00:00White-lipped deer are native to the Eastern Tibetan Plateau and in their natural habitat
00:12they have a lot of snow and cold weather conditions so we have brought in a 16-ton
00:20ice shipment to provide this really fun snow experience for them.
00:30This is the first time the white-lipped deer have ever seen snow.
00:37We have a couple babies in here and this is their first winter.
00:46Sprinkled around you have some apples and carrots, acacia branches.
00:51Normally throughout the day in the wild a white-lipped deer would be foraging, grazing,
00:56looking for little snacks here and there and so that's what we've provided today
01:00kind of interspersed throughout the snow.
01:07We were really excited to see how they would respond with this snow experience
01:12and they pretty much did exactly what we hoped that they would.
01:16They went right in for it, they rolled around, they wallowed in the snow
01:20and they were really excited and we were so happy to share the experience with them.
