During the 2024 total solar eclipse, zoo animals such as giraffes, gorillas, and lions displayed uncommon behavior, observed by scientists and zookeepers at the Fort Worth Zoo in Texas. Elephants, giraffes, and other animals moved towards their barns as the sky darkened, while zebras and giraffes were seen running. Chimpanzees patrolled the premises, and birds like flamingos formed clusters before the totality. The eclipse, visible in the US, Canada, and Mexico, occurs when the Moon obscures the Sun. This fascinating phenomenon prompted curiosity and vigilance among the animal kingdom, adding another layer to the eclipse experience.
