This is the playful moment that a ring-tailed meerkat amusingly mimicked a sunflower by spreading its arms towards the sun.

On January 15, 2025, at a zoo in Nanjing, Jiangsu, China, the video captured this delightful meerkat as it stood on its hind legs, arms spread wide, seemingly embracing the sunlight.

Visitors at the zoo were captivated by the sight, as the meerkat held the pose, drawing smiles and laughter.

According to animal experts, the meerkat's behavior was an instinctual act to maximize sunlight exposure, vital for their warmth and wellbeing.

The event ended with the meerkat contentedly returning to its normal activities after enjoying the sun's warmth, leaving visitors with a memorable sight from their day at the zoo.
