Penguins don't actually wear trainers, thats just a myth.

[cookiepuss]

they are a total jackass!


seriously though, it is sad. I blame Paris Hilton and her kinkajou loving ass. I don't understand why the average person thinks they are qualified to care for a wild animal. :mad:

Whoever did this is probably just wants it's pelt.

[cookiepuss]

^I don't know about that. it's just a baby and probably all small, fluffy and downey, kinda hard to make a coat or a hat from that...a pillow maybe..but who would go to all that trouble for a pillow?

no some moron wants to put it on a leash and keep it as a pet.

Why don't people stop and logically think about what they are doing?


'So, I'm taking this penguin away from it's environment where it has a better chance of survival, just so I can have a penguin in my house. I won't feed it properly because I don't know shit about this thing, I just think it looks cool.'

:rolleyes:

Purloined penguin likely to die of malnutrition
A baby penguin believed to have been snatched from a British zoo as a quirky holiday gift is unlikely to survive until Christmas Day, his keeper warned Tuesday.
Toga, a 3-month-old jackass penguin, was stolen Saturday from Amazon World on the Isle of Wight in southern England.
Zoo manager Kath Bright said the bird, who was taken from a compound where he lived with his parents and four other penguins, probably would die of malnutrition if not returned right away.
``Toga is very, very vulnerable. The penguin is still being fed by his parents, and we don't believe it could survive more than five days,'' she told the Associated Press.
``The bird has already been missing for around three days and is likely to be severely dehydrated. If he isn't returned before Thursday, he is likely to become so ill that even intensive-care treatment won't save him



This was on www.mercurynew.com or something. Damn. :(

I know someone that works at an orphanage and one of the kids stole a penguin from the zoo. It was in the paper and all I could think of was "how the fuck did a small child nick a hefty penguin?"

Anyway, he was found hours later splashing about in the bath, a little distressed but fine. I hope this one is found, I saw a clip on telly of its fretful mother. Poor, poor animal.

You'd be a shitty christmas present though.
