BACK TO THE BLUE
To celebrate African Penguin Awareness Day, the Southern African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds (Sanccob), based in Table View, released 11 criticallyendangered African penguins back into the ocean. After lengthy care, rehabilitation and love these remarkable seabirds were finally where they belonged. One penguin was at Sanccob for more than 500 days, overcoming real odds before returning. “We watched them waddle across the sand and dive into the surf,” Sanccob stated, “and we were reminded why this work matters. It wasn’t just goodbye; it’s a victory for conservation, a symbol of resilience, a reminder of a shared responsibility to protect SA’s iconic seabirds.”
