Milwaukee County Zoo bloopers: Exotic animals like you've never seen them before

A crane at the Milwaukee County Zoo stares into a water bowl camera in a blooper reel released by the zoo on Facebook.

Yes, the Milwaukee County Zoo's animals are adorable.

Yes, they love to mug for cameras.

And yes, they're really photogenic.

But even the zoo's tigers, rhino, red Panda, primates and other creatures sometimes do stupid stuff or embarrass themselves, if it's possible for a rhino to be chagrined while being videotaped with a pumpkin stuck on his horn like an olive in a martini.

Last week the zoo posted a 1½-minute video of bloopers filmed of its denizens.

And the water bowl cams are pretty darn funny. Because who doesn't want to see a close-up view of giraffes or cranes assuaging their thirst?
