Netflix’s vast library of shows and movies caters to just about every preference. This time, however, it’s narrowing down its focus like a hawk toward a specific audience: those with a penchant for all things cute and cuddly. If this is you, get ready to experience baby fever on a whole other level.
Swinging from tree to tree and right to your line of sight is Baby Animal Cam, an irresistible livestream starring the offspring of various species from the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. Quietly making its debut on the platform on October 12, it follows in the baby-sized footsteps of Baby Gorilla Cam, another recent series recorded at the same zoo.
According to Netflix, with Baby Animal Cam, viewers can “keep an eye on the daily routines, quirky habits, and cozy habitats of several baby animals at Cleveland Metroparks.” It’s no adrenaline-pumper like Squid Game, for sure, and sometimes a slow activity like watching little critters nod off, nose about their surroundings, and do whatever babies do best is all we need.
You’ll get two whole hours of sheer cuteness each week as you meet the zoo’s newest residents, like baby rhino Dahlia, the youngest in her herd but already tipping the scales at just over 1,000 pounds. You’ll also witness the antics of two-year-old otter siblings Budiwati and Bagus, two-year-old orangutan Zaki, and baby gorillas Kunda and Kayembe, who previously stole the spotlight in Baby Gorilla Cam.
Baby Animal Cam streams in real-time on Thursdays at 2 p.m. ET (11 a.m. PT) until November 4. If you snooze, you can still replay the broadcasts afterwards. If you’re in need of a pick-me-up, huddle up with your herd in front of the television. Your heart will thank you.
