I am keeping it very short here since am not sure whether Pepper's story was diaried or not...
Pepper,
You were together with Harry the unfaithful for six years at the San Francisco Zoo.You shared the same burrow and even raised a chick (Surrogate).How happy were you both!! How you both where symbols of Gay relationship...But Fig's death and Linda's interest in harry has changed your life totally...I can understand how bad you would have felt when you were chased away by Harry and Linda...
But Pepper you have been good..You have been faithful. You have been a loving partner and a wonderful parent (to the surrogate chick ).Harry might have left you heart broken.I know how bad you would be feeling.Here is my hugs to you!!! wish you good luck!!! Hope you get a brad/crowe/caprio soon :)
Flipping and flopping in more ways than one
Gay penguin leaves mate for a female: The San Francisco Zoo's "gay" penguins, Harry and Pepper, have gotten lots of publicity for the past six years that they have been co-habitating. They even hatched a surrogate chick and raised it together. But no more!
Looks like Harry ditched Pepper for a widowed lady penguin named Linda, who lived next door. Harry moved in with Linda and according to one of the zookeepers, when Pepper went peeking around the burrows looking for Harry, he was met with some hostility from the new couple. And just in case Pepper thought he could get back together, Harry went and had babies with the lass. Burn.
Watch this news report that sounds more like gossip I'd hear in the lady's room (Warning: you will feel sad for Pepper at the end):
