I heard on The World Today at lunch time on ABC radio today about the deathof juvenile Little Penguins on the Victorian coast. The biggest number(about 1500) was near Discovery Bay over towards South Australia. Theexpert who was interviewed said that this was a common occurrence forjuvenile Little Penguins, although there may have been more deaths thisyear as the breeding season was slightly later leading to fewer small fishbeing available.


Anyone have any more details?
