Staff began to spray the birds with the orange,green and blue dye a different colour for each rubbish dump but the dye can wash of in a few weeks

Penguin swims from NZ to Australia

A penguin has swam from New Zealand to Australia! It took him eight weeks to swim 2,500 km. Penguins can’t fly, but they are  the fastest swimmers on the planet. Sad enough, when he got to Australia he was struggling on the rocks in the shallow and then he was found and got taken to a zoo and then they put him back into the wild so he can make his way back to New Zealand.
