Haruka, Ichika, thanks for waiting!

Sorry about making you two wait until our shadowing was finished.

That's okay. We haven't been waiting long.

We got to see some cool things while we did, too.

Thank goodness!

Then, what should we do now?

Anywhere you guys wanna go?

Not in particular...

Actually, do you have any recommendations as zookeepers for the day?

Hmm... I'd recommend...

No, I can't choose! Any ideas, Shiho?!

I think we should go to the petting zoo.

The petting zoo?

Oh, that did sound like fun.

It looked like you could meet a lot of different animals.

Yeah, Shiho, that sounds like a place you'd really love.

Not that much...

Then, let's check it out.

I'm looking forward to seeing what animals they have there.

Alright, let's go!

Uhh... I think it was...

This way. Follow me.

Oh, you already know the way...?

Whoa, they have capibaras and guinea pigs here!

And they're in the same pen.

It's interesting how that doesn't really bother them.

They seem really relaxed.

They kinda look like a big family since they have similar appearances!

We're really allowed to pet these guinea pigs?

It is a petting zoo, so it should be fine, right?

Then... I'll try petting this one.

Come here.

Wow, they aren't resisting at all...

They must be used to being around people.

They're so cute... I might try holding one too. But what other animals do they have here?

Let's see. Besides guinea pigs and capibaras...

They have rabbits, alpacas and goats.

Alpacas?

At a petting zoo? Aren't they pretty big?

Yeah, I think they're over there.

We have to pay to get in, but we'd get to feed them!

Really? Then, it might be worth a visit.

I really wanna go...but I think I'll stay here a little longer.

Wait, why?

Because this one just fell asleep.

Oh, wow... It's sleeping like a baby.

Go on ahead. I'll stay right here.

Are you sure?

You might not be able to move for a while if you're going to wait for it to wake up.

Then... I'll wait.

Hehe. Alright, we'll head on over.

Okay. I'll catch up once it wakes back up.

Sounds good. Then, where should we start?

So, based on this pamphlet, they have lop-eared rabbits here!

What?

Lop-eared? As in the ones with ears that hang down? They're probably really cute.

Lop-eared rabbits...

Are you interested, Hinomori?

Would you like to come with us after all?

No, I don't want to betray my little friend's trust by waking it up.

I'm not sure “betray” is the right word...
