Knowledge management and penguins

Definitely the best story of the day was referenced in The Daily Telegraph.  The story refers to the New Scientist which summarises findings published in the journal Animal Behaviour.  Little penguins were observed picking specific friends to take fishing.  The implication is that the penguins are able to 'share knowledge' about fishing sites.

This news is not surprising to those of us with a grounding in Pingu-ology.  Pingu met Robby, his best friend, on a fishing trip.  They pooled their expertise and had a very successful day's fishing.
