Three penguins have been killed on a single stretch of the Coast Road in just a month, bringing the total penguin road deaths to over 100 in five years.
West Coast Blue Penguin Trust supporter and Fox River resident Fiona McDonald picked up the latest dead bird at the weekend.
Three main blackspots on the Coast Road have now claimed the lives of at least 100 of the rare penguins in five years.
Ms McDonald said she had not counted any penguin tracks on Pahautane beach, near Fox River, this year.
"The numbers tell the story, I cannot believe the decline on Pahautane beach over the past few years.''
