The pros are something new everyday, meeting and helping new animals. and doing somethig i love.
Cons: losing a animal.
I love how I get to do the two things I love, working in the lab, (which includes solving mysteries and helping animals) and working with my hands and still being able to come in contact with the Wildlife.
