Whoever thought of this video deserves the biggest raise ever

[@marcopohl4875]

I don't know who thought this was a good idea... But they were right!

[@juliocastro9563]

Having been a member for close to 2 years, it always amazes me what I learn from this wonderful place. Feeding close to 3600 animals totaling 300 species is no easy task with specialized diets all over the place. Responsible for bringing back an endangered species, the California Condor, back from the brink of extinction in the early 80's. Can't wait to go back and never get tired of watching this video!

[@datgal2u]

Should be a lot longer. It only showed a few food items and basically giraffes. I wanted to see the animals eat the fruit they were cutting up, etc. So food prep from beginning to the end where they feed 'em to each animal. At least show 10 types of animals and their food.

[@MistressOP]

i know right i wanted to see all the animals

[@KaraAshleyThrace]

Agreed, I've watched a few videos from this channel now and they are all High Quality content w/o a doubt but I feel they are too short. I'd really enjoy more in depth or just more of what they are filming. I'd have to imagine they have tons of unused footage so why not make them longer or have Alternate Longer versions. This is KZbin you more is better!

[@tosht2515]

I expected more than just a single signature Katie "wow" but glad she slipped one in @6:17. 😂 People need to know how vital San Diego Zoo is for animal conservancy. They research, reproduce and care for hundreds of endangered species and successfully help reintroduce animals into the wild that could have gone extinct. Very cool episode. 👍

[@EnycmaPie]

When the food preparation for animals is better than most fast food chains.

[@kaleb7636]

all*

[@MistressOP]

I wish we could have even more of this just feeding them lol recipes all of it. BEST EATER ever

[@biohazard429]

Watching that giraffe eat made my day. Wish we could've seen more animals eat that yummy food.

[@mfrenchcazenovia]

Actually, as a chef, this is my dream job.

[@palebluedot8818]

cutest eater video ever!

[@beaniebabeeluver]

This video is awesome! It is very interesting! Also, knowing that the animals are getting the same fruits and vegetables as we are is excellent!

[@AzlianaLyana]

3000 animals?? WOW ...Ok should start very early then :) Cutting team! Packing team!

[@amandaliew3344]

Pls do a series on zoo feeding

[@mtblack21]

I would love more on zoos you focused mainly on giraffes, I think an in depth look at different animals and diet would be good.

[@aousa.ibraheem4956]

This show amazing and let me say : Katie you’re so cute and you have great personality.... Wish you the best; and please keep doing this great work 💕

[@DanielWhiting]

It'll always be the Wild Animal Park to me. Fellow San Diegans know what I mean!

[@AndrewInvest]

DAMN RIGHT!!!

[@bludhound73]

Yes indeed. The commercials on TV as a kid ingrained Wild Animal Park in my head.

[@matthewb9241]

That’s a beautiful zoo. I would love to visit one day.

[@dova3282]

Man i wish this video was longer

[@applemauzel]

1:54 What about the meat, does the meat also comes from the same supplier that feeds their animal as the supplier for their guests?

[@unorec1983]

So it's like feeding college students

[@DhakaHyanataR]

As a college student, this is better. Except for the mice

[@eligabb4423]

Pfff.... not even close. People complain a lot. 😉

[@randi-q6k]

When animals nutrition are better than my daily nutrition😂

[@ShaneWalta]

So... Part 2 featuring some of the other animals?

[@daveotuwa5596]

I've been there 2 yrs ago for spring break

[@aryaophex3872]

wow , Amazing video love it

[@iananderson7883]

Looks a lot better than some of the slop you see on human cooking shows.

[@bethanya99]

That was awesome!!!

[@DevilWay]

Wow eating high grade food damn these animals are eating high class as well lol

[@hg1986]

when what zoo animals eat is healthier than your meal... rethinking my life now 😂

[@amphoblue81]

I wish this was longer I would’ve loved to see the different exhibits and the feeding processes

[@davisx2002]

those animals eat better than I do.

[@justaddmusclecom]

Wow, that is a crazy amount of resources. Really interesting video.

[@ohgodyehyou]

Awesome

[@JustinY.]

That's quite a lot of food.

[@rubiagatra]

First

[@JakeLovesSteak]

For quite a lot of animals.

[@SaKOTR]

And people wonder/complain why ticket prices creep up each year. Takes money to feed, and food prices go up each year too.

[@rex3881]

I didn't want it to end

[@yusenye4828]

Do I get to eat of of these animal?

[@zedrhyx1788]

I thought it said how too feed the Whitehouse

[@Skorrigan]

They eat better things than I do...

[@leviyouler3362]

Really short video for. A whole day

[@mfrenchcazenovia]

I hope the mice are from the same supplier as they use for their guests.

[@mfrenchcazenovia]

Restaurant-grade mice! Now we're talking.

[@agungsaputra8737]

[@guccigav7912]

Free Harambe 2019!!!

[@danowolf]

Where are the animal feed mice? Not sure but we just made the sausage for human consumption .....

[@MidnightCravings]

Pair with a nice bottle of wine.

[@ladylamps6083]

I thought she was Amy Schumer haha

[@TheTaygan]

No it was A Rhino...

[@centpushups]

hytoestrogens are also very dangerous to humans. Quite honestly I think these toxic hormones are responsible for these weird behaviors in men and women.

[@JPzizou]

I wonder how much it costs per day. Bet the staff eat the food also

[@Vajfom]

These animal eat better then me! 😢

[@syahidkacak]

Vegans are shaking

[@lennoxchen8646]

I don't know. Maybe by mouth. Is that how they eat?

[@Carrejae35]

Kwok Chong Chen did you read the title? It says “what it takes to feed 3000 animals a day” not how. Fucking moron

[@SuperLeonardo40]

Stop anima abuse.Let animals be free in the wild.

[@catatonic8313]

is that amy schumer😅

[@yanooo2007]

She needs a diet too

[@mysisterisafoodie]

No wonder these animals can’t survive in the wild.

[@RubenGoMoRadioboyPlus]

They eat sadness. THEY 👏 MUST 👏 BE 👏 FREE 👏 NOW

[@JakeLovesSteak]

Those animals have a much better life than they would have had in the wild.

[@nassyl1]

@@JakeLovesSteak Not to defend mr. claps between words but how can you possibly reach that conclusion? That life is so very different. You know nothing about how those animals feel and cannot begin to speculate as to how they would have felt in the wild.

[@Mark-vm1ue]

Nils just look at them... they are living in paradise. They have plenty of food, water, and space. They get to roam and mingle with other animals. Free from predators... the wild is a dangerous place and these animals are living at a 5 star resort.
