Some 150,000 penguins died after a massive iceberg grounded near
their colony in Antarctica, forcing them to make a lengthy trek to find
food, scientists say in a newly-published study.
The B09B
iceberg, measuring some 100 square kilometres, grounded in Commonwealth
Bay in East Antarctica in December 2010, the researchers from Australia
and New Zealand wrote in the Antarctic Science journal.
