Penguins at the Detroit Zoo Woo Prospective Mates and Everyone Is in Love

It's just so romantic!

Penguins are such fascinating animals, especially when it comes to their love life. When a penguin chooses a mate, he selects a pebble or stone to give to his beloved. If his intended companion approves, she puts the stone in her nest and the two are well on their way to becoming boyfriend and girlfriend.

The TikTok account for the @Detroitzoo recently uploaded this sweet video. Get ready to swoon!

@Maria hilariously comments, "That one male penguin gave like 10 rocks to the female real love right there he’s not giving up." We love a tenacious suitor! @Bikefish replies, "I would love to know what the penguin beauty standard for rocks is." Haha! @TayloeRuddie has a whole different interpretation of this mating ritual and says, "I thought it was Babybel cheese at first. I’m like “yes I will also accept cheese as gifts.” Us too girl, us too.

Here's hoping all these penguins found their perfect rock, and their perfect mate!
