On January 21, more than 2.5 million people across all seven continents marched in protest for equality, in response to a Donald Trump presidency.
But, while protesters filled the streets, listening to speeches on stages from San Francisco to Strasbourg, one cannot help but wonder: what did the protests on the earth's seventh continent look like?
Luckily, the Women's March on Antarctica was well documented on Twitter by Linda Zunas, a data analytics professional from California, who organised the event.
Zunas told the Independent a group of 30 "eco-minded" visitors to the continent travelling on the same boat would be taking part in the march.

Members of the group are aged between 24 to 87, and come from six countries.
"I set it up because I wanted to participate in the Women's March," she said. "I spent a month after the election mourning the impending damage to the earth that will be done. I felt like I needed to do something to be part of the global movement."

The group marched briefly in Paradise Bay, so as not to disturb the natural environment.
"[The march] was about 30 feet [nine metres] along an established tourist trail," she told USA Today
In the lead up to the event, Zunas had tweeted that she wanted to register her Women's March on Antarctica on the movement's website, but the region was not listed as an option.

However, this was remedied by January 20, when the Women's March tweeted the march would be extending to Antarctica, meaning events were to be held on all seven continents.

In a tweet, Zunas said the march was "non-political", but "pro-peace" and "pro-environment".
While all of the pictures from the march are kind of incredible, two particular protesters stand out.

Let it be known that the Women's March was attended by 2.5 million people... and two penguins.
