Kulapavana Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Source: ananova Published: March 17, 2005 Penguins can stay gay A German zoo has scrapped plans to break up homosexual penguin couples following protests from gay rights groups. Two of Bremerhaven Zoo's gay humboldt penguins /Europics The Bremerhaven Zoo had earlier flown in four female Humboldt penguins in an attempt to encourage three couples discovered to be all male to reproduce. The zoo originally defended the experiment, claiming that the birds were an endangered species, but following protests from gay rights groups, director Heike Kueck has said that the zoo is abandoning the plan. She said: "Everyone can live here as they please." Kueck said that it was neither her intention nor possible to separate the gay couples by force and interest them in their new female companions. She added that the penguins had shown little interest in their new female companions but said that the programme could have been started too late in the year. Gay groups had earlier protested against "the organised and forced harassment through female seductresses" in an open letter to Bremerhaven's Mayor Joerg Schulz.
