Dylan Dreyer kickstarted her weekend with a bang on Saturday as she delivered an update which excited her 785K Instagram followers.

The Today host took to social media to share a sneak peek at some new episodes from her show Earth Odyssey and her followers agree that they look amazing. 

In the video, which can be seen below, Dylan says she gets "up close and personal with some of the weirdest and wildest animals on the planet," as she's seen feeding and cuddling an array of furry friends from giraffes to sloths and more.

Earlier this year, she gave viewers another behind-the-scenes glimpse of what they can expect from the new episodes - and it certainly looks like plenty of fun.

"I've had quite the day filming @nbcearthodyssey," she wrote on the post from April. "I’ve been kissed by binturong, photobombed by a giraffe, fed a tamandua, held a parakeet, and met a baby sloth. You’re not going to want to miss these episodes … airing in June on @nbc @themoreyouknow (not shown: big wet fishy kiss from a 500 lb grey seal)."
