Like drunken tuxedoed teens at their first prom, hordes of Magellan penguins have shown up on Brazilian beaches. The birds out of snow were wandering around the carioca beaches and resorts of Ipanema until the novelty wore off and they began to be viewed as a black and white pestilence.
That's when the Mardi Gras cliques stepped in and adopted the waddling wastrels and incorporated their cute little corpulent corpuscles into the Fat Tuesday fiestas. This winter, penguins will march not across the frozen reaches of Antartica but down the sundrenched and sex soaked boulevards of Rio.
Animal rights activists have begun protesting the exploitation of these beautiful birds. But penguin union spokesperson Tennessee Tuxedo told TheSpoof.com: "Exploitation my tail feathers! My birds have been freezing their asses off for centuries and finally we have found the Promised Land! Viva Brazil and Fuck Peta!"
