Those dirty penguins...

They're perverts

We all knew that penguins were psychos, but they're also sexually depraved creatures as well.

"What is happening there is not in any way analogous to necrophilia in the human context," Mr Russell said. "It is the males seeing the positioning that is causing them to have a sexual reaction.

"They are not distinguishing between live females who are awaiting congress in the colony, and dead penguins from the previous year which just happen to be in the same position."

It is not necrophilia like pervert human, please.

Let thee who has not plowed a dead penguin cast the first stone.

The sexual behaviour section was not included in the official paper, but the then keeper of zoology at the museum, Sidney Harmer, decided that 100 copies of the graphic account should be circulated to a select group of scientists.

Makes me wonder how many other scientific records that are being kept out of public eye. Extending human morality to other species is just..not so bright.

Edit: @Sphere, what excactly do you mean by plowing the penguin.

An indication of high intelligence and civilization on the penguins!

It's either instinct and cold temperature preserving corpses; or sheer desperation. Penguins are known to be a gay bunch.

I don't see the exact horror in the issue. Penguins or rather most animals do not have the same standards of ethics that we have.
I mean, Pigs eat in their own filth, and dogs will eat just about anything including their own excrement...

Penguins shouldn't be held to the same ethical standard as us, should they? [Also, I realize how ridiculous my wording is, but I'll leave it as is for now.]

Nah, they're just clueless horny bastards.
