Tokyo penguin’s Madagascar-like bid for freedom

“Of course it can’t fly, but sometimes wildlife have an ‘explosive’ power
when frightened by something. Maybe it ran up the rock after being surprised,”
he said.

In the 2005 computer animated film Madagascar, penguins are among a group of
animals that mount an escape as they are being transported.

Zoo officials were Monday scouring the area where the Tokyo penguin was last
spotted in the hope of recapturing it.

“It’s a bit of a struggle to catch it when it is swimming, because it
swims at a tremendous speed,” Mr Sugino said. “We are hoping to
catch it when it climbs up on land to sleep.”
