After the video went viral and amused scores on social media, Revilla took it sportingly and to his Facebook page to remind us of another popular meme. He posted a photo of himself from the video and a still from popular American sitcom The Simpson, where the main protagonist Homer Simpson is seen with an ostrich. He wrote in the caption of the post, “The Simpsons had already predicted it.”
As Spain is slowly easing its restrictions that were imposed due to the Coronavirus outbreak, Revilla said in the press conference that reopening the zoo is one of the steps toward reopening the economy.
