South Georgia

The fact that this island seen the recovery of many endangered species is excellent news that shows in some cases environment protection is working. However it is also disturbing that the factor that allowed for these species to recover in the first place, the krill, is slowing decreasing. This could result in the destruction of this place should such a vital source of food be lost. I also find it impressive that such radically different climates can exist on the same island

  1. I'd like to see some more specific details from the article. What are some species that have recovered? Why is krill population declining?
