Be Thankful That You’re Not A Snowman At Zoo Boise!

It's not everyday that you see a couple lions demolish a snowman. Check out this video posted by Zoo Boise on their Facebook page.

At first, the zoo's resident female lions - Mudiwa and Obadih - seem puzzled, then quickly entertained by the seemingly-friendly snowman built in their enclosure. Javari, the male, is seen lurking in the background.

There's actually a reason behind why Zoo Boise builds snowmen for the lions. It's called "Snowman Enrichment." Zoo Outreach and Communication Director Liz Littman told KTVB the enrichments are often a fun way to get the animals active and prevent boredom.

"They've made snowmen for years for the animals," said Liz Littman, adding "This is something that's certainly fun for them."

Apparently, the lions like to go for the arms first. I think I'll stay behind the window and watch them from there.
