Last weekend we came across this penguin, a Jackass penguin I'm told, some what struggling on the beach. We tried returning him back into the big blue sea but he wasn't having any of it. He would torpedo back onto the beach and waddle back up to us.
He followed us off the beach and we carried him the rest of the way home. The first thing he did when we got back was check out our dogs, two Jack Russles, who were completely unfazed with the difference in appearance and surprisingly friendly. Once he was settled in we fed him all our bait, some good old tasty pilchards served at room temperature in a bowl of warm water (He wouldn't eat it any other way).
Finally we got him to the NSRI in Port Alfred, who were super helpful. They preceded to drop him off at a sanctuary. We got an update yesterday and he seems to be doing really well.

You are responsible for the photos and videos you submit to Shot Bru. If you didn’t take the shot yourself, or make the video, get permission from the owner first. If you’ve got your eyes on a Shot Bru prize or a spot in the pages of the main mag, please upload to Shot Bru before sending your photos on Facebook and other surfing websites cyber rounds. Fresh photos get priority for prizes and print. Finally, by loading image(s) onto Shot Bru you are granting Zigzag permission to feature your image(s) in the magazine, on the website and across our social media platforms free of charge.
Waveski, SUP, etc shots regularly get deleted due to a technical glitch. This glitch does not seem to affect surfing shots, which shotbru.co.za was designed for. We are having our developer look into the problem.
PLEASE NOTE: If you are posting a pic of a secret / semi-secret spot or a sensitive location, DO NOT say where it is. Shot Bru is for sharing photos and stoke. Not for exposing secret spots. The administrator reserves the right to change the description or nuke the shot if you don’t comply.
If you are going to upload photos of secret or very sensitive surf spots. Be vague about the location, or better yet flat out lie. We're okay with either.
