Being Green

It’s National African Penguin Awareness Day on Saturday 8 October, and in this week’s edition of Being Green, Glynis Crook speaks to Dr Alistair McInnes, Seabird Conservation Programme Manager at BirdLife South Africa, about the Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment’s decision to declare some areas around the major penguin colonies as temporarily closed to commercial fishing, and the Avian Flu outbreak at the Boulders Beach penguin colony.
