First test-tube baby penguin says hello to the world

To science, she’s simply known as “184.” But on the empirical cuteness scale, the world’s first test-tube penguin scores a “100.”

Cute??? I think not. These are dangerous, vicious animals. No one wants to to mention it due to the pro-penguin lobby, but in addition to being the bird-equivalent to a pit bull, they are also venomous, killing hundreds of people every year at zoos and in their native habitat in West Virginia. I for one was badly abused by one in the old FRN chatroom, and have never fully recovered.

Don't they fly in West Virginia, carrying away young livestock and children?
