Summary

Antarctic penguins are the "canary in the coal mine" for the effects of climate change on earth's organisms. Understanding how these creatures respond to their changing habitat informs environmental management strategies and conservation efforts. Oceanites is a non-profit research organization that oversees the seminal Antarctic Site Inventory project, which monitors penguin populations across the Antarctic Peninsula. Donate today to help Oceanites continue its important work.
