'Twas the Day Before Zoo Day

This delightful adaptation of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas', shares zoo keeper and animal preparations for the upcoming "Zoo Day." But things aren’t going according to plan . . . The llamas won't quit spitting, the giraffes are drooling, and the zebras aren't happy at all with their stripes. Meanwhile, the zoo keepers are scurrying this way and that, cleaning up poop, ringing mealtime bells, and trying to get the animals bathed. Will "Zoo Day" go off without a hitch?
