Who's Looking After the Zoo?
How do you weigh a panda? Or check a sea lion's tooth? Or figure out why a llama is limping?  These are just some of the many tasks veterinarians, technicians, and animal keepers at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo are trained in. With full-color photos and lively, accessible text, this new title looks at the very busy “to do” list of zoo workers as they take care of their creatures large and small.
Gina Shaw is a writer and editor who has taught children's book writing at Hofstra University. She is the author of the Smithsonian books Curious About Orangutans, The Poop Sleuth, The Buzz on Insects, Curious About Snow, Curious About Zoo Vets, and Welcome, Bao Bao. View titles by Gina Shaw
