To own a penguin legally will require a lot of permits and paperwork, plus you would only be able to obtain a penguin that was born in captivity from a facility holding USDA permits. Like other species of birds, penguins do better in number so you wouldn't want to own 1 or 2 because penguins are social animals.
Unfortunately, you will not see penguins for sale on this or any other website.

Gotta figure, if i could afford five or six penguins, and 2000 lbs of fresh fish per year, and the permits AND the pool... I think if i had that much money to throw at a penguin pool, I'd be a pretty happy individual.
Now, to win the lottery...and convince my wife we need a pod of penguins...
