African penguins are starving to death in South Africa and researchers just confirmed what's
killing them. The fishing industry has been taking all their food. There are now fewer
than ten thousand breeding pairs left. Scientists tracked these endangered penguins from 2016
to 2019 and compared their movements with fishing boat activity. The overlap was
devastating. When boats fish in the same areas where penguins hunt, the birds can't
find enough food to survive. Sixty thousand penguins have already died from starvation.
The National Aviary is stepping in to help, but without changing where fishing happens,
these birds could disappear completely. We're literally fishing them into extinction.
