Today on Twitter ......

(written February 24, 2019) 

*Author’s Note: The photographs in this blog entry are not mine at all, these are all photos screen captured off of Twitter(dot)com and shared due to the wonderful "event" that was created on social media because of it.  This event actually ended up making national (possibly world) news.  It was a LOT of fun, and there are THREE TOTAL ENTRIES TO THIS SERIES.

@SeattleAquarium = Seattle Aquarium in Seattle, WA 

as a side mention, @ComoZoo=Como Zoo in St. Paul, MN ... is the Zoo we'd frequent when we lived in Wisconsin .

Something amazing happened today on Twitter ....  The internet was almost broke with cuteness ... the days of boring depressing news was interrupted by the ultimate tweet battle that everyone should love!

It all started when the National Zoo tweeted about their brand new (4 day old) gray seal pup

Thanks to a woman named Sarah Hill Darrow .... challenging the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center to top that

.....  and #ChallengeAccepted....  Virginia Aquarium posted this ....

 National Zoo came back with this adorable little orangutan.... asking Virginia Aquarium if they fold yet!?

 Of course Virginia Aquarium does not fold .... has no intention of EVER folding!

National Zoo is getting a bit bored.....

 So why not throw in some other Zoos!  Like the Virginia Zoo ....   and let me tell you - the gauntlet was way more than thrown ...

And the #CUTEANIMALTWEETOFF exploded all over twitter....

One word..........  Sloth....

..... I mean Sloths ...... OMG Sloths .......  My heart.... 

Red Panda .....  be still my heart..... 

Is this otter sucking on it's tail like a baby sucks it's thumb to go to sleep?   WINNER!!!! 

Honestly I think Nico and Santos could have their OWN contest ...  LOL

And I adore the fact that our first respondents in FUR showed up to represent!!!

SLOTHS!!!!!!

Even the Irwins at the Australian Zoo got into the mix!!
