here is a monkey eating some poop.
That said, I consider it self-evident that there is far too vast a selection of hilarious and/or horrific zoo-related YouTube videos to post just one. Additionally, the more video content I can cram into this post, the less lacking in substance it will seem. Here is a series, then - a sort of "YouZoo" (I'm not taking that back).
Here is an uneventful video featuring two donkeys wandering around; nothing bad happens, especially not at forty seconds in.
Similarly, this calm, collected zoo patron takes a break from the heat:
Phylan's YouTub runs on Thursdays at Noon.


Good videos Phylan, but instead of YouZoo I would've gone with ZooTub. Though I suppose that is as subjective as the differences between the Bro and Mansierre.

Shit, you're right.

Though I'm not certain footage of this exists on youtube, I highly recommend trying to find a clip of Tai Shan's birth. That little bugger literally shoots out of his mom like he's coming out of water slide.

I couldn't find his birth but here is the cute little bastard at three weeks:

Oh come on Lauren you were totally curious.

I have now taken the time to view your first few clips. Sweet fancy moses those are awful. What kind of zoo feeds live donkeys to their animals? I am seriously, seriously distressed.
