Massive iceberg floats toward island of South Georgia, puts wildlife at risk

In this graphic provided by the European Space Agency containing modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2020), processed by the Sentinel Hub, shows an iceberg floating towards the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia. The iceberg the size of the U.S. state of Delaware is raising fears it could indirectly endanger young wildlife. The British Antarctic Survey said Wednesday, Nov. 4, 2020 it is concerned the iceberg may run aground near the island and prevent land-based marine predators from reaching food supplies and returning to their offspring.
