And this mascot's aim is to help the animal park's visitors get a little kick out of maintaining social distancing. The park, which reopened on Saturday in Orange County, has a video on YouTube introducing Social Distancing Skunk Ape (his full, proper name). Next, she awkwardly but endearingly introduces the "king of keeping away from each other, the Social Distancing Skunk Ape." So, while everything is working in the background to keep people safe, the Social Distancing Skunk Ape is fulfilling our mission of creating fun," he said. Those include limits of the number of people allowed in, social distancing signs and ground markers and lots of hand sanitizing stations.
