Philadelphia Zoo Metallic Starling Food Frenzy

The Philadelphia Zoo staff provides the tastiest, most nutritious, food possible for all the animals. How do I know that? Because I see scenes like this all the time! All the animals at the Zoo love their food!

Nice video! They do seem like they enjoy their food!  Do you happen to know where the zoo gets their food and how much it costs them?

[ZooVisitorMM]

@phantompanther I'm sorry, I don't know exactly where the food comes from or what it costs. But I do know the Zoo is very much promoting buying locally grown food, so wherever possible, I am sure the food is coming from not too far away. And, I also know the Zoo is super efficient money-wise, so it will be costing the least possible without compromising quality. The food is all carefully measured, mixed, and prepared on the Zoo grounds by the Zoo staff for all the animals.

@ZooVisitorMM No, no! That's okay! I don't expect you or anyone else to know everything that I ask! I tend to ask a lot of questions, heh. Sounds about right and pretty awesome too! Thanks a lot!
