The Night Zora Got Stuck In The Zoo 🐯🗝️ Funny Short Stories for Kids! Mar 22, 2025

Show notes

Today, we're heading back to Taronga Zoo, but this time, it's on a lovely day trip, with Zora, and her Uncle Aziz! Only Zora spends a little too long cooing at the baby hippos, and gets locked in! That means she has the whole zoo to herself, all night long. That seems like sooo much fun, and not scary at all! Until she sees some eyes gleaming at her from the darkness... 👀
