A groundbreaking study by an international team of researchers from South Africa and the UK has revealed the incredible potential of artificial nests in boosting the breeding success of endangered African penguins. Led by experts at Nelson Mandela University, the 12-year study across South Africa demonstrated that artificial nests outperformed natural ones, increasing breeding output by a remarkable 16.5%. This exciting discovery offers hope for the conservation of these beloved creatures.
