Although our Guins are happy, I'm afraid the Northern Rockhopper penguins are not quite so cheerful.
Between 1955 and 2006 there has been an awful loss of these cute, charismatic birds. In fact, 2 million pairs were lost from Tristan da Cunha and Gough in the South Atlantic Ocean.
And now, since 2012, they are still sliding towards the edge of extinction. It is so sad to think that we are losing 100 Rockhoppers every day.
Their decline could be due to climate change, or maybe over-fishing for squid and octopus by humans. Rockhoppers not only feed on krill but are also partial to a bit of squid.
Let's hope something can be done to save these wonderful crested penguins so that they can be as happy as our Guins once again!
