Meet Nils Olav the Penguin Colonel:
Penguin receives knighthood at Edinburgh zoo. Penguin receives honours in a tradition that was introduced in the early 1970s by a young Norwegian lieutenant
He wore an impeccable black and white coat, and his right sleeve was adorned with medals. Colonel-in-chief of the Norwegian army Nils Olav stood to attention as he received a knighthood this morning in front of 30 members of the Norwegian guard at Edinburgh zoo.
Waddling out to receive the honour, his belly full of blue whiting fish, and standing at around 2 feet 8 inches high, he must have been the shortest knight in history.
