Question

Popcorn Park is a very special place. Workers at the zoo care for hurt or sick（生病的）animals. 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 began in 1977 when a raccoon (浣熊) needed help. The workers cared for the animal. Finally it was better, but it could not care for itself. So people had to allow the raccoon to live at the center. After that, people began taking all kinds of hurt or homeless animals there. 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. Also workers at the zoo sell the popcorn to care for the animals. People buy the popcorn to feed the animals as well. Popcorn Park Zoo now takes care of more than 200 kinds of animals. All the animals at the zoo get lots of care and love.
