The World Cup is being held in South Africa this year, and organizers are making sure animals are included in the festivities. With vuvuzelas blaring and colorful flags waving, lions, elephants, rhinos and more will experience the excitement of the games through educational programs designed especially for them. Zoos and wildlife parks around the country are hosting World Cup themed activities to help animals understand why humans are so thrilled about the biggest sporting event in the world.
