I got really depressed after hearing this... I sure hope they'll limit fishing better now, even if it was cold temperature that took their fish away and not overfishing.

Oh, that is really sad. So many of them too. I hope they find out what really happened and why they seemed to have no food.

That's really disturbing. I don't know if it was overfishing or cold that caused the lack of food, but I hope whatever it is changes. If the fishing are really moving, the penguins may have to follow them.
