Pollution, habitat loss, fishing and climate change as critical threats to penguins [PDF]

, 2014
Cumulative human impacts across the world’s oceans are considerable. We therefore examined a single model taxonomic group, the penguins (Spheniscidae), to explore how marine species and communities might be at risk of decline or extinction in the ...

Non‐Passerine Birds in Zoos: A Global Approach on Distribution Patterns of Threatened Birds in Zoological Institutions 动物园中非雀形目鸟类:全球动物机构中受威胁鸟类的分布模式研究

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 600-615, December 2025.
Only 1541 (34.2%) of 4503 recognized non‐passerine bird species are held in ZIMS institutions worldwide. Approximately ~83% of the species kept globally are classified as non‐threatened and ~16% as threatened. To improve the conservation of threatened birds, a shift toward keeping threatened species should be considered within ex situ management ...

Environmental and Evolutionary Forces Shaping Penguin Geographic Limits

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Penguins are seabirds exclusively found in the Southern Hemisphere, with their existence dating back to the late Cretaceous. Despite their exceptional dispersal capabilities, which allow them to inhabit a wide range of environments—from polar regions to temperate zones, and even near the Equator—penguins are absent in the Northern ...

Assessment of a Social Media‐Based Method for Determining Raptor Diet

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
This study mined social media as a citizen science method to reduce the time burden and biases associated with recording accurate diet information for predators. In total, 1985 prey observations were recorded of two Australian coastal raptors and were used to produce diet profiles that were compared by region, social media platform, and against other ...
