The Oregon Zoo in Portland Oregon is holding a Beast Feast, so their animals can celebrate Thanksgiving as well!
The animals will be given some Thanksgiving treats, but they will have to work for them.
Monkeys will have to dive for their cranberries, while the rhinos will squash their pumpkins before chowing down.
Tigers will get a frozen dessert called bonesicles, which are livestock bones frozen in blocks of ice. The tigers play with the ice and dunk it in water in an attempt to get to the tasty bone.
There has also been some early Thanksgiving celebrations, such as at the Seattle Zoo! Their annual Turkey Toss involves raw turkeys being tossed to meat-eating predators like the lions, komodo dragons and snow leopards.
We sure are thankful that these animals get to enjoy the goodness of Thanksgiving too!!
