I would assume this is due to a rise in temperature, over the freezing point. The baby penguins do not yet have their water-repelling feathers, become soaked, and freeze to death as the temperature drops. Hopefully, people will be more sympathetic to the plight of the penguins than they were over the polar bears or the honeybee...
