Life Antarctic penguin numbers double previous estimates: scientists Almost six million Adelie penguins are living in East Antarctica, more than double the number previously thought, scientists said Wednesday in findings that have implications for conservation. Research by an Australian, French and Japanese team used aerial and ground surveys, tagging and resighting data and automated camera images over several breeding seasons, which allowed them to come up with the new figure. They focused on a 5,000 kilometre (3,100 mile) stretch…
