robinwest sent me a link to these Yahoo articles about penguins who were given shoes to protect their little sore feet! Click here and here, and there is also a penguin slide show here if you click on the most e-mailed page TV icon for more penguin photos!
A penguin called Elvis wears a new pair of blue shoes at the Antarctic Centre's Penguin Encounter display in Christchurch, November 7, 2006. Elvis and 16 other penguins who arrived at the International Antarctic Centre in September have been given specially designed shoes after several penguins developed sore feet in their new home, according to Antarctic Centre director Richard Benton.

He's called Elvis because he has BLUE SUEDE SHOES!
