Surprising news from Antarctica today, as researchers there have discovered that penguins are amateur alchemists!
That's right, Tom. A new study shows that when penguins inhale large amounts of greenhouse gases, small amounts of gold show up in their excretions!
This remarkable quality means that the fuzzy little guys could be a great help in cleaning up the environment, while making some money for their owners on the side.
Everybody already loved penguins because they're so cute...
...but with the discovery that they're also monetarily and ecologically valuable, expect their popularity as household pets to increase significantly.
