Zimbabwe's Rescued Wildlife Joins Jerusalema Dance Challenge

Columbus Mavhunga

   HARARE - The Jerusalema Dance Challenge, a South African internet
   craze, is sweeping the African continent.

   As the Jerusalema spreads across Africa, in Zimbabwe, the wildlife is
   joining in. Staff at Zimbabwe's Wild is Life sanctuary for rescued
   wildlife have seen their online dance video with elephants, giraffes
   and other animals go viral.

   The song "Jerusalema," by South African DJ and record producer Master
   KG and vocalist Nomcebo, went viral during the coronavirus lockdown.

   Dancers, both professional and amateur, began posting their
   performances to the song online -- including with some wildlife. Roxy
   Danckwerts, the founder of Wild is Life, saidthey used their phones to
   record the video.
