Can you have a penguin as a pet?
 

Is that legal?

Don't know.
But it would be cool to have. I read they can go months without food.

aren't most species of them protected?

i dont know. why would they ? there are shitloads of them in the arctic circle.

whatever you plan to do, bestiality is obscenity!

I guess you saw March Of The Penguins too huh..

Either way, why would you want to keep a non domesticated animal as a pet? just selfish if you ask me.

When asking legal questions on the internet, whatever you do, don't support your question by giving information about what country your legal question applies to, because it's not like there are different laws in different countries around the world.

that was an awesome documentary about the penguins.

I dont think so... doesnt it need cold weather to live .. or soemthing ...
why would you want a penguin... when you could easely have a fainting goat.. witch are wayyy kewler...

I don,t see why you'd want one ...

maybe if you live in alaska

i am sure it depends on the species of penguin, and the place you live in.

some penguins are protected species, some are not.

as for the climate, there are warm weather penguins, such as the ones that live on some of the islands around australia, and the galapogos. there are also the more familiar arctic penguins.

if you are really interested a good place to start asking questions might be your local zoo. they are usually pretty knowledgable about the particulars.

heres the link for the fainting goats now you tell me that a goat isnt kewler then a penguin.. even if a penguin does walk funny I'll give you that

there are penguins in South Africa, and I can't say that the weather's too cold here

plus you can always keep in the freezer during the summer

no way... I had no Idea there was penguin in south africa.. need proof.. non-photoshoped pic is good enough :)

how hard could that be - just stick him in the freezer

then what would be the fun in having it if its always in the freezer... you cant even laugh at the way it walks...

you can stick him in the freezer just for the night.

:upsidedow hahahaha.. I like you, your funny
