This late night kiwi dance party video is the cutest thing we’ve ever seen

Get ready for your daily dose of cute. That’s not an overstatement by any means by the way. The video you are about to see is loaded with cuteness! A small kiwi bird appears on night-vision camera footage running around, falling over and seemingly dancing a beat none of us can hear. And if you thought puppy videos online are cute, you have never seen a kiwi dance.

This little creature is a kiwi. It’s a flightless, native to New Zealand bird, that looks like a hairy avocado with feet and a beak. It’s given us hours of pleasure watching it be adorable like in the above image. Lucky for us a sanctuary’s head ranger Kelly Gough shared a video of one such creature playing around in front of a camera. Since they are nocturnal by nature, catching sight of one is pretty rare. Especially one that appears to be happy and dancing around. Try not to crack a smile watching the video below:

If you want to get a closer look in person, check your local listings for a zoo or habitat that might carry them. Since these are pretty rare creatures you might have to settle for the videos online.
