      Hi Eleanor,

      That sounds amazing! I’ve always been fascinated about the African wildlife, but I’ve never see it in the wild. I actually wanted to work at an elephant hospital in Africa, when I was younger. I had watched a TV program about elephants that had lost theirs legs because they had stepped on landmines and I just really wanted to help them.

      Many of the African animals are endangered and I think it is great that you want to study these animals, so we can learn more about them and prevent them from going extinct.
