Sounds a great idea to me! Likewise Newquay Zoo has penguins which are pretty 
good fun to watch. I believe, from memory, that there is some sort of plaque 
at Paignton Zoo penguin area which mentions Linux - I can't recall exactly 
who it was adopted one of them, but I think it was a LUG - not DC though.
What sort of fee do they charge? I can ask about Newquay Zoo tomorrow if you 
are interested.
