Slideshow: Penguins Go Through Airport Security
-
Two traveling penguins from Seaworld in San Antonio went through regular airport screening at Denver International Airport recently. Here, Pat and Penny are removed from their carry-on case so they can walk through the metal detector. (Pat is the good looking one) -
A handler walks ahead of the two birds to show them the way. They look a little confused about why they have to do this. -
The first penguin seems to be wondering why this is necessary. "It's not like I planned to hijack the plane to Antarctica." -
This penguin needs a little coaxing to cross the line. "Gee, the things I do for a fish!" -
