Penguins

December 15, 2006

When I spoke to my Mom earlier in the day she mentioned that a friend who worked in a school where a young autistic boy took a penguin from the new aquarium in Atlanta while on a fieldtrip. Apparently, he was able to jump into the tank and take a penguin and then stash it in his backpack. He got on the school bus wet but apparently no one said anything. When he arrived home, his mother opened up his backpack and found the penguin alive and looking back at her. She then took the penguin and put it in the car and called the aquarium and said she was on the way and would be bringing the penguin with her. Apparently, this did not make the news which I thought was somewhat surprising… It did make me wonder how often these sorts of things happen at the zoo or aquariums around the world. It is rather funny and disturbing that no one thought about why a little boy was wet after visiting the aquarium…
