Precious information
Studying animals in their natural environments also provides more insight into environmental changes,
especially into those related to variations in the climate. Thanks to the electronic monitoring systems that
have been in place for 18 years with king penguins, it will be eventually possible to know, on the scale of
a population, how climate variations, as they determine where and how abundant their marine prey may
be, impact the reproductive success and survival of penguins.
