Now we’ve taken this theory one stage further. If we increase the size of the penguin until it is the same height as the man and then compare the relative brain sizes, we now find that the penguin’s brain is still smaller. But, and this is the point, it is larger than it was. ---

Once upon a time, there was an enchanted prince, who ruled the land beyond the wobbles. One day, he discovered a spot on his face. Foolishly, he ignored it…and three years later, he died of cancer. Trivia fact: This is from the movie “And now for something completely different”. In the Flying Circus they overdubbed CANCER with GANGRENE, as the BBC would not let them use the word cancer in a comedy sketch. [Cite](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066765/trivia/?item=tr4453447). So it goes like this: Once upon a time, there was an enchanted prince, who ruled the land beyond the wobbles. One day, he discovered a spot on his face. Foolishly, he ignored it…and three years later, he died of ~~cancer~~ GANGRENE. ---
