The Portland zoo’s hornbill went on a ‘seal quest’ and the internet loves it

Zuberi the hornbill, a resident of the Portland’s Oregon Zoo, visited the institution’s seal enclosure as part of its ‘animal walk’ initiative. Sharing the one-minute video on Twitter, the zoo wrote, “Zuberi the hornbill went on a seal quest”.

The video shows the bird, walking through the enclosure as caretakers walk close by. The video also captures the moment where the bird stops inches away from a glass screen to observe an equally curious seal.

Multiple zoos have posted similar animal walk videos as lockdowns and restrictions prevent people from visiting the institutions. Recently, a video of two puppies, visiting a Georgia aquarium which was closed for the public due to the COVID-19 pandemic had also been widely shared on the internet.
