Community data is valuable

Are your penguins going missing?

Can you help us build the picture of penguin whereabouts and survival in Taranaki?

We need a baseline to work from.

Any penguin sightings, historical information on their whereabouts, or photographs, can be shared by emailing ‘Taranaki Penguins’ or by using the online map at www.seasense.org.nz
