rach 1 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Check this out http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/hampshire/4547722.stm A reward is being offered for the return of a Jackass penguin chick stolen from a zoo. Toga, who has the brown and white colouring of a juvenile, was taken from Amazon World between Newport and Sandown, Isle of Wight. The zoo offered £1,000, with £2,000 more coming from donations, the Times newspaper reported. The penguin's mother is said to be pining for him, and the animal is expected to perish soon. The animal needs its mother as it will not take food from humans. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 what don't you understand Rach? That someone took it or that they are offering a reward? Personally, I don't get why people do things like that to animals. Morons. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 That someone took the penguin like that, of course. (I completely get why people want to offer a reward to get the poor penguin back). Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 yeah, what would you do with a penguin anyway? It's not like you could take it out and walk it. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted December 22, 2005 Author Share Posted December 22, 2005 Not the point really, but yes I suppose so. It sounds like it would not survive long without its mummy anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

Dims 0 Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I am always suss on anyone who feels the need to name their son after themsleves (i.e Jr, the III, the IIII etc). There is usually something weird going on in the family dynamic wher it occurs, as Siren's story is a testament to. Link to post Share on other sites
