Question

【題目】 Kids Camp at the Zoo

How do you feed bears and tigers? And what exactly do they like to eat, anyway? These were just a couple of the questions kids got a chance to ask at the Dakota Zoo in Bismarck, North Dakota.

About two dozens kids took part in the zoo’s first Junior Zookeeping Camp.【1】 “I like seeing the animals and seeing how the zookeepers take care of them,” said Christopher Brady, and eight-year-old kid.

A number of zoos across the country are holding camps for kids this summer. The kids are learning all about the animals.【2】That includes the cleaning of the waste from those animals. “It isn’t just petting animals or doing the easy stuff,” zookeeper Greg Schmit said. “It’s actually a lot of work.”

At the Brookfield Zoo near Chicago, Illinois, 9-year-old Elise McCormack learned that the best place to take a blood sample from a dolpin is from the tail. “【3】” She said.

And at the Hattiesburg Zoo in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, kids are learning all about the native habitats of the zoo’s animals—the lands where those animals originally came from. “I really like learning about the animals and getting to see and pet the animals. ” 10-year-old Susan Worley said.

【4】 “The reindeer are pretty cool,” 11-year-old Patrick Litton said. And some kids surprised themselves, for example, some kids got a chance to touch a corn snake.
