African Penguins: A Conservation Crisis
The African Penguin, an iconic South African seabird, is now listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
Conservation experts warn that without urgent intervention, the species could disappear from the wild by 2035.
Penguin Palooza Event
CapeNature, in partnership with SANCCOB, will host the annual 'Penguin Palooza' event at Stony Point Nature Reserve on November 8th, starting at 10am.
The free, family-friendly event aims to raise awareness about the decline of the African Penguin and celebrate ongoing conservation efforts.
According to CapeNature, the African Penguin population in South Africa has fallen to fewer than 8,750 breeding pairs, shrinking by roughly 8% each year.
