\nPinguinii africani care tr\u0103iesc pe coastele Africii de Sud au fost decima\u0163i \u00een mai pu\u0163in de 10 ani de foametea \u00een mas\u0103, potrivit unui nou studiu dedicat acestui pinguin african clasificat acum ca specie \u00een pericol critic de dispari\u0163ie, potrivit Le Figaro.<\/p>\n
\n\u00cen ultimii opt ani, popula\u0163iile de sardine din apele sud-africane, o surs\u0103 vital\u0103 de hran\u0103 pentru pinguini, au r\u0103mas constant sub 25% din abunden\u0163a lor maxim\u0103, explic\u0103 Richard Sherley, biolog \u015fi coautor al studiului. Aceast\u0103 sc\u0103dere a stocurilor de sardine este atribuit\u0103 efectului combinat al anumitor practici de pescuit \u015fi factorilor de mediu, cum ar fi schimb\u0103rile temperaturii apei \u015fi salinit\u0103\u0163ii.<\/p>\n
\n\u201eSe pare c\u0103 acest lucru a cauzat o penurie sever\u0103 de hran\u0103 pentru pinguinii africani, rezult\u00e2nd o pierdere estimat\u0103 la aproximativ 62.000 de indivizi reproduc\u0103tori\u201d, a continuat biologul.<\/p>\n
\nPopula\u0163ia global\u0103 a speciei a sc\u0103zut cu aproape 80% \u00een ultimii 30 de ani, potrivit oamenilor de \u015ftiin\u0163\u0103. \u00cen ritmul actual de sc\u0103dere a popula\u0163iei, pas\u0103rea ar putea disp\u0103rea din s\u0103lb\u0103ticie p\u00e2n\u0103 \u00een 2035.<\/p>\n
\nAutorit\u0103\u0163ile au impus o interdic\u0163ie de 10 ani asupra pescuitului comercial \u00een jurul a \u015fase colonii de pinguini, inclusiv cele de pe Insula Robben (unde fostul pre\u015fedinte sud-african Nelson Mandela a petrecut aproape 17 ani \u00een deten\u0163ie sub regimul de apartheid) \u015fi Insula Dassen, dou\u0103 situri observate \u00een studiu.<\/p>\n
\n\u00cen lume mai exist\u0103 mai pu\u0163in de 10.000 de perechi reproduc\u0103toare ale micului pinguin african alb-negru, iar specia se afl\u0103 pe Lista Ro\u015fie a Speciilor Pe cale de Extinc\u0163ie Critic\u0103 a Uniunii Interna\u0163ionale pentru Conservarea Naturii (IUCN) din 2024.<\/p>\n
\nPinguinii africani sunt o atrac\u0163ie turistic\u0103, iar mii de oameni viziteaz\u0103 coloniile \u00een fiecare an. \u00cens\u0103 presiunea turismului are \u015fi impacturi negative, deranj\u00e2nd p\u0103s\u0103rile \u015fi provoc\u00e2nd un stres sporit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
