More than 100 dead Magellan penguins, coated in oil, have been washed up on the southern coast of Argentina.

Some 200 other penguins survived and are being treated and cleaned before being released.

Authorities have implemented an emergency plan with environmental workers patrolling the coastline on the lookout for more penguins.

Meanwhile an investigation has been launched to establish where the oil came from.

The survivors have been taken to a cleaning centre in the nearby town of Rio Gallegos.
