It might feel like we’re living in slightly apocalyptic times, but you wouldn’t know it if you paid attention to any animal right now.
March brings with it warmer weather, budding blossoms and sunnier days – and boy are these guys happy about it.
Whether you’re self-isolating, working from home or just trying to keep your head above water right now, here are some animals whose joy will hopefully bring you happiness and light relief.
