Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce's Cute Date Turns Sour Over Zoo Visit – Here's Why

The recent outing to an Australian zoo by Taylor Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce has sparked fury among animal rights activists.

PETA encourages the A-list celebrity couple to consider supporting genuine sanctuaries for wild animals during their future explorations.

According to Debbie Metzler, Director of Captive, who spoke to TMZ, "While we understand all too well the appeal of seeing Australia's wildlife, PETA hopes that next time Taylor and Travis want to see wild animals, they'll spend their time and money at a true sanctuary,"

The "Cruel Summer" hitmaker enjoyed a day of adventure at the Sydney Zoo following Travis's arrival to join his girlfriend on her "Eras" Tour.

As of the time of the statement's release, there has been no response from PETA regarding the pair's outing.

During their visit, Channel 9 from Australian TV documented the couple's intimate encounter with a kangaroo, one of Australia's beloved creatures. Taylor Swift was spotted hand-feeding one kangaroo while Travis Kelce tenderly petted another.

The couple was also spotted strolling hand in hand, exploring a variety of wildlife exhibits, such as the adorable koalas, with a palpable sense of togetherness.

Accompanying the lovebirds on their journey through Oz was Taylor's tourmate, Sabrina Carpenter, and Travis' Kansas City Chief's teammate, Ross Travis, as they explored the after-hours zoo.

The "Anti-Hero" singer also visited the zoo for the second time during her stay in Australia.

As reported by news.com.au on February 21, she was accompanied by a group of dancers from her Eras Tour on this particular visit.
