Zoos were a great and fascinating way to spend his weekend learning about animals. He found out that near his house was a new animal shelter, Wild Paws Shelter. At a regular shelter, you could adopt dogs, cats and even an occasional pot-bellied pig or goat, but at this shelter there were lions, tigers and bears. 2 On arrival, he and his family could hear the lions roar from the parking lot. Tobey immediately noticed the differences between this place and a zoo. Zoos had beautiful habitats set up for each animal, but you could not get near the animals. At this shelter, he was almost close enough to touch the animals. The paths were covered with trees which made the animals feel more at home. 3 It was interesting to stare a lion in the eyes from such a close distance. Tobey reached out to touch a little lion cub, when suddenly, a lioness pounced against the cage. He turned away as quick as lightning, then watched the bears pace back and forth, while the leopards lazed in the midday heat and the monkeys groomed themselves. 4 The best part about the place was the stories. Each animal had a story posted up on the side of their cage. Each one of them had been rescued from abuse or taken when they were no longer wanted. Someone at this shelter had stepped up to take care of the animals and now Tobey could enjoy learning about them. ### Page 3 3 5 When it was finally time to go, they thanked the volunteers and made a donation. Shelters always needed money and food for the animals. It made Tobey and his family feel good to help out. It was a great place to be and Tobey couldn’t wait to return.
