Lifebelt In sunny Brazil, a perplexing inrush of penguins

Quote:
...'I have never seen anything like this'
This year is different. Like some maritime dust-bowl migration, more than 1,000 of these penguins have floated ashore in Brazil, nearly as far north as the equator. By the time their webbed feet touch sand, many are gaunt and exhausted, often having lost three-quarters of their body weight. Even more have died.

"This year is completely anomalous," said Lauro Barcellos, 51, an oceanographer who founded a rehabilitation center for penguins in southern Brazil. ". . . I've worked in this field for 35 years, and I have never seen anything like this."...

WiseOne's Comments, hmmm, there is just some really weird stuff going on these days! Maybe these birds just wanted a vacation on a sunny beach and got tired of the snow? LMAO.

Persuasion? Conservative Party
Or maybe, we as people have only started recording and tracking this over the last hundred years or so. Do you suppose that maybe over the last several millenia, where humans haven't been recording anything, that this may have been a fairly common occurence? I don't buy into man-made global warming B.S. when I know for a fact that 97% of greenhouse gases are from the ocean (naturally), volcano's (naturally), and forest fires (naturally) and when natural activity goes up, as well as solar flares which we aren't creating, go up, things get warmer, DUHHHHHH..... If evolution was so certain, I guess the penguins should be turning into geese as we speak.
