The fight to save the African penguin | BBC News


Every year there are fewer African penguins and soon there may be none at all.

Conservationists primarily blame the fishing industry for the decline in numbers, as penguins depend on the sardines and anchovies they catch and sell.

  1. I believe that we can live in a way where humans and animals can live together
    We can be sustainable I know we can do it I have faith we can live in a world where we are sustainable
    There is no I there is no we there is only us
    We are the future
    We are the past
    We are the present
    All these predictions that people make are to make us stronger
    Not to scaremonger
    We can live sustainable just believe

  2. Are you sure these penguins aren’t human of the human race. Check if they have a belly button and if so they liv. Period. Time to stop talking in animal code about humanities. Love JL Godbless

  3. Why does the Chinese government monopolize media and close comments? Because it makes it easier for the Chinese government to falsify traffic, falsify big data, and engage in information corruption! Maliciously excluding competitors! Vicious competition!

  5. Penguins are important but it seems the main stream media do not want to report of the withdrawal of the Astra Zeneca “ thing “ because of the harm it has caused . What a disgrace !

  7. It doesn`t matter what you say to the African government , most of the overfishing in those waters are done by the Chinese and they don`t listen to anybody

  8. Another foreigner presenting the British news, why!?
    Why is Barclays allowed to make adverts with foreigners and black people in them, being a UK company they should be ashamed of themselves, why are they allowed to be disrespectful to the white indigenous people of the UK, they are being racist, it's companies like this that are ruining the UK because their priorities lay with foreigners, they are making it difficult for the white indigenous people to live in crap, foreigner run UK!?
