Zoo Camp Part 2

So today started off cleaning the animals cages.  Me and another group of boys got to clean out the stall of four sheep, It was a lot of work but we got the job done.  Then I had to shove a syringe and have half of my hand down a chickens throat just to give it medicine. [Now I get why my Mom had to sign a release form]  Then we went back to the classroom to see our three guest animals! They were a desert snake,gecko, and a lizard, I even got to pet a snake. Then I got to play with the hedgehog again!  Then we got to go to the animal hospital.  They had a lot of sick animals that were in quarantine.  Then we walked around the section of the zoo that has reptiles.  After that we did the afternoon round of cleaning the cages. After the cleaning the cages part we all walked to the primates part of the zoo. Last but not least after that I went home and was very tired.  Overall it was a fun day.
