How important to the heart and soul are these types of shares. 🤗

🎯😊

🤗

That's a horse 🧐

Maybe because those are spots they can't reach themselves?

Where do they live?

Don’t we all?

Tapers are such neat creatures. They act a lot like my yellow lab.

Animals are soul beings who feel just as much as human beings & can Love Us so much. They can read our hearts like a book. Being Kind is Animal's dominion but with respect & caution until they come to know a person.

Such a love🥰🇨🇦🥰

The little toes!!!! 😍

Places they have a hard time reaching.

That tapir baby is the cutest!

Because they can’t do it themselves 💙

Oh yeah

Who doesn’t!

this is true of many humans as well (i need a boyfriend)

Well... I AM an animal...

😍😍

Overwhelmingly cute!

The love of feeling connected is not limited to humans. 🫂. 💞

And the falling down, rolling over is universal! I love it!

🥰

the way to a critter's heart? scratch them where they can't reach.

Anteater?? 🥺just like my bulldog

Tapir 😊

Truly awesome.

What kind of animal is this? Adorable.

Tapir 😊

Thanks. Little one is adorable. Looks like a cross between zebra, pig, ant eater.

This keeper might want to exercise a little more caution unless she wants to end up like this: www.oklahoman.com/story/news/1...

There was a child mauled in another zoo incident. The kid should never have been present. The cute factor doesn't change that these are wild animals.

It's called having fleas. You would love a belly scratch too! 😂

Buzzkill much?

Such a relief to use enjoy happiness in lieu of Trump travesties

AND THE GOVERNMENT DOESNT WANT US PETTING ANY OF THEM >:c

Who doesn't?! LoL

Awwww, I love it!

..so please don't eat them🙏🙏🙏

Tapirs are really cool. This baby is adorable!

I got to belly rub a young cheetah once and it purred like a house cat and it was one of the best moments of my life 😍

Awwwww!

What a beautiful baby!

👍

Human desperately wants to boop that snoot!

Well, that’s adorable.

Omg, tapers are like puppies!!

Some humans like that too.🤣

What kind of animal is that please

It’s a tapir 😊

It’s been passed down through millennia, our ancestors on distant planets an age ago used it too. The Scritch is mankinds ‘lingua franca’ to all animals and mammals and lizards and anything else with a chin.

Awwe. That’s precious! 🥰❤️❤️❤️

❤️❤️❤️❤️

❤️❤️

The hardest places to reach! We have abnormally long appendages

A very tactile peeps

So cute :)

Beautiful

Amazing

Well, (big long breath) don't you???

It’s the first memory of being alive, having your mom clean you up. All love memories come from that

Lookit his little hooves! 🥹

Cute little guy

Dr Seuss creatures do❣️❣️

Awwww adorable. I love their little toes

Most people do too if they’re being honest

"Eeeeeeee" 😊

💕

The word 'most' is doing a lot of work here. 😆

Scratching them anywhere they can’t scratch themselves hits their brain like heroin.

I have no words for my jealousy. I love every anteater-shaped animal and I may cry if I ever get to pet literally any of them. These lil dough balls are so goddamn cute

That is a tarpir. They are definitely little dough balls.

Awww, this video makes me miss my zookeeping days!

Omg that’s so cute!

Why wouldn't they? They are living breathing mammals just like us. Everything on Earth loves being treated with love. Even plants. And reptiles and snakes and spiders. AND OCTOPUS and I'm pretty those things are actual aliens.

🥰❤️

@cajunblue.bsky.social

So sweet .

I know I do so scratch away!🦋

Humans are among those animals.

So do I

😊

Aww

Tapir?

Every being loves and needs love. 🥰 The little cutie.

Adorable!!!

I didn't know tapirs were that large when they grow up.

Tapir Mom is really calm and trusting of her keeper AND Keeper is expert at interacting with tapirs.

Is that a tapir? They're adorable.

I’m asking what it is myself

Yes, I think you are right. I love its coloring. 🥰

It is gorgeous colouring. Unfortunately it's only in the young; their coats become more uniform (like its mother here) when they get older.

Shame, but in the wild a more uniform coloring may be better for protection.

You’re right, it is a tapir. 😊

It's like humans sole purpose is to scratch those hard to reach spots 😁

I don't like scritching my own chin or belly, so it makes perfect sense that our nimble digits are here to be of service to others.

I was thinking the same thing. 😊 Could it be possible that our real evolutionary purpose was to use our nimble hands topped with ten scratch posts to give scritches to our fellow beings?

If you ask a pooch, they'll say yes!

Mine believe it is my sole reason for existence. Well that and delivering the food and treats😊

Interesting when you think about it. Being able to pet animals really helps us bond in a special way.

Petting an animal comes with so many benefits. I loved when customers would bring their pets. My stress would melt with the first scratches to a friendly head.

🥰 As a fellow animal , I totally get it 😁

🥹

The little one was blissed out!

I’ve watched this on a loop with a big smile in my face, it’s joyful.

What odd little feet!

Nice

One large cup of squeeeeee please!

Precious!

How do you stop a charging tapir?😜

Tapir ,I want to feel that skin ;how awesome is Mother?

Cute

So do I.

Extremely.

Because rubbing your belly with a hoof or claws just ain't the same.

Exactly!

😅🥲😍

awwwwwww I wanna scritch that chin and rub that belly.

As do I.👵🏝💙💛

Tapirs are large, herbivorous mammals belonging to the family Tapiridae. They are similar in shape to a pig, with a short, prehensile nose trunk. Tapirs inhabit jungle and forest regions of South and Central America and Southeast Asia. They are related to equines and rhinoceroses

What animal is this?
