Prince Hisahito encounters cute animals
Prince Hisahito, the grandson of Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko, visited Ueno Zoo for a photo op with some cute animals:
The prince spent time petting and handling rabbits and guinea pigs and caring for Tokara goats at the Children’s Zoo.
When he encountered a rabbit, he asked staff how to hold it. He also moved guinea pigs from a raised platform onto the floor, where he crouched down to pet them
