Watch How Flamingos Eat Underwater

The San Diego Zoo is home to different animals like lions, koalas, and giraffes. They also have a YouTube channel where they show how these animals live inside the zoo. In this video, the Zoo shares with us footage of how flamingos eat. Watch as these pink animals poke their heads in and through the water and suck in water and mud through the front of their bills, and pump them at the side. Thanks to the filters found in their mouths which trap tiny shrimp and small critters, the flamingos can have a decent meal as they scan the waters.

Yum!
