This is not the first incident of this nature; there have been several dog attacks on penguins in Simon\u2019s Town which are completely unnecessary and avoidable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe incident has shocked and saddened all those who work tirelessly to conserve this endangered seabird that is currently declining at an alarming rate with populations the lowest on record.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ |&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news24.com\/news24\/community-newspaper\/peoples-post\/19-endangered-penguins-killed-in-simons-town-as-off-leash-dogs-wreak-devastation-on-colony-20221031\">19 endangered penguins killed in Simon\u2019s Town as off-leash dogs wreak devastation on colony<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a statement, SANCCOB further said that the penguins sustained extensive wounds to the neck, abdomen and groin areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe City of Cape Town\u2019s Coastal Management Branch and SANCCOB\u2019s Penguin &amp; Seabird Rangers transported the penguin carcasses to SANCCOB as part of an incident investigation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSANCCOB\u2019s clinical veterinarian describes severe bite marks and puncture wounds to the lower parts of the penguins\u2019 bodies, whilst several penguins suffered extensive wounds to the neck, abdomen, and groin areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAmong the carcasses discovered, two African penguin chicks were also killed, which confirms that predation took place on land as these chicks would have not yet been seaworthy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-embed24=\"Oovvuu2\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_a19c6669\">\n<div><script type=\"text\/javascript\">!function(e,t,r){let n;if(e.getElementById(r))return;const a=e.getElementsByTagName(\"script\")[0];n=e.createElement(\"script\"),n.id=r,n.defer=!0,n.src=\"https:\/\/playback.oovvuu.media\/player\/v1.js\",a.parentNode.insertBefore(n,a)}(document,0,\"oovvuu-player-sdk\");<\/script><p><\/p>\n<div data-oovvuu-embed=\"a19c6669-7887-43b4-9c35-d37f8294372c\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"4\" layout=\"responsive\" resizable=\"\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin\" src=\"https:\/\/playback.oovvuu.media\/frame\/a19c6669-7887-43b4-9c35-d37f8294372c\" width=\"5\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>SANCCOB is now calling on the City of Cape Town and the South African National Parks (SANParks) to urgently review dog walking areas in Simon\u2019s Town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMeasures need to be implemented to prevent further dog attacks; we plead with the City of Cape Town and SANParks to urgently review areas in Simon\u2019s Town and surrounds where dogs are currently walked and increase enforcement of non-compliance offenders.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week, the Cape of Good Hope SPCA confiscated the dogs from their owners after an eyewitness report of the incident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cape of Good Hope SPCA chief inspector Jaco Pieterse said they are now awaiting the outcome of the case that has been handed over to authorities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe SPCA is in possession of an affidavit from an eyewitness who witnessed the incident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was reported that two husky-type dogs were seen at Seaforth beach attacking various penguins.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seaforth beach is a prominent nesting site for around 150 endangered African penguins and is on the border of Boulders beach \u2013 the world-famous African penguin breeding colony. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe dogs were impounded in terms of the Animal Keeping By-law by the City of Cape Town, assisted by Cape of Good Hope SPCA Inspectors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe SPCA will ensure that justice is served for these penguins, who suffered a traumatic death because of irresponsible dog owners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t believe that the dogs are to blame, but will hold their irresponsible owners accountable,\u201d said Pieterse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLaw Enforcement has opened a docket against the owners at Simon\u2019s Town Police Station. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe matter is now in the hands of law enforcement.
