Clap Kills Penguins
CULTURE: Clap Kills Penguins

Chlamydia is a non-lethal human STD, but I guess if you are a penguin it's another story...

SAN FRANCISCO - An outbreak of chlamydia at the San Francisco Zoo has left a dozen penguins dead, according to a spokesman.



The bacteria, which was most likely transmitted to the birds by an infected seagull, is spread through airborne saliva or other bodily fluids, said Bob Jenkins, the zoo's director of animal care and conservation. A similar disease is sexually transmitted in humans.



Poor penguins...

"The clap" is gonorrhea.

Chlamydia must be "the clam."

I also hear it's the state flower of Florida.

I was hoping to be the one to clarify it and you beat me too it, but I feel quite amused someone named "rickets" was able to post this info.

I was much to slow to clarify. But now we can have a conversation about Mother Clap's Molly House.
