Lucky the penguin now frolics with his friends thanks to special shoe

Once the crowds had thinned and Lucky the penguin had put on his everyday black shoe, he rejoined the rest of the flock as the birds squawked and swam in front of delighted children and their parents.

Even through he walks with a decided limp, Lucky is now able to blend in and frolic with the rest of the 17 Humboldt penguins at the Santa Barbara Zoo, thanks to a special shoe developed by footwear manufacturer Teva, a brand of Deckers Outdoor Corp., based in Goleta, Calif.
