Imagine waking up fresh after this medium-level bin fire of a year, with no knowledge whatsoever of everything that went down.
That’s the privilege of this offensively cute baby penguin, a newborn addition to the Cincinnati Zoo.

What can hundreds of dead penguins teach us about climate change?
A warmer world might be a penguin-less world.
New research has connected hundreds of mummified penguin carcasses to two disastrous weather events thought to be influenced by climate change.
The study, which was published in the Journal of Geophysical Research – Biogeosciences, warns that these events might foreshadow what’s to come if the Earth continues to get hotter.
A team of Chinese and Australian researchers found the mummified Adélie penguins under a remarkably thick layer of sediment in Long Peninsula, East Antarctica, which usually has a dry climate. Read more…

Jerks can sometimes be good — at least when they’re penguins.
Jill Twiss shared a video of a penguin who has a proclivity for untying shoelaces on Twitter, and it is the soul healing balm I’ve been searching for.
“I know most things are bad but today I met this asshole penguin who loved untying shoelaces and I’m feeling pretty great,” tweeted Twiss on Thursday.

Penguin jumps into man’s boat for a quick hi-bye
Hello yes, I would like to apply to be a member of the Australian Antarctic Division team. Oh and also, I’m a penguin.
Footage released on Wednesday by the Australian Antarctic Division shows a penguin quickly dropping in on communications specialist Matthew McKay, who was travelling through sea ice at the time.

How about zero points for effort?
A zoo in southern China has been heavily criticised after visitors found that its penguin exhibit was filled only with inflatable toys.
Worse, it only had a handful of other enclosures, housing pretty commonly-found livestock such as roosters and geese.
The Guishan zoo, which only recently opened in China’s Yulin city, had advertised itself as place where visitors could see rare animals and learn more about wildlife.
