Emperor Penguins Colonies

Colonies of emperor penguin chicks were wiped out last year as global warming eroded their icy homes, a study published Thursday found, despite the birds' attempts to adapt to the shrinking landscape.

Satellite photographs of one of the most remote and inaccessible parts of Antarctica have revealed a recently discovered emperor penguin colony.

Emperor penguins are in danger of dramatic declines by the end of the century due to climate change, says a study, suggesting the iconic animal "fully deserving of endangered status due to climate change".
