Loading player...
The African penguin population is decreasing at 7.9% a year and, at that rate, they could be extinct by 2035, which makes SANCCOB’s conservation efforts to reverse the decline of numbers crucial.

We caught up with Nicky Stander to find out how we can get involved to protect our African penguins.
