Description: The title is 'Sunset...' Two people watch a swimming race. Two of the contestants disappear over the horizon while the third flounders in the shallows. The first and second contestants are 'Happy Feet' and the 'Tri-Nations' and the third is ACT who appears to be drowning. Context: Happy Feet is the Emperor penguin who beached at Peka Peka Beach, was rescued and cared for by vets at Wellington Zoo and was then released into the wild to find his way back to the Antarctic from whence he came. On August 28 the All Blacks were defeated by the Australian Wallabies 25-20 which casts a shadow over Rugby World Cup hopes. The reference to the ACT Party is about its dismal polling results in the run up to the 2011 elections. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
