The New York Aquarium on Coney Island recently discovered one of its penguin couples is gay. Blood testing determined the two 14-year-old black-footed penguins -- who both top and bottom for each other -- are male. Wendell and Cass have been together for eight years.
"They're one of the most dedicated couples in the penguin enclosure," said aquarium spokeswoman Angie Pelekedis. "They sleep in the same nest. They even have sex, though I don't know how successful that is."
Penguin keeper Stephanie Mitchell explained: "I was only seeing one mate with the other, but then one of the other keepers saw it happen the other way round. We did a blood test that proved they were both male."
