Whoa, whoa,
Hold on a cotton-pickin' minute. Everyone knows penguins are a strong X-ray source. Unless you cooled the penguin down to a sufficiently low temperature to shift the peak of its Planck curve into the UV...?

Happy candle day as well, by the way.

Penguins live in the Antarctic, and are hence cooled. They used to live in warmer climates but their x-ray emissions were the cause of too much mass-voyeurism so they were rounded up and herded to the South Pole.

But I see a brave, nostalgic few still return to the shores of South Africa every so often.
