The Brookfield Zoo in suburban Chicago, Illinois, marked International Bath Day on June 14 by sharing footage of three animals getting blissfully soaked and cleaned.

Video shared with Storyful via a zoo press release shows animals from South America, Australia, and Africa being hosed down.

“Lupito, an 8-year-old anteater, celebrated with a hose spraying from animal care staff as well as rolling around in a tub of water,” wrote the zoo. “Echo, a 6-year-old emu, and Layla, a 10-year-old black rhinoceros, also were treated to refreshing sprays of water.” Credit: Lynette Kleisner/CZS-Brookfield Zoo via Storyful
