Acerca de
El petrel de Markham es un pequeño petrel de tormenta completamente negro que anida en el desierto de Atacama de Chile y Perú. Busca alimento en las aguas de la corriente de Humboldt. Los nidos en el desierto costero son únicos entre los petreles de tormenta del Pacífico oriental. La contaminación lumínica atrae a los polluelos, desviándolos del camino hacia el mar. Se clasifica como especie cercana a la amenaza.
