Pick up a penguin orphan
Date: 04-Nov-08
Country: SOUTH AFRICA
Author: Paul Chapman
The baby African penguins have been rescued by volunteers from islands around the Western Cape to be hand reared and later released back to their home colonies.
They eat only a few types of fish whose numbers are falling, partly because of natural conditions and possibly because of commercial fishing.
