Anthropomorphism, giving human traits to animals, is fun in children’s stories, but not always smart.
In the case pf “Lech el nemala…” (Shlomo HaMelech) or tznius from a cat (Gemara) these are words of Torah, and obviously there’s a true lesson there for us.
In the case of our famous penguin, well…
Nice story.
I’m not sure why one would feel the need to ‘shlug up’ (as DY so eloquently put it) the OP, even if it’s not necessarily total Emmes.
