Ralph, a Humboldt penguin, baffled staff at a zoo near Winchester when he suddenly went bald, losing all his feathers in one day. Humboldt penguins normally shed old feathers over a few weeks while they grow new ones. But Ralph only kept the feathers on his head, putting him at serious risk of getting sunburnt.

This year, instead of spending three weeks indoors and away from his group (as he's had to do every year when his feathers fall out), his keepers have found him a mini wetsuit that lets him swim, fish and play with the other penguins.

The wetsuit is causing quite a stir amongst visitors to the zoo, but Ralph seems to love it.
