(Sullindya Deswi Atiza_6411421206_Public Health_1E) Today I want to tell you about some news that I read before. The first one is "Baby elephant dies after losing half its trunk in poacher's trap".

Adélie penguins are commonly found on the coasts of Antarctica. Being excellent swimmers, the species can travel up to 745 miles away from home. The tuxedo-clad birds are known to breed on the rocky, ice-free ground. Researchers said the mass die-off occurred because unusually large amounts of sea ice forced penguin parents to travel farther in search of food for their young.
