🐘🦣Wild Animals🐘🦣

What’s not to love about wild animals? And I for one believe that they should stay in the wild and not be kicked out by man. There are numerous different wild animals, and we all have our favourites. I love the big cats, penguins and wolves.

Last year was a disaster for some of the Emperor Penguins, and they say all penguins could be extinct by the end of the century. Thanks to man.

Thousands of emperor penguin chicks across four colonies in Antarctica are believed to have died because of record-low sea ice levels that caused a “catastrophic breeding failure” in late 2022, according to new research.
Analysis of satellite images showed the break-up of usually stable sea ice and the disappearance of the colonies at a time when chicks had not yet grown their waterproof feathers.
Scientists have said emperor penguins face an uncertain future under global heating because they are so reliant on sea ice, which is projected to decline as the world’s oceans heat up.
The breeding failures in the Bellingshausen Sea were “without precedent”, the research said, as it was the first time multiple colonies across a large region had all failed in a single season.

So today, let’s post anything wild animal related, music, memes, gifs, and let’s enjoy these great animals while we have them.
