Male Magellan penguins Harry and Pepper, San Francisco Zoo’s popular gay duo have split up after six years. The pair were reportedly doing well, doing the family thing by incubated an egg laid by another penguin in 2008, that is until a female penguin by the name of Linda got her home-wrecking flippers into Harry. Apparently, a lonely Linda befriended Harry after her long-time companion died. Pepper was not having that, becoming increasingly violent. Nothing like a love scorned gay penguin, all the hysterics of a female with the strength of a male. Eventually, the trio had to be separated after Pepper opened up a can of whoop ass. According to Zookeeper Jennifer Katz, “They have been doing okay since. They have been getting along okay. But Pepper is by himself now, so we are keeping an eye on the three of them.”
