The Oakland Zoo is leaning into the holiday spirit and the animals seem to be loving it.
While the Zoo’s Glowfari event lights up the skies with giant glow-in-the-dark animal structures at night, the real-life animals have been munching on Thanksgiving treats during the day.
The Zoo was kind enough to send over some adorable photos and videos of their Thanksgiving feast, which included a tamarin eating a pumpkin, a tortoise eating an apple and sun bears chomping on gourds.
