A video of Ezotanuki buried in fallen leaves posted on Twitter by the zoo in Obihiro City, Hokkaido has gained popularity over 1.8 million times in half a month as “Mofmofu is cute”.
Obihiro Zoo opened an official Twitter account in April and posted videos and photos of animals taken in the park.
Of these, the two videos posted on the 13th of this month, Ezotanuki's male Shiro (11) and female ann (7), were particularly popular, and were played 1.82 million times in just half a month.
The video shows two animals buried in a pile of fallen leaves appearing to face each other, and it is very popular on the internet as “Movmofu is cute”.
According to the keeper who took the photo, we prepared a pile of fallen leaves with the habit of Ezo raccoon dogs looking for “hidden food”.
The keeper, Daishi Nakayama, said, “I'm trying to shoot some time because animals get nervous when I take photos.”
The Obihiro Zoo will start business from the 1st of next month in the winter season and will only open on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
