      As much as I would love to, I have never touched a baby penguin!

      I have got pretty close to them though. If you stand still and silent on the edge of a penguin colony, they all get really curious and come and have a look at you. I don’t think baby penguins can see very well as once, one walked into my foot. I would love to have a pet baby penguin but the only thing they can eat is fish that has already been partly digested by their parents and then thrown up again!
