Dear Verena,
Thank you for your email. We have strict conditions in regard to Happy Feet’s visits. We would like to thank everyone across the world who have shown such care and concern for Happy Feet. Kate has worked solidly over two months to ensure the world has been well informed of anything to do with our resident guest. We have been inundated with requests like yours and we believe the competition is the fairest way to proceed for all concerned.
We are very much hoping he will do well back in the wild and will live a long and prosperous life.
Saphira is one of Happy Feet's greatest fans. She has been active in the online community and stood hours in the freezing weather to bring home more photos of Happy Feet for us to see. We all want her to meet Happy Feet. If you liked her photos and want to support this, please sign. We will then try to convince the Wellington Zoo, to have Saphira have her special date with our beloved penguin. PLEASE SUPPORT!!!

I just woke up thinking about how many people actually care about this penguin even if the zoo is playing hard to get with their official replies. It feels like I am just shouting into the void sometimes but then I see another person sign and I remember why Saphira really deserves this moment.

I really thought this might just fizzle out but seeing how many people jumped on board keeps me staring at the screen in pure disbelief. It actually feels like we have a genuine wave of energy behind us now which is just wild because I honestly started this on a whim during a long afternoon.
