It would seem not all animals long for the wild, namely this penguin.

The video below, which appeared on BuzzFeed's YouTube channel and has been going viral, shows the hesitant release of a baby penguin who just doesn't seem to want to go free.

While there are plenty of videos, like this one, that show animals hesitant to rejoin the wild, this penguin seems to be straight up afraid of the idea.

He'd much rather just have the comfort of his cage.

While we still support returning rescued animals to the wild, we have to give this one a break.
