Newt Gingrich was bitten by a penguin at the Saint Louis Zoo on Friday during a private tour, zoo officials said.

The candidate was on the tour before giving a speech to the National Rifle Association convention when "he was nipped on the finger" by a Magellanic penguin, Susan Gallagher, the zoo's public relations director, told Reuters on Monday. A Band-Aid, she added, "took care of the injury."

Gingrich has made frequent zoo visits a part of his presidential campaign, and he even wrote the foreword to 2008's "America's Best Zoos: A Travel Guide for Fans & Families." He's the GOP's Jack Hanna, if you will.

In 1995, then-House Speaker Gingrich was bitten on the chin by a baby cougar following a Capitol Hill news conference, drawing a spot of blood.

"Newt is a zoo fan," Gingrich campaign spokesman R.C. Hammond said. "He will be back."

Given that zoo penguin diet consists mostly of rancid fish... there must be something fishy about Newt.

I wonder if Newt was cheating with the penguin?

"I want to take this opportunity to mention how thankful I am for an Obama re-election. The choice was clear. We cannot live in a country that treats homosexuals and women as second class citizens. Homosexuals deserve all of the rights and benefits of marriage that heterosexuals receive. Women deserve to be treated with respect and their salaries should not depend on their gender, but their quality of work. I am also thankful that the great, progressive state of California once again voted for the correct President. America is moving forward, and the direction is a positive one."

Maybe the penguin thought Newt was an actual newt....

I saw it on fox (by accident). It started with a split screen. Newt on on side, penguin on the other. Penguin picture blown up to same size as Newt. They had the exact same profile!!

I thought it was on purpose but then realized it was fox. Is fox mad at Newt or something???????????

I just went to fox to see if it was on the internet but they changed the photo. the penguin looks about the same.

if you watch the vid, the first picture of Newt was more like Newt walking out on stage at 47 sec.
