Zoos are recreating Chris Pratt's soon-to-be iconic raptor scene with walruses, penguins, and other slightly less lethal animals subbing in for the prehistoric creatures.
The meme apparently started when Tumblr blog Feminerds posted a still of Pratt from the film alongside a zookeeper doing the same pose. Other zoos then shared photos of their own, using hashtags like #JurassicZoo and #PrattKeeping. This is gas:
