More Than a Zoo

  Popcorn Park is not like most zoos.It is a very special place.Workers at the zoo care for hurt or sick animals.They return some of these animals to their natural homes.Those animals that cannot live on their own stay at Popcorn Park Zoo.

  At first this unusual place was not a zoo.It was called the Forked River Animal Care Center.The workers there took care of lost or unwanted cats and dogs.

  The change to the center began in 1977 when a raccoon needed help.The workers cared for the animal.Finally it was better, but it could not care for itself.The raccoon was allowed to live at the center.

  Once people heard about the wonderful work being done at the center, they began taking all kinds of hurt or homeless animals there.Soon the center was no longer just a home for cats and dogs.So many animals were living at the center that it became more like a zoo.It was time for a new name.

  Popcorn Park Zoo got its funny name because many of the animals there like to eat popcorn(爆米花)made without oil or salt.Also the popcorn is sold at the zoo to help make money to care for the animals.People buy the popcorn to feed the animals as a treat.

tricked(欺騙) by the advertisements on the Internet. Something is said to be a bargain, but it isn't
always cheap. And some so-called new things just have a new outside.

I can choose my favorite one,  and look for what the users like or don't like about it,  then decide
whether to buy or not.  And at the same time,  you don't have to go to a shop or walk around a
