It's hard not to panic when we're stuck inside reading news about the COVID-19 pandemic all day.

But the San Antonio Zoo is here with a cure.

To stay connected with the public while its doors are closed — and help us calm the fuck down while they're at it — the zoo has launched a new media page featuring live feeds of resident animals, educational videos and even zoo yoga.

Currently, the page has two live animal cams: a calming look at floating moon jellyfish — which can also be viewed on Twitch — and a "kangaroo cam" featuring the zoo's two Matschie's tree kangaroos, Omeo and Libby.

Watch live video from san_antonio_zoo on www.twitch.tv
For anyone hungering for fresh content, the zoo will livestream new videos on Facebook Mondays through Fridays: Animal Chats at 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. and Zen Zoo yoga at 10:30 a.m.
