Penguin Decline: Researchers report that occupied chinstrap nests on Zavodovski Island in the South Sandwich Islands fell 63% between 2011 and 2025, with more than half a million birds lost; they link the decline to human-driven climate change. Albatross Research: A study warns black-browed albatross numbers have dropped 67% in 64 years and that climate change could outpace the species’ ability to adapt. Species Science: Researchers have described Kerguelen gentoo penguins as a new species, genetically distinct from the gentoo penguins found in the Falklands.
