At Living Coasts in Torquay, Devon of UK, the authorities painted the world's first zebra crossing
for penguins which are kept at Penguins Beach after the request from the zoo keepers. Every day a colony of 80 African penguins cross the wide footpath to make way through from Penguin Beach to meet their keepers to during the feed time. Wow, how smart the zoo keepers!
"It's hard to teach a penguin
road safety, but the zebra crossing does alert visitors to the fact that the birds cross there.
"They live on Penguin Beach but are fed in the public area which means a fair bit of to-ing and fro-ing.
"The crossing has been put down to show visitors where the penguins cross the public walkway and to emphasise the need to take care.
