Posted on social media was a picture of an Ezo tanuki stretching its tiny legs out straight, clinging desperately to a burlap sack. Many people have been charmed by the sight of its small body stretched out to the fullest, using the sack like a blanket and looking as if it has become one with it.

Active, Eating, and Then... Naptime! Meet Yuki-chan from Maruyama Zoo

This is the usually energetic Ezo tanuki, Yuki-chan. Here's a full-body view.

This Ezo tanuki is Yuki-chan from Maruyama Zoo. According to Shio-san, who took the photo, just before this scene, a zookeeper was giving a talk about the Ezo tanuki, and Yuki-chan was actively moving around, searching for and eating food. This was her nap right after, so she must have been sleeping very comfortably...

Yuki-chan's incredibly cute sleeping face.

Tucking in her outstretched legs and continuing to sleep soundly.

She usually lives with her partner, Riku-kun.

Yuki-chan the Ezo tanuki lives in the Kangaroo House at Maruyama Zoo. Why not stop by and take a look on your next outing? You might be able to witness her energetic side or see her sleeping soundly.
