They care for animals in their areas. Less and her team develop training projects for new animals. Training animals is not what a zoo visitor might think. “We don’t train them to perform,” she explained. “We train them to get vaccines (疫苗), blood pressure, and things that are good for their health.” Less also takes part in special projects, including making a forest at the zoo. The happiest part of her job is to spend time with the animals. “Every morning, I can’t wait to see them,” she said. Zoos have changed a lot over the past few years, but doing good for animals has stayed the same. They now work on animal health research and the protection of wildlife. She hopes that such work will remind zoo visitors to protect animals, especially those in danger of extinction. If we don’t take action now, we may not see them again on Earth one day. “A lot of animals are living a hard life in the wild,” Less said. “We’re getting people to care about what’s happening to our Earth and what’s happening to the wild places that are becoming smaller everywhere.” 24.
