Headline: RAW VIDEO: Animals At Brookfield Zoo Enjoy Valentine's Day Treats

Caption: In celebration of Valentine’s Day, animals at Brookfield Zoo recently received heart-shaped treats from their animal care staff. The Zoo’s grey seals seemed to enjoy their ice and gelatin treats as did the bottlenose dolphins, whose Valentine’s message welcomed them back home after renovations to their habitat. Sasha, one of the Amur leopards, eagerly devoured the raw meat given to her in the shape of hearts. And, then there was Jasper, a pink cockatoo, who preferred tossing heart-shaped paper cutouts on the ground rather than eating the sliced strawberries. The animal care staff is always thinking of ways to physically and mentally stimulate the animals at Brookfield Zoo. One way is by providing them with a variety of different enrichment and food items they normally do not receive on a regular basis.
