TL;DR: Protection of breeding habitat, linked to the designation of appropriately scaled marine reserves, including in the High Seas, will be critical for the future conservation of penguins and other ecosystem-based management methods must be developed to maintain marine biodiversity and ensure that ecosystem functioning is maintained across a variety of scales.

TL;DR: A review of threats faced by the world's 18 species of penguins is presented in this paper, where the authors discuss alterations to their environment at both breeding sites on land and at sea where they forage.

TL;DR: The results show that chronic petroleum pollution is a problem for wildlife from Southern Brazil through Northern Argentina, and regulations and enforcement are failing to protect living resources.

TL;DR: Of the penguins with petroleum, 13% arrived in the southern half of Brazil, showing that petroleum pollution remains a problem along the SW Atlantic coast, and Penguins were dehydration, anemic, hypothermic, and emaciated.

TL;DR: Results were similar to those obtained for poultry with antimicrobials promoting growth and chick nutrient assimilation rates, and Gram-positive bacilli in the diphtheroid genus Corynebacterium are likely candidates to cause decreased growth rates in magellanic penguin chicks.
