I want a penguin, BAD!! They vibrate when you pet them too. This will really get a guy some women. Take it for a walk in the park, and watch the women flock. This pet may even be better then a Monkey. They work great at pool parties too I bet.

I vibrate when you pet me too....
but you can't buy me on the internet.
I was actually wondering about this one, too... something was nagging at me thinking that I had already seen it posted on the weblog, but was too lazy to search for it.
I don't think it is real. For proof, look at the Q&A section on the website. It suggests that you should give your penguin laser eye surgery. The truth is that you are not allowed to have an endangered species as a pet in the United States unless you are a licensed biologist, pathologist, zoologist, etc. This is definitely a hoax.

I don't think penguins are endangered. There are plenty of them. Maybe a certain kind or breed is possibly. But I don't think penguins in general are.
I don't know if this is a hoax or not. Does anyone know of anyone that has baught a penguin from them? If not, we have no way of knowing its a hoax. They could be making lots of money before our eyes. I guess its natural to think its a hoax because penguins are a rare pet. I'm thinking about ordering one.
I saw a website that said it was a hoax. But I believe it

Some species are endangered, however there are a couple that arent. Eudyptula minor (Fairy Penguins) are listed LC on the endangered list (Lease Concerned) as there are over a million in the world. They reside in Australia so they like warmer temperatures. To purchase one you will need an import permit, you'll need a personal pet permit. A permit can be had at http://www.fws.gov/ (US fish and wildlife service) then you have to find a place to buy one. do a search in Australia or New Zealand and you should be able to find a place to get one. I will warn you, A permit is needed, if you import one without a permit it is a felony to import such an animal. Thats my disclaimer good luck
I know its a hoax, but I also know a website that actually does sell penguins. I got one from there, but my uncle made me give it to a zoo.
the website is http://www.freewebs.com/mynotebook-penguins-a-usa/
good luck
