Because of climate changes, the population of penguins in Antartica are in jeperody from global warming. For some penguins, global warming is taking away precious areas which is where they raise their babies. However, for others food is becoming increasingly in short supply because global warming is in conjunction with overfishing. Now the penguins are in a tough battle to adapt to the unpredictable changing weather. Also for many years, sea ice has been breaking off earlier than they are supposed to (because of climate changes) and many chicks and eggs have drifted away before being able to survive on their own causing them to die by not having anyone to take care of them or feed them. This is a sad and depressing thing to happen and i hope that penguins don't become extinct and that penguins will still be here in the future.
