Twycross Zoo's Penguins. Freaks of nature or something sinister?

In an unusual turn, 3 of the penguins at Twycross Zoo have mutated their coats to match the clothing of some of the visitors to the zoo.

Twycross Zoo's Penguins. 3 have changed colour to blue, green and purple.

Could this be related to the missing llama? Should it have been a lemur that disappeared?

Edit: No harm came to any birds in the making of this picture for the 32nd March 2009.

Edit: Realising that the chance of a polarbear (thats me! - site logo) actually meeting a penguin, let alone the ~10 in this picture is very unlikely, I would like to remind you that the photograph was taken in a zoo.
