Check in at the zoo and get a movie ticket for *Everybody Loves Animals*.

Taipei Zoo is one of the most popular attractions during summer vacation, whether you're visiting as a family, a couple, or friends—it's a lot of fun for everyone. Just after Qixi Valentine’s Day, do you know how animals express love? The public can collect a raffle ticket by “checking in” at specific animal zones at the zoo from August 19 (Friday) and reading the “animal view on love” displayed on information boards, with a chance to win two tickets to a special preview screening of *Everybody Loves Animals*.

Yeh Chieh-sheng, director of Taipei Zoo, said that the zoo has launched a variety of activities during the summer vacation aiming to balance educational value with entertainment. That’s why Taipei Zoo has partnered with the movie *Everybody Loves Animals* to present informational boards about animal courtship in the brown bear area, gorilla area, lion area, giraffe area, and Asian elephant area—helping the public understand how animals, who don’t communicate via language, fall in love and pair up.

Although visitors can learn about animal love through the information boards, they may not necessarily see the animals displaying such behaviors in person. Therefore, this campaign combines the informational boards with a Facebook check-in activity. As long as visitors check in on Facebook within these five animal zones, they’ll have a chance to attend a special preview screening of *Everybody Loves Animals*, gaining deeper insight into the meanings behind animal behaviors through the film’s humorous anthropomorphic portrayal of animals. In addition, those who join the animal adoption program will receive one *Everybody Loves Animals* special preview screening ticket directly.
