Gentoo penguins cope with climate change heat waves by breeding earlier
Over the past few decades, heat waves have become more common in several parts of the world as our planet warms. That's a huge problem for many animals, as it can lead to habitat loss and push their bodies to lethal thresholds. However, one penguin species appears to be adapting to these extreme con...
