Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium released a video on their Facebook page Friday, showing their employees and zoo animals dancing to the very popular #RunningManChallenge.

The video is set to the 1990s hit song "My Boo" by Ghost Town DJ's.

The challenge has been a huge viral hit as many celebrities, sports teams and law enforcement across the country have participated in it. 

Omaha Zoo officials said on Facebook that their colleagues at the Denver Zoo challenged them to do the #RunningManChallenge.

"All we have to say is Man, what a workout!," Omaha Zoo wrote on their Facebook post.

"From old school Running Man, to new school Running Man, to how our animals would Running Man, our "game was on" with all sorts of wild and out dance moves. Take it away, Teal!"

Now, Omaha Zoo officials are asking their fans to take the challenge.

They are encouraging the public to show off their dance moves and record a clip of them doing the challenge at their home or at the zoo itself.
