Charlotte Penguin Takes Swimming Lessons
Categories: Animals | Positive | Water
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/charlotte-penguin-takes-swimming-lessons.htmlCharlotte, the king penguin, is giving the zoo workers a blast because he's scared of the water! The bird is so reluctant to climb into the pool with its fellows that it tries to FLY!
Hydrophobic Charlotte was raised by zookeeper Alistair Keane in the English county of Gloucestershire. “Unfortunately, Charlotte doesn't realize she's a penguin, and penguins spend a lot of time in the water. She’s even afraid to get her feathers wet,” complains Alistair.
When it became clear that the bird itself would not climb into the pool, Alistair decided that he would have to set an example for Charlotte: he put on a mask with a snorkel and plunged into the water himself. It is hoped that little by little the penguin will follow the example of the zookeeper and get used to the water.
