As you have seen how the penguins were meeting their companions in their territory. Here are some more heart melting incidents. Due to the Coronavirus quarantine the zoos all over the world have been locked to the visitors. But the keepers have taken time to share the moments of animals meeting each other and share their day-to-day life activities on social platforms. This helps to make smiles on our faces.
The most heart touching moments are the videos of the zoo animals seeing each other for the first time in their life. The most viewed activities were the meetups of the zoo animals. A loveable meetup of a sea lion with a tegu went viral recently. The loveable dubiety seen on the sea lions face made this video to be viewed more than 96k times. We looked in for more such videos and here are some more incidents like that. Hope you will enjoy the cuteness of the animals.

Remember Hodari, our adorable little milky eagle owl chick? She took a trip to the Children’s Zoo recently to meet the koi fish! We are introducing her to all kinds of sights and sounds right now, so she’ll grow up to be confident and a great ambassador for her species. pic.twitter.com/4QdkVJj69l

So this much unreal for us such animal meetups are common for zookeepers
I’ll be real we do this all the time anyways lol (at my facility we call it “visual species interaction” to sound ~fancy~) we just don’t usually record it and put it on our social media! Plus right now we can go for like, long walks and not have to worry about operating hours woo
