It's sunny where they are, and penguins live in extremely cold climates. Putting sweaters on them in a hotter than normal temperature would be something close to torture, correct?

These are penguins from New Zealand who got oil on them from a spill in October. The wool sweaters help soak up the oil as well as keeping the little guys from preening themselves, which causes them to ingest the oil. Since they are warm weather penguins and wool is extremely breathable, they are just fine.

Ok, I see. I knew there was a possibility that they were warm weather penguins but I wasn't sure, and the fact that they are used to help them since they were hit by the oil spill means it makes all the more sense. Now that I know the penguins are happy, I shall be happier for seeing the penguins and bequeath unto you one modest upvote.
