Zoos Are Posting Hilarious Amazon-Like Reviews Of Their Animals, And We Can’t Get Enough
We all know it's a good idea to check the product reviews before buying something, whether it is a washing machine or a bottle of hair conditioner. Most people are used to seeing a 1-5 star rating next to inanimate objects, however, Oregon Zoo decided to put a twist on the usual format.
On Friday, they started celebrating the start of the weekend by posting humorous reviews of their animals as if they were ordered on Amazon. The lighthearted joke went viral instantly and other animal enthusiasts picked up the trend as well. Soon, zoos, aquariums, wildlife centers and even regular pet owners all over the world were sharing their own witty comments under the hashtag #rateaspecies. Scroll down to see what animals received five-star ratings and don't forget to vote and comment on your favorites!

Turkey Vulture. Actually all birds of prey that eat carrion including crows keep the environment clean. They are super important for a balanced biosphere.

Honestly, I have never gotten drunk, not even close. I need to put that on my bucket list just to see what I would order. I am missing out.

Roomba. I giggled autism that part. I can only think of birds riding a vacuum bot on the house floor.

LMAO @ "Cordless" I love when the bats come out at night and zip around my yard. Cute little buggers doing a great job of keeping off the bad buggies.

I love the MB Aquarium, and can confirm these guys are everywhere, but can we discuss the seagulls? One stole my ice cream bar when I was five, and I've never truly recovered.

Make sure to add the headband umbrella accessory to your order. This item comes with a splatter gun built in.

I am so happy to hear that you've gotten your seal issue under control. What a gorgeous solution to that problem, I agree, more people really need to get behind them! 12/12 I need one! #rateaspecies

Absolutely incompatible with large white mammals that claim to offer fuel catching services. Buyer Beware.

Also a great Mother's Day gift, since males carry the offspring! Gives moms a break!

Lots of fun but extremely annoying that there is no individual identification... would have loved to find out more about some of these critters if I only knew what they were.
