I found this to be very interesting. . .

I just found this story to be kind of funny and somewhat cute. The first thing I remembered after reading this was someone telling me that there are no gay animals cause it's not part of nature and when I told them that I heard off gay animals from people they told me that they were liars. LOL, I only hope that the person who told me that had the chance to read this.


Gay Penguins Expelled from Zoo Colony for Stealing Eggs are Given Their Own to Look After Following Animal Rights Protest

"A pair of gay penguins thrown out of their zoo colony for repeatedly stealing eggs have been given some of their own to look after following a protest by animal rights groups.Last month the birds were segregated after they were caught placing stones at the feet of parents before waddling away with their eggs.But angry visitors to Polar Land in Harbin, northern China, complained it wasn't fair to stop the couple from becoming surrogate fathers and urged zoo bosses to give them a chance.In response, zookeepers gave the pair two eggs laid by an inexperienced first-time mother.'We decided to give them two eggs from another couple whose hatching ability had been poor and they've turned out to be the best parents in the whole zoo,' said one of the keepers.

'It's very encouraging and if this works out well we will try to arrange for them to become real parents themselves with artificial insemination.'Wildlife experts at the park explain that despite being gay the three-year-old male birds are still driven by an urge to be fathers.'One of the responsibilities of being a male adult is looking after the eggs. Despite the fact that they can't have eggs naturally, it does not take away their biological drive to be a parent,' said one.One campaigner who did not want to be named welcomed the move and said: 'It wasn't fair to stop them becoming parents and keep them apart from all the other birds just because of the way nature has made them.

'Last month zookeepers said the couple were removed from the group not because of discrimination, but so as not to disturb the colony during hatching time."
