm run by an ambitious aquapreneur who had high hopes for his homemade fish feed. His pond was large, his vision clear: this feed would cut costs, boost growth, and drive profitability. But within a week, disaster struck. Fish floated belly-up. Growth stalled. The numbers didn’t add up. The problem wasn’t the fish. It was the feed. The catfish were growing exactly as they were fed: poorly. Just as fish can’t flourish on empty calories, a farm can’t succeed on subpar feed. The right nutrition makes the difference between a thriving business and a sinking investment. In Nigeria’s competitive catfish farming industry, choosing the best feed isn’t just about cost, it’s about protein content, digestibility, floatability, and growth performance. The wrong feed leads to stunted growth, higher mortality, and lost profits. The right one maximizes yield, health, and market value. In this article, we’ll explore:...

How Much Does It Really Cost to Start a Catfish Farm in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt in 2025?

After the Nigerian government hinted at a possible ban on fish importation , my inbox began to fill with a familiar question from would-be fish farmers in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt: “Can I start a catfish farm now and do it for less?” It’s a timely concern. With import restrictions looming and demand for locally raised fish climbing, 2025 could be a turning point for Nigeria’s aquaculture industry. But while the opportunity is real, the path to profitability depends on where you set up, how lean your operations are, and whether you can balance cost-cutting with quality production. A Market on the Edge of Change Nigeria needs an estimated 3.2 million metric tonnes of fish annually. Yet local production meets barely 30% of that demand. The rest comes from imports mainly mackerel, sardines, and tilapia; worth over ₦500 billion annually. A potential import ban would create an immediate supply gap, and catfish is perfectly positioned to fill it. Already a staple in Nigerian homes and...
