This photo from the World Wildlife Fund is a part of a series of similar photos. In these other photos the bluefin tuna is wearing rhinoceros and gorilla masks. For some reason these pandas and other creatures are the “mainstream” endangered animals. People seem to care more about these animals even though the bluefin tuna is actually in more danger. But, why? Is it because they are cuter? Nicer? More known? This photo makes me angry. Not only are we the reason that these animals are going extinct

animals. In the present, I want to be a large animal veterinarian. Contrary to a regular veterinarian, a large animal veterinarian is a veterinarian for larger animals. Large animal veterinarians work with animals such as lions, bears, elephants, and rhinoceroses. But due to the size and aggression of these animals, this can prove to be a very dangerous job because many veterinarians have gotten injured in their work.
