Truck Filled with Penguins Overturns

From Marshall, Texas:

Motorists dodged penguins on an East Texas highway today after a truck carrying the flightless birds overturned.

The rig was hauling penguins, exotic fish and one octopus to the Galveston Zoo when the accident happened on U.S. Highway 59, eight miles north of Marshall.

Unfortunately, four of the penguins and several fish died. Fortunately, the truck driver, his passenger, and the rest of the animals seem to be okay, save for one penguin with a broken wing.
