"A baby penguin which had to be separated from its family after a greedy sibling continually ate all its food has found companionship - with this stuffed toy.
The penguin - called Pingu - began to lose weight and appeared weak after its bigger relative regularly helped himself to all the fish on offer. Concerned keepers were forced to remove Pingu from the enclosure, but at just three-weeks-old the penguin was in desperate need of company. Staff bought a £3.99 toy penguin from the zoo shop which acts as a surrogate sibling to the chuffed chick - who cuddles up to its new friend all day." ![]() ![]() holla @ cuteness via |

Even though it's "cute" I hope it doesn't have psychological effects on the little penguin.

I think Pingu would have been psychologically effected anyway. Starving, depression from loneliness, having a fake friend... they're all kinda bad.

i used to watch Pingu (the show) all the time.
but the pictures are so cute. imagine if they have to put the penguin on prozac later on its life. |
