"On Granite Island off South Australia, a colony of little penguins is fighting
to survive. About two decades ago, the penguins numbered 1,600 adults – now
there are just 30.
It is important for scientists to monitor and study this little penguin colony,
to observe their behaviours and stop their numbers from declining.
In our latest research project, my colleagues and I captured footage of the
penguins over several breeding seasons, as part of a study into their parenting
behaviours. It provides a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse into the unseen
world of these vulnerable birds.
So let’s take a look at what Granite Island’s little penguins get up to when
humans aren’t watching."
