I can't wait until they let the penguin try it out. I wonder how well it will work. I would love an update on this.

He is already improving. If you look at picture #2, you will see how terrible he used to look (look at his tail). Picture #3 and #4 show him looking much better (look at the tail, again). Now they are trying to remove his wet suit for short times until he doesn't need it anymore. Peguins live up to 20 years old. This old guy is 25 now.

That is amazing, at least they gave a chance for this 25 years old penguin to survive than suffering in the cold with less feathers.
