Wetsuit Waddle Photos

Aquatic biologist Pam Schaller displays a wardrobe of wetsuits for Pierre the Penguin at the Academy of Sciences in San Francisco, on April 17, 2008. She conducted numerous fittings to design the suit, which fastens with Velcro at the back, covers Pierre's torso and has small openings for his flippers. One concern was that the other penguins would reject Pierre in his new gear, but they accepted his sleek new look.
