Chinstrap Penguin Tracking
Read more of: Chinstrap Penguin TrackingThe study aimed to map penguin foraging ranges during the breeding season to assess whether existing 50 km coastal fishing exclusion zones adequately protect these krill-dependent seabirds from potential competition with the Antarctic krill fishery.
