CNN - Satellite imaging has revealed that there are nearly 20% more emperor penguin colonies in Antarctica than previously thought.
However, while the discovery has been welcomed, the previously undiscovered animals will act as "canaries in the coalmine" when it comes to studying the impact of global warming, experts have said.
Scientists discovered 11 new colonies, meaning there are now 61 colonies across the continent overall.
The study, which used satellite mapping technology, will "provide an important benchmark for monitoring the impact of environmental change on the population of this iconic bird," researchers said.
