MODERATORS
Not as long as one might think. At least not for the actual penguin, that unfortunately was plunked to extinction for nice down bedding, and not the impostors from down south.
(Partially joking here. But the great auk was called penguin before antarctic penguins were first described, and although auks and modern penguins look similar in some regards, they aren't very closely related.)
Certain death indeed
No wonder it dies
Even if you stop the penguin it will just go back.
So there's nothing wrong with taking this dying penguin and raising it as a pet?
You're onto something
The wrong part is where it wonders off and breaks your heart.
or worse, it could introduce unfit behavioral factors into the gene pool
you inspire me!
Starfleet directive as well
As long as the penguins haven't discovered warp drive, that is.
