Balding penguin's wetsuit lets him swim again

I thought this was cute and pretty neat. Thought I'd share for the fun of it.

lol! I'm curious what the vets think - maybe does his shivering keep him from growing his feathers properly? and do they have Rogaine for Penguins?

ROFL, LMBO - This was a great story tho. Thanks!
