Meet the charismatic new residents splashing into the Houston Zoo Penguins are coming to the Houston Zoo.
Rendering courtesy of Houston Zoo Charismatic, loyal, and well-dressed (sorry), penguins are among some of the most beloved animals on the globe. Now, locals will get a chance to meet these flightless birds up close. The Houston Zoo announced that Humboldt penguins will be a part of its newest
Galápagos Islands exhibit, opening in autumn 2022. The exhibit also will boast sea lions, giant tortoises, sharks, and more. Galápagos penguins are threatened by overfishing, ocean pollution, and climate change and are highly protected by the Ecuadorian government. It is the most threatened penguin species in the world, the zoo notes, with an estimated population of less than 2,000 individuals.
The suitable habitat of the threatened sangai or brow-antlered deer (
Rucervus eldii eldii) found only in Manipur’s Keibul Lamjao National Park is likely to narrow down and become limited by 2,050-2,070 due to climate change, according to new research.
The study published in the journal
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment has revealed that the suitable distribution areas for the sangai deer will be narrower and will be restricted to the central core zone of the protected area.
Unlike other national parks in India, Keibul Lamjao National Park is a 40 sq km patch comprising mainly of floating biomass (locally called phumdi) and water body, in the southern rim of the saucer-shaped Loktak Lake, a Ramsar wetland of international importance and the largest freshwater lake in northeast India. As per the 2016 census, the park is home to 260 sangai.
