More than 60,000 penguins have starved to death off the coast of South Africa
as a result of collapsing sardine numbers, according to a new study.
From 2004 to 2011, more than 95 per cent of the African penguins on Dassen Island and Robben Island died.
Researchers said they probably died during the moulting period, the annual event where they replace all their feathers at once over a number of weeks.
The climate crisis and overfishing have been attributed to driving…

62,000 Penguins Starved to Death Off South Africa's Coast Last Decade. Here's Why.
A brutal confluence of environmental change and human fishing habits left tens of thousands of adult African penguins off South Africa's coast without enough food to survive, reducing their population by around 95 percent in just eight years, a new study reveals.

Endangered penguins living off South Africa's coast have likely
starved en masse due to food shortages, a study said,
with some populations dropping by 95% in just eight years.
Fewer than 10,000 breeding pairs of the small, black and white African penguin are left globally,
according to scientists,
and the species was listed as critically endangered last year by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Two of the most important breedi…

Antarctica’s collapse may already be unstoppable, scientists warn
Researchers warn Antarctica is undergoing abrupt changes that could trigger global consequences. Melting ice, collapsing ice shelves, and disrupted ocean circulation threaten sea levels, ecosystems, and climate stability. Wildlife such as penguins and krill face growing extinction risks. Scientists stress that only rapid emission reductions can avert irreversible damage.
