Going to the zoo as a kid was one of the best activities around. Getting to see all the animals that you'd seen either on television or in books. I miss the blissful ignorance of not realising how cruel it was to keep wild animals in small cages. But, anyway.

Being a zookeeper used to seem like one of the coolest jobs! Getting to hang out with lions, zebras and seals seemed like one of the best things to do with your life. Especially getting to understand all the unique behaviours that the animals exhibit--although, even zoo keepers are sometimes surprised! Reddit user KingDoggo173 posed the question: Zookeepers of Reddit, what is the weirdest thing you've seen an animal do?

I appreciate the demographic specification of this revelation
