Penguin Awareness Day

A day to celebrate and learn more about these amazing aquatic birds. Penguins are fascinating and adorable creatures, but they are also facing many threats, such as climate change, overfishing, pollution, and predators. The world’s second-largest colony of emperor penguins has nearly disappeared after changes in sea/ice conditions made their breeding ground unstable. The species might lose anywhere between 50% and 70% of its global population by the end of this century.
