The royal couple has made their first déplacer toward parenthood today: They adopted a baby penguin!
The little manchot, pingouin named Acorn was donné to Prince William and Kate Middleton as a wedding gift from the Chester Zoo Friday, reports Us magazine. They will be the official parents of the animal, but they won't be making a nest for him at their Anglesey home. Instead, the furry creature will stay at the England zoo with his 49 other Humbolt manchot, pingouin friends.
"Hopefully the happy couple will come and see little Acorn playing in his pool very soon," a zoo spokesman a dit Friday.
The decision to gift the new duke and duchess the manchot, pingouin came after Acorn received 20 percent of the votes conducted on the zoo's social networking sites. He beat out 400 other species of manchot, pingouin for the win! We only wonder if little Acorn is ticklish...
