World’s Smallest Penguins and a Small Town Tune into Nature with Karthic
-
- Science
In the evenings in small town of Ōamaru, hundreds of people wait eagerly, to see the stars of the night… the World’s Smallest Penguins - the Little Blue Penguins.
The birds were once called ‘trespassers’ by some locals, but today they are icons of the town.
Philippa Agnew has been working on research and conservation of the Little Blues for over 17 years, and her team is working to learn about the penguins in the growing colony and keep an eye on how the changing climate might impact these birds.
Featuring -
Dr. Philippa Agnew, Science & Environmental Manager, Ōamaru Blue Penguin Colony
Beth, Tia & Tour Guides at the OPBC
Dawn Brown, Presence on the Harbour Gift Shop
Producer, Sound Recordist, Sound Editor & Presenter -
