THE ZOO In the natural world, there are some creatures that are destined to never meet.

For example, we will sadly never know which party would prevail in a shark versus lion fight because home court advantage would be an automatic win.

This isnt such a dramatic example, but rather it's an adorable example of two creatures brought together because of zoos. In the video, four dolphins at SeaWorld Orlando are completely enthralled with two very fat squirrels who could not care less about the dolphins.

Now that youre watching dolphins watching squirrels, make sure to look over your shoulder to see if anyone (or anything) is watching you watch dolphins who watch squirrels.
