The Penguin isn't just a Batman character

An interesting but somewhat quiet topic is how our actions are having an effect on the animal population. Although many creatures are being affected around the world with rising temperatures, the most apparent affect is on the colder regions of our earth where the ice and snow are melting as a result of global warming.

The penguin colonies are a species which migrate long distances in order to breed. Researchers are now using a rather lighthearted method to keep track of penguins in Antarctica. They're following the animals poop from space.
