Newcastle researchers help at-risk penguin species
A team of Northumbria University researchers is helping to develop a vaccine for an infection that has been killing off rare penguins in New Zealand.
Numbers of yellow-eyed penguins (pictured below) are dwindling due to outbreaks of a diphtheria-like infection which is not treatable with antibiotics and is fatal to chicks.

The team, led by Dr Vartul Sangal, has identified a species of bacteria causing the infections and is hoping a vaccine can be developed to help protect the species from potential extinction.
Melanie Young, from the University of Otago in New Zealand, said: “Avian diphtheria has affected up to
93% of hoiho chicks in their northern range for more than 20 years, with the
disease being fatal if left untreated."
