Zoos are giving animals Amazon-esque species ratings, and it’s honestly kind of great.
The trend started Friday with the Oregon Zoo in a tweet hashtagged #rateaspecies. Other animal conservancies got in on the fun – including aquariums – providing informative ratings for people looking to, er, buy the products.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Overall very good first impressions. Sturdy built, totally winter-ready and waterproof. Only comes in brown but that’s actually a plus for me. #rateaspecies pic.twitter.com/IK99ODsTPT— Oregon Zoo (@OregonZoo) March 9, 2018

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ A+ VINTAGE ROADSTER
Despite few major design updates since the Ice Age, a worthy investment for current and future aficionados. Oxygen-processing and sustained land speed unparalleled. Extremely rare, though hopefully not for long.#rateaspecies pic.twitter.com/Dqa0Gp7Q7m— Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens (@LAZoo) March 9, 2018
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ POUNCE ON THIS ONE
Started out small but got stretched out over time. Still, even after heavy use in all weather, very tough, very hardy. #rateaspecies pic.twitter.com/lPCLxIfCYi— Woodland Park Zoo (@woodlandparkzoo) March 9, 2018
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Pleasantly surprised. Thought I had ordered a Roomba, but this did an excellent job of cleaning up my ecosystem. Only downside is the projectile vomiting. Overall 5 stars, would drunkenly purchase again. #rateaspecies pic.twitter.com/5fDfHiaWNq
