re: #40 DEZes
Harrison Edell, a curator of birds at the zoo, had a more pragmatic explanation, noting that Linda’s recently-deceased partner was a leader of sorts among the small zoo penguin community, commanding not one but two nests.
“For penguins, real estate means a lot,” Edell told the Los Angeles Times, so “as far as penguins go, she was a pretty attractive prospect.”
It sort of makes sense, what with Linda being quite the wealthy widow. It is a story as old as time.
