Even penguins have joined the high tech world of the Internet! The world of the web now enables conservationists to log on to a website to receive messages from 17 rockhopper penguins dotted all over the South West Atlantic up to two-thousand miles into their annual winter migration foraging at sea. After several months at sea, they are now returning to the Falkland Islands to go ashore for the summer breeding season.
