Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium in Tacoma, Washington, took to Twitter to introduce their African giant pouched rat named Celine, sharing a cute clip of her chowing down on a pumpkin treat in honor of Halloween.

In their post, the keepers claimed that this "fuzzy, cute, and smart" rat's pumpkin treat was "tiny," but we beg to disagree. The gourd is as big as she is!

"Snow leopard Yuki is all of us running to get pumpkin everything," keepers at Philadelphia Zoo claimed in their recent tweet.

The post included an adorable clip of Yuki bounding down a tree in her habitat to spring onto a squash and then lick it. This short sweet clip may just make you want to lick a pumpkin spice latte!

Even cows are into pumpkins!

A muskox calf named Willow was thrilled to butt a pumpkin around with her nose, as another sweet video from Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium shows.

One Twitter user joked, "Now I understand why beaver teeth are orange."
