Good Week for Penguin Entertainment

Happy Feet came out on top in the weekend box office receipts (still haven't seen it, but going to). National Geographic does a rundown on the facts and where Happy Feet takes some liberties with penguinal correctness. After I see the movie, expect my full rundown of penguin fact and fiction.

The book about a male-male penguin pair raising a chick at the Central Park Zoo, based on real-life events, caused another dust-up in a midwestern state.

A pair of penguins that survived the crash of their zoo transport truck last summer in eastern Texas have hatched a chick. As you may recall, the crash claimed four penguins, one from the accident and three roadkill.
