professional snipers protect penguins

Professional snipers have been brought in to guard a vulnerable
colony of penguins in Australia. The deployment follows the
mysterious deaths of nine of the furry, flightless birds over
the last two weeks.

The mutilated bodies of the animals, known as fairy penguins,
were found in a national park near Sydney harbour.

The main suspects are dogs and foxes. At 40cm tall, the
world's smallest penguin species is clearly no match for
such aggressive enemies.To even up the fight, two snipers
have been deployed as bodyguards.

They have started night patrols and have instructions to
" do what it takes " to protect these tiny creatures.
