Biome, Weather & social structure

This specie could have definitely been saved if scientist new about the troubles that these penguins were going through. Scientist could have stopped humans from hunting these penguins down and could have later set up a male and female to mate and make the population increase again.

The Chatham Island Penguin is a crested eudyptes bird. It is white and black with yellow feathers for eyebrows. They tend to make a variety of noises such as hissing, crying, and trumpeting. They eat small fish like piper fish and krill by using their sharp long beak which makes them secondary consumers. These penguins come together at the end of August or early September to mate.
