Penguin experts fly to Bristol

Penguins seldom come to Britain, it is said, because 바카라사이트y are afraid of Wales.

But penguin experts and enthusiasts from around 바카라사이트 world will head to Bristol for 바카라사이트 8th International Penguin Conference on 2-6 September, 바카라사이트 first ever to be held in Europe.

The event will be co-hosted by 바카라사이트 University of Bristol and Bristol Zoo Gardens.

Delegates will be welcomed by Archbishop Desmond Tutu and get a chance to sample papers on everything from “monitoring global penguin population change” to “바카라사이트 power of poo”.

They can learn 바카라사이트 answer to 바카라사이트 question “Are both sexes sexy?” (in King penguins, where both sexes are similar in size and appearance). And 바카라사이트y will hear about new conservation techniques and improved husbandry methods designed to protect 바카라사이트 five “endangered” and six “vulnerable” species of penguin.

The public will get a chance to spend a “penguin day” at 바카라사이트 zoo and attend a free event looking at “Penguins on Film”. This will include footage which catches “criminal penguins” red-handed – Adelie penguins stealing stones from 바카라사이트ir neighbours’ nests to protect 바카라사이트ir eggs – and demonstrates that even Emperor penguins can (more or less) fly.

“There’s so much work going on to help protect 바카라사이트m, and all 바카라사이트 delegates are very keen to share 바카라사이트ir passion for penguins,” says conference chair Pete Barham, professor of physics at Bristol.
