This is adorable. Also went to their webite and saw all they did. Had no idea that knitted jumpers could be used for oil damaged birds. Hurrah to them!

I actually found conflicting info on whether or not the sweaters were used, but it's a good thought. I know at the California Academy of Sciences, one of the penguins has a wetsuit that helped him get over a severe case of molting (and not growing new feathers).
