The Vesuvius Twins are a pair of brothers from The Penguins of Madagascar who love to torment the zoo animals by throwing things at them, roughhousing with them, and playing pranks on them.
They are both voiced by Atticus Shaffer, who worked on media such ay Harvey Girls Forever, Fish Hooks, Steven Universe, Hancock, Arlo the Alligator Boy, and The Middle and The Unborn.
Why They Suck
- They're stereotypes of rich spoiled children and are extremely selfish.
- They like to torture the zoo animals just for their own amusement and play mean pranks on them such as shaving Marlene's tail and painting Pinky the Flamingo green.
- They were at their absolute worst on Pets Peeved where they adopt Skipper and King Julien by abusing them and treated them like pets.
- They're also manipulators as they manipulated King Julien in defeating Skipper with shiny objects on Pets Peeved.
- They buy all the tickets for the annual zoo sleepover just so they can abuse the zoo animals.
- They have lawyers so they can sue Alice whenever they don't get their way.
- They throw food at the zoo animals' faces such as an ice cream cone in Burt the Elephant's eye even though he's lactose intolerant.
- At the end of Night of the Vesuviuses, where it seems they learned to stop abusing the animals, they instead decided to abuse people who aren't as rich as them.
- They are completely one dimensional as the show never explains why they are selfish and bratty and never explains why they liked to abuse animals so much. They just act like that to make the plot “work”.
Redeeming Qualities
- Thankfully, they are not karma houdinis, as they usually get their comeuppance in many of their appearances such as Pets Peeved.
- Atticus Shaffer does an alright job voicing them.
- They did learned their lesson and stopped abusing the zoo animals at the end of Night of the Vesuviuses, even though they started to abuse people instead.
