More than 60,000 penguins are dying of hunger
More than 60,000 African penguins are dying off the coast of South Africa due to a severe shortage of sardines. Research shows that penguins cannot survive without eating during molting, but a lack of food is not enough to survive. Their numbers have declined by about 80 percent in the past three decades. Researchers are trying to create safe habitats using fake penguins and ducks to save the penguins, but in the long term, the only solution is to increase the number of sardines in the ocean.
