Sigrid the penguin is just one of over 1,700 animals residing in Germany’s Hannover Adventure Zoo. Over the past few weeks, she and each of her zoo-dwelling counterparts were weighed and measured -- a herculean task indeed!

We hope they were all as well-behaved during the process as little Sigrid, who looks like she took the weighing in stride.
