We post a lot of photo galleries of the National Zoo’s cutest animals here at DCist, but that does not mean we’re biased against the Zoo’s less-cute critters. No, not at all. While you were out celebrating Christmas with friends and family yesterday (or, eating Chinese food and going to the movies, or whatever), the invertebrate exhibit at the National Zoo was also getting into the Christmas spirit.

Don’t believe me? Well, just look at the gallery of the invertebrate exhibit’s holiday-themed photo shoot from yesterday. Adorable!
