If you’re in need of some A+ animal content to break up a day of doom-scrolling, follow Jake Belair, aka @zookeeperjake on Twitter. He helps care for many of the animals at the Nashville Zoo, and he’s always sharing photos and videos from his adorable adventures — from weighing Winsol the aardvark and feeding bananas to the binturongs to playing with Neo, a cassowary chick (and fellow BON winner!) on a splash pad. Plus, you’ll learn things! Did you know owls can rotate their heads 270 degrees in either direction? Come for close-ups of clouded leopard toe beans, stay for pictures of delicious-looking cookies, cakes and galettes (which Jake sometimes bakes for humans and sometimes bakes for cows). MEGAN SELING
