A real penguin was spotted at the book distribution center of Penguin Random House, all thanks to Maryland Zoo for making this possible!
The two companies collaborated and Penguin Random House donated to the conservation efforts to protect African penguin habitats. Apparently, it turned out that the African penguin population has declined by 90% in the last 100 years
The post was generally well-accepted by the netizens, though there were some who showed dismay why the penguin was used for publicity, like, "Should we be using wild animals as props? Something wrong about this, I think."
What do you think about it?
