Just got this email from a friend, going to c&p it for your enjoyment: :funn:

ok this is the funniest thing I have ever heard. My moms friends grandson is Cole's age, autistic but a high functioning savant, he goes the aquarium on a school trip comes home and is anxious about washing his hands, his mom knows this is one of his "things" so she lets him go up to the bathroom and waits to hear the story of the field trip, she hears the water continuously running in the tub so goes in and there is a baby penguin in the TUB! Apparently he got into an exhibit snatched it and stuffed it in his backpack! she calls the aquarium and they think she means a stuffed animal from the gift shop, she's like um NO there is a )#*$)#*$ baby penguin in my tub. A team fully dressed in hazmats come out to get the penguin lol
can you even imagine!!!

I can't believe that!! Too Funny! Can you punish a kid for doing that?

Here's the last I heard:

he didn't get in trouble, the hazmat team came out retrieved the pilfered penguin and returned it. Everyone is still baffled at how the boy got into the exhibit and swiped the penguin in the first place. I guess penguins are quite noisey and the thing didn't make a peep in the backpack either!

How funny! Those cute little penguins are irrisistable! I'm sure the aquarium folks are reassessing their "penguin security"!
 
I probably would have done the same thing if I thought I could have gotten away with it. They are so cute!!!!!
 
I wonder if that boy saw the movie this past summer about the penguins? I haven't seen it but from all the trailers, I can see a little boy wanting to bring home his very own penguin! The movie looks adorable.

I'm sure the zoo will figure out from its security cameras how exactly the penguin was snatched. He's one lucky little boy--he could have drowned, if you think about it.
