PRINCE WILLIAM and KATE MIDDLETON are now proud parents…of a penguin. Yeah, forget a puppy or kitten – Wills and Kate decided to go all out and get started on their urban zoo. Except now – their new baby, Acorn, will stay at The Chester Zoo with all his peers.

So it turns out Acorn was a gift from the zoo, with Wills and Kate more being symbolic parents than real parents.

“Hopefully the happy couple will come and see little Acorn playing in his pool very soon,” a zoo spokesman said Friday. “It’s a real honour to be able to boast Prince William and Kate as penguin adopters.”

Darn – I really liked the idea of the Duke and Duchess having a penguin pool in their backyard.
