The ancient practice of yoga is undoubtedly a human invention - but these furry creatures prove that animals can get in on the action, too.

瑜伽这项古老的运动无疑是人类的发明，但这些毛茸茸的生物证明了动物也能做这种锻炼。

Take a look as a bulldog, lemur, lion, sloth and even a polar bear give human yogis a run for their money.

看看斗牛犬、狐猴、狮子、树懒、甚至是北极熊都来跟人类瑜伽大师一较高下。

The resemblance between their poses and a few popular yoga poses - including the triangle, half lotus, plank and tree pose - is uncanny.

它们的姿势和一些流行的瑜伽姿势——包括三角式、半莲花单腿独立伸展式、平板支撑式和树式——有很多相似之处，真是令人难以置信。

And while the spiritual context may be lost on them, these flexible furries sure appreciate a good stretch.

虽然它们可能没有达到那种精神境界，但这些有弹性的毛茸茸的身体确实能好好放松一下。

This will get rid of that puppy fat: but this pooch doesn't seem too keen on keeping fit.

I'm not monkeying around: there's some serious stretching going on here.

我没有到处胡闹，我要在这儿认真地伸展身体。

Let's trance: a ring-tailed lemur meditates in the half lotus position.

Lion down on the job: even the king of the jungle needs to spend some time keeping trim.

Cool dude: if you're a polar bear, there's a danger of freezing solid in a yoga plank.

小伙真酷：如果你是一只北极熊，练习瑜伽的平板支撑式有被冻住的危险。

Meditation: it's otter concentration.

冥想：水獭集中注意力的方式。

Believe it or not, this position really is called the upward facing dog.

信不信由你，这个姿势真的叫“上犬式”。

That's why they call me Yoga Bear... because when it comes to exercise, I'm smarter than the average bear, Boo Boo.

这就是为什么他们叫我“瑜伽熊”……因为锻炼时我比普通的熊更灵活，吼吼。

Feline flexible: this one is easy for a puss.

猫科动物的弹性：这个对猫咪来说很容易。

Don't drop me, mum: a orangutan does the tree pose - and the baby comes, too
