Animal videos are the most watched and loved videos on the internet as they brighten our day and fill us with joy. One such adorable video of a raccoon imitating a woman's dance moves has resurfaced on the internet. However, the video has drawn mixed reactions from internet users and sparked a debate about animal cruelty.

The video shows a raccoon from inside its zoo enclosure, mimicking a woman's dance moves perfectly while she pretends to rap. The video was shared on Twitter by a user named Morissa Schwartz which has amassed more than 12 lakh views, 51,000 likes and more than 1,000 retweets.

''Cool moves,'' reads the caption of the post shared on April 19.

Watch the video here:

While some users were left amused, others felt that the animal's dance was actually caused by psychosis due to being kept in captivity. 

One user wrote, ''He seems chill enough to hang out with.'' Another said, ''Yes, cool moves, but it shouldn't be in a zoo. Anyways, loved it.''

Some termed it as an example of 'Zoochosis', a psychological disorder that can develop in captive animals.

A third wrote, ''This move is due to his confinement... and it's not fun.'' A fourth added, ''They should give me a job called “the worst person on Earth” where I debunk cute animals videos as abnormal behavior signs of abuse and captivity. I mean do you actually think raccoons can dance with you.'' 

A fifth stated, ''Repetitive movements caused by STRESS! It's not funny.'' A sixth commented, ''Not cool usually when animals feel trapped and scared they do these moves.'' 

Yet another added, ''Raccoon isn't having a dance party. He's having anxiety from being CAGED!!''

North Korea test-fired a new generation of strategic cruise missile on Wednesday. (Representational) Seoul: North Korea fired several cruise missiles towards the Yellow Sea on Wednesday, Seoul's military said, the latest in a series of tension-raising moves by the nuclear-armed state.

"Our military detected several cruise missiles launched by North Korea towards the Yellow Sea at around 7:00 am today," the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement. Unlike their ballistic counterparts, the testing of cruise missiles is not banned under current UN sanctions against Pyongyang. Cruise...

"Jaiswal Has Run Ahead Of Gill": Ex-India Star's Massive T20 WC Verdict

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal is slightly ahead of Shubman Gill in the pecking order as captain Rohit Sharma's partner at the top in T20Is. Since making his debut last year, Jaiswal has been in stunning form in the shortest format of the game. Gill's form, on the other hand, has dipped since the ODI World Cup last year in India. With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held later this year, Chopra feels Jaiswal will open the innings with Rohit during the tournament. "It's clear that Yashasvi Jaiswal has run ahead of Shubman Gill. Yashasvi is ahead in the two-horse race, Gill is lagging slightly behind. Gill was played in the first match, dropped in the second, and wasn't played in the third as well," Chopra said on his YouTube channel. Jaiswal helped India beat Afghanistan in the second T20I earlier this week, scoring a quickfire fifty. Considering his recent form across formats, Chopra emphasised that Jaiswal has ...
