According to the UK's "Metropolis Daily", a set of heartbreaking photos showed that hundreds of penguin corpses were row on the beach. Last week, a subtropical cyclone in southern Brazil caused severe damage, causing a variety of animals, including turtles and birds. About 622 penguins were rushed to the sand, of which 596 had died. Animal -related volunteers who found penguin corpses said they were not sure how these penguins died. Some penguins' bodies have been severely rotted, which shows that they may die before they are rushed ashore. There are also some penguins who are killed because of the strong waves caused by the hurricane.
Magellan Penguin usually migrates from the French Islands, Argentina and Chile to San Catalina from June to October each year. These penguins prefer to find food in warm waters near Brazil. However, this journey of migration is usually very difficult. Many penguins, especially the younger penguins, will die during the migration, and those penguins who have successfully reached San Catina are usually weak. Tired, dehydrated.
Coupled with the coming of the hurricane, many penguins lost their chances of survival. Scientists warn that due to climate change, extreme weather events are becoming more and more frequent. Scientists at the University of Cambridge recently published a paper saying that they have sufficient reasons to suspect that climate change may lead to a global disaster. The team hopes that governments of various countries can conduct further research and take more actions to avoid the "four knights" of the climate, that is, famine and malnutrition, extreme weather, war conflict, and infectious diseases.
