This aquarium is shaming its naughty penguins and it’s adorable

CUTE!

This is beyond cute.

An aquariam in New Zealand has decided to give a monthly update on how their penguins are behaving. They name and shame the bold penguin and praise the good one and it’s all on a public board.

June’s two are Timmy and Betty.

Timmy is the naughtiest because he apparently stole fish and pushed another penguin over, while Betty waited patiently for fish and was a good swimmer.

The National Aquariam of New Zealand‘s picture has gone viral. There was such a huge response that they have followed up with more information on Timmy’s mischief and how he came to be part of the aquariam family.

They said:

“Lets talk about Timmy, our naughty penguin of the month. We love Timmy, however he’s a regular offender of stealing fish and pushing other penguins out the way while flicking up sand in the process.

Timmy was found injured on a beach in Hawke’s Bay unable to walk. But with treatment and visits from his own chiropractor he is able to walk again, although a bit wobbly at times.”

Just look at this cheeky face.
