Emperor penguins have suffered a “catastrophic breeding failure” after extreme loss of sea ice last year.

According to a recent study, more than 90% of emperor penguin colonies are predicted to be all but extinct by the end of the century.
You’ve heard about Antarctic sea ice lows - well, here’s the consequences.

Over 9,000 emperor penguin chicks from colonies in the Bellingshausen Sea are thought to have died in November 2022.

The sea ice they lived on broke up early, before they'd developed waterproof feathers. - British Antarctic Survey 🐧
