GAY PENGUINS PINCH EGGS
TWO GAY BIRDS DRIVEN BY THEIR FATHERLY INSTINCTS HAVE BEEN CAUGHT 'HATCHING' A DEVIOUS PLOT

GAY PENGUINS at a zoo in China have been stealing eggs in a bid to become surrogate dads.
Keepers have been forced to segregate the couple after catching them trying to trick straight birds into parting with their offspring.

The cunning pair would place round stones at their feet before running off with an egg, as reported by the austriantimes.at.

Experts at the Polarland Park in Harbin, north east China, the three-year-old male birds are driven by an urge to be dads, despite their sexuality.

A keeper explained: "One of the responsibilities of being a male adult is looking after the eggs. Despite this being a biological impossibility for this couple, the natural desire is still there."

He denied discriminating against the homosexual penguins.

"It's not discrimination. We have to fence them separately, otherwise the whole group will be disturbed during hatching time."
