Other animal news to be concerned about is that roughly 600 Magellanic penguins washed up on the shore of Uruguay this past week. In addition, there were a few dolphins and albatrosses. While it is not uncommon for some penguins to die during this time of year as they make their way up to Rio for some good feeding grounds, the quantity of deaths has the Biodiversity Conservation Society in Maldonado, Uruguay doing further analyses to determine the cause, as oil was ruled out.
Makes me glad I can count on food in the dish beside the refrigerator. While not the best, I don't have to put forth so much effort to get it refilled.
