Abstract:
Little Penguins from Penguin and Garden islands in Perth, Western Australia, are tracked to determine the areas in which they travel and feed throughout the breeding season. Once the areas they regularly use are determined, the threats the penguins are exposed to, and their likelihood of occurrence, can be elucidated. This forms part of a broader project to determine the population viability analysis of the Little Penguins in the Perth metropolitan region.

摘要：
本研究对西澳大利亚州珀斯市企鹅岛与花园岛的小企鹅（Little Penguin）进行跟踪，以明确其在繁殖季的活动与觅食区域。在确定其常规活动区域后，可进一步阐明该种群面临的各类威胁及其发生概率。本研究为珀斯都会区小企鹅种群生存力分析整体项目的组成部分。
