The animal I choose from the zoo, would be a snow leopard. I would choose a snow leopard because it is fury and soft, plus it is cute . So, if it was the size of a puppy, I would train it to obey me and to obey other people. Snow Leopards are white with gray spots. You can find them in the snow, or in the mountains. If I had this animal to be my pet ,I would let it sleep in my room. I would care for it and feed it twice a day, and give her treats. I would name her Snowball.

If I were to l choose an animal to be puppy sized i would want a monkey because it would be fun to watch it cling all throw the home. It would be fun to watch it swing through the trees in are bake yard. I would want to see how the monkey would play with are other animals. I think that it would be fun to see a monkey living in a home so that's why i chose a monkey.

If I had a zoo animal that’s the size of a puppy……
Well that will be easy it would be a Tortoise because of the shell on it can be well protected and it can live up to 80 to 120 years, which I mean that’s a lot of years. Tortoises are kinda the size of a puppy and the reason why I want one is how it can just sit on my lap and watch tv with it
(and also so I can name it Phil because if I had a tortoise I'd name it Phil).
I can teach it to play video games and watch the Phil eating food slowly on his lettuce :)
This is why I had a tortoise.

I would pick a gorilla because it would be so funny to see a tiny gorilla and it would be really fun to play with a tiny gorilla. It would be weird because if your friends ask you what kind of pet you have you would have to say “oh I have a tiny gorilla,” and it probably would climb all over you and eat a lot. Well every day when I wake up I would most likely have to play with it because it just woke up and has a lot of energy. Then feed it and then it will probably be tired again so it would go to sleep then wake up and have tons of energy and be really annoying so I feed it. Then it is time for dinner so I feed it AGAIN and then we go to sleep. That is what animal I would pick from the zoo to be pet sized.

I would choose a tiger because i could train it to become a guard at my house and it would not bite me because i would train it. I could also train it to not have anyone go in my room. It would probably be really soft so i could pet it. Thats what I would pick for a zoo animal.

If I could have a puppy size animal it would be a bat. Bat’s are already small so he/she would have to stay the same size hopefully. I really hope that there is a puppy that small. Anyways, I would feed it milk, and not turn on the ceiling fan! There are probably not going to have any problems. I think it would be really cute. I also LOVE baby bats.

If I could have any puppy sized animals from the zoo it would be a crocodile. I could bring it to the pool and teach it tricks. The crocodile also could teach me about how crocodiles live and hunt. Being puppy sized would be hard for a crocodile because they're not as big or as aggressive. They would have to be protected. Also being puppy sized would be easy for a crocodile because it could catch smaller animals. They could eat things such as lizards, toads, frogs, nonpoisonous snakes, and fish. Living with a puppy sized crocodile would be hard because it will bite and hit me with its tail. The good thing about having it as a pet would be I could feed it without getting bit. I will also swim with it while playing with the crocodile. That's why I want a crocodile for a pet.

If I had to have one zoo animal I would choose a cheetah, because I could teach it tricks and it would super cute if it was shrunk to the size of a puppy. A cheetah is a cat thats a tan color with brownish black spots, and they can be found in the african savanna. He would also be a boy. If he were the size of a puppy he could fit in my bunk and sleep with me. I would also train him to obey me and not maul other people too. I would always make sure he would get fed enough fresh meat. It has to be fresh, because cheetah’s are super picky they won’t eat meat that’s even one hour old. I would also play with him outside and go on lots of runs with him because cheetahs need lots of exercise. I would name him Juba after it’s scientific name Acinonyx jubatus. I also think a cheetah the size of a puppy would just be super cute.

The animal I would choose would be an elephant. I have always loved elephants. I even did a report on them in the third grade. I know a lot about them and how they cooperate with people. I also would like people to stop killing elephants for their tusks. If I could have an elephant the size of a tiny puppy I would train it to obey me and not be rude to other people. Elephants can be really loud and noisy at times but I would be okay with that. But at night I may want my beauty sleep. They do eat a lot so I would probably need a garden because they can eat up to 200-600 pounds a day.I’m sure my little elephant would eat a lot but not that much. I have loved elephants for such a long time, I think they are the cutest animal ever. A lot of people think they are ugly because they are big and fat. Over all I think they would be really fun to play with and just to take care of. Owning one would be amazing. If I could get a puppy sized elephant and it would stay that size I would keep if for a long time. I mean who doesn't like elephants?

What zoo animal would I want if I could shrink/enlarge to the size of a dog? I think I would choose a Peregrine Falcon, I would name it Silver Wing because it sounds cool.
Here is what I would do with my new pet:
Fly around on it
Feed it treats
Play games and Video games
I think this is one of the coolest pets to have because I can fly on it, and I can play fun games.
Every morning I would wake up feed it play with it outside then fly on it.
Here is a story of me with my new pet

A Silver Winged Story
One morning I wake up walk outside to let out the animals before school that's when I saw the giant Peregrine Falcon I walk Inside to grab some grapes for it i turn to look out the window and it's on the porch staring through the glass I feed it the grapes and it wants more so i get it more that's when I knew that if I was able to keep it i would name it Silver Wing...

2 Years Later, California
I wake up and let out all of the animals,then I jump onto Silver Wing and fly up over paradise zooming into magalia and over newly built buildings,
After an hour I came back home to get ready for school and fly to school.

If I could have a puppy size zoo animals it would be penguin because they would look so adorable when they walk. You can also put them in a small refrigerator to keep them cool instead of having them die because of het. You could make a pool out of a small bowl. You can give them small ice cubes to chew on. They can live in my bathtub and we can swim in my swimming pool. We can also go hiking together. We could also share are bed (so the penguin does not have bad dreams).

If I could have a puppy-sized zoo animal as a pet, I think I would have a giraffe named Spot. I decided on a giraffe because every time I saw Spot, I would burst out laughing because of how his neck looked, and I have always liked giraffes.

I would feed him acacia. Giraffes don't sleep much, but I would give him a special area with warm bedding and where he could comfortably stand. I would have to pick everything up, because the giraffes I've met like to touch everything with their mouths.

We would go on long road trips together, and he would stick his head out the sunroof, with his long purple tongue hanging out. I would take him for walks every day, and people would be so surprised to see a little giraffe. I might not play fetch with Spot, but he would be great at catching frisbees.

Having a giraffe for a pet would be so awesome! Out of all the zoo animals I could have puppy- sized as a pet, I think a giraffe, especially one named Spot, would be the best.

If I could pick any pet from the zoo, I would pick a sea lion. I would probably name it Teddy or something. It would keep me company by doing tricks and interacting with me. The reason I want a sea lion is because over the summer, we went to an aquarium and there was a show where all the sea lions did tricks. It was so cool that they interacted and obeyed the ladies commands. So if any are for sale, I’ll be there.

I picked a baby bear because I thought that it would be a fun and exciting animal to have. I also picked a baby bear because I thought it could be a cute animal. It is a crazy and a wild experience . We hang out every day at the apple trees to pick the apples. One day we were getting ice cream and then I lost him but then I found him in the mint chip ice cream. That's why I picked a baby bear.

If I had to pick a zoo animal to be a pet of mine that was puppy sized, I would pick an elephant because they are cute. The struggles would be that it is very loud at night but you’d eventually get used to it and not notice. Guests at night could get earplugs and it would all work out fine. Elephants are very big but a small one is perfect for the house. Another problem with having an elephant is that it breaks everything with their tusks so what I’d do is I’d nail everything down to the floor and then nothing would even shake if my elephant ran into it.. My elephant “Bella” personally I think is perfect. She never makes noises in the night and never hits anything with her tusks but I don’t take any risks and nail things to the floor anyway. I would obviously love to have an elephant as a house pet. They are the best house pets ever!

If I had to pick a pet out of a zoo and it was pocket sized. I would choose a panda. I would pick a panda because one there so fluffy and it Would keep me warm at night and during the winter. I would have to make a bamboo farm but that's easy to do. I would train him to not run away and not go potty in the house. I could teach him how to bounce on my trampoline. Also i could teach him sign language. As you can see a panda would be the best mini pet for me.

If I could have any zoo animal the size of a puppy I would have a chameleon because I love reptiles and I’ve always wanted one. Some things that would be hard is trying to find a cage for it with all the supplies it needs like a heat lamp some branches and food chameleon eat crickets and insects it would be hard to get many crickets for it to eat. If I had to try and find it they blend in so well. Some things that would be good is i would have a giant chameleon and I could brag too my friends.

I would like to have a pet lion because it would be cool to have one I can play around like with his beard It would be hard though because Lions have those big nails and you would be scratching me a lot it would be fun to play with it he'll probably have them outside most of the time because inside he would probably scratch all the walls It would be funny because if someone ever tries to rob me The Lion can scare him or her away That I would protect my family I hope but it would be like really fun to have a lion it would probably make a disaster in your house I would have to give him lots of me everyday that's going to make me go broke oh yeah but it's fine and that is why I would pick a pet lion

The zoo animal I would choose would be a Gray Wolf, I would choose this animal because if a full grown Gray wolf in a size of a puppy would be extremely fluffy and cute. Gray wolves can run up to 37 mph when running and that would be extremely cool. A Gray Wolf in the size of a puppy would be like an exotic small dog and he or she could be like my little companion that helps with everything, Guarding, getting boxes for me etc. There are also people who own hybrids of wolves which is a wolf and another type of dog combined. That is my reasoning to owning a wolf and that is my paragraph, I hope whoever is reading this has a good day or night.

I would choose a black bear because they look cuddly and fun to play with. I chose a bear because they remind me of my dog jack and how goofy he can be. My dog jack is 11 months and is about to 1, he turns one in October on the 8th. I think a bear would remind me of him because dears can be funny for example there is a zoo a little outside Orville called the Barry Christner. There are brown bears there, and black bears that play around

If I could choose any zoo animal and turn it into a puppy sized pet I would choose a lion. Why I would have a lion is because I think it would be cool to tame a lion even if it was only a puppy sized pet. Lions are very fierce animals so it would be able to protect me and my family. If I had a lion I would play with It teach it tricks and take it out for walks. I would also try to see if I was faster than it so we would race. So as you can see, I think that having a puppy sized lion would be amazing.

If I could have any puppy sized zoo animal I would definitely choose an elephant because big elephants are cute so a puppy sized one would be ADORABLE. This is what my life with a puppy sized elephant would be like : (I would name it Harry)

I wake up to my little elephant smacking me with its trunk. I can tell he wants me to feed him, so I get out of bed put on my slippers on and head to the kitchen. I grab the apples out of the fridge and grab some fresh grass from my grass basket. I put it in the blender for just a second so that it isn't so hard to eat. I pour the gross stuff into his cute blue bowl and he gobbles it up immediately and I laugh because he sounds like a pig when he eats. I eat and get ready while Harry watches T.V. I grab his leash and collar and I tell him it's time to go for a walk, he goes crazy because he loves walks so much. When we get home I play with him in the backyard for a while. He as a kiddie pool that he absolutely loves. He is playing in the water when he sprays water all over me, I can't be mad because he is an elephant but I make him come inside to eat dinner and we watch our favorite show.

If I could have a puppy size animal from the zoo I would pick panda because it is my favorite animal. Also they can live fifteen-twenty years so I would have it for a long time. It would almost be like life with a puppy but having to feed it special food. I think the struggle would be they spend twelve hours each day eating bamboo each day which means, I would not have a lot of time to play with it. In September 2019 International Union for Conservation of Nature announced that pandas have been changed from endangered to vulnerable, since it's not endangered it would be more safe to have compared to an endangered species. I think the easiest part would be not having to play with it since I go to school for six hours every day and it spends half the day eating. I would keep my panda in my room because if it was puppy size it would be small so it could sleep at the end of my bed like a dog.

If I had a puppy sized pet I would choose a kangaroo I would choose kangaroo because that is one of my favorite animals it be fun to play with.

I think it would be fun to play with because it would hop around and they’re very active I can train it how to play fetch or play games. The games I would teach it would be baseball because it would go super fast around the bases.

They are my favorite animal because they jump very high and they are cool looking and they only live in Australia. Another reason I like them is that they have a pouch to carry their babies in they also have a long tail that keeps them balanced when they jump

Now you can see why kangaroos are my favorite animal and I would pick them to be a puppy sized animal.

I would pick a red panda because red pandas are one of my favorite animals and there super cute. I like red pandas because there really unique with their red orange colored fur, long lemur like tail, and raccoon/bear like body.

I would name it Bruce if it was a boy and Zatanna if it was a girl. The struggles with having a red panda would be trying to bamboo to feed it and trying to get it down from high places like my ceiling fan or the top of my closet. Another hard thing is finding it a place to sleep, eat, and go to the bathroom. I can’t just bring a tree into my house ...Well ...unless it was a cat tree. It would probably be a good idea to build a cage with a door for humans and tunnels for the red panda all over the house to get into the cage. I would put a tree in the cage and put the cage outside.

That’s why I would choose a red panda for my puppy-sized pet.

bear that is alive and can actually walk and move around.It would be fun but also challenging to have a puppy sized baer as a pet. One of the challenges you might have might be teaching it not to bite or scratch you,the walls, and furniture. Another thing that might be challenging is teaching it not to run away or teaching it how to behave in public and how to go on walks.One of the finale challenges is getting its right food enough water and being able to go to a place that actually has that type of food.There would also be a lot of fun and cool things about having a puppy sized bear. Like having something that can be your companion that is pretty much easier to take care of than a dog or being able to have something to play with that's not just a stuffed animal and that won't hurt you. Some other things t If I got to pick any zoo animal as the size of a puppy to keep for a pet. It would be a bear. I would choose a bear because you usually can't pet a bear and they look so soft and would be fun to cuddle or play with. Another reason why I would pick a bear is that it would be like having a teddyhat would be cool about having a bear would be that you could take it on walks and play with it outside and other things like that.
My daily life with a bear would be challenging. Some things that might be challenging would be finding a trainer to train him. I would have to find someone to take care of him when im gone and someone to take him on walks when i'm gone. Some things that would be cool to have a bear in my daily life would be waking up with a tiny sleeping bear next to me.Playing with it all the time the time and taking it on walks. Also coming home from school everyday to a cute puppy sized bear waiting for you. That's why I would pick a puppy sized bear for my pet.

If I could have any zoo animal turn into the size of a puppy I would choose a sloth. I would choose a sloth because it would be fun to cuddle with it and because I would like to see how it would interact with other animals. It would also be a really cute puppy sized animal. I would like to have a sloth as a pet because it would be fun to to fall asleep with it and play with it. One reason I wouldn’t like to have a sloth as a pet would be because it would scratch me with it’s really long nails. Another reason I wouldn’t like to have a pet sloth because it’s a slow animal and if it was in danger something might happen to it.

If I could have a puppy sized zoo animal I would have an Okapi. An okapi is a cross between a zebra and an antelope or deer I think. I love okapis because I have a stuffed okapi at my house that I had when growing up I loved it so much.I think I would love a puppy sized okapi because it’s an exotic animal, plus okapis are cute.And okapis aren’t clawed so they won’t scratch me, others,and my couch.A kind hearted animal would be a great addition to my friends. Okapis are my favorite animals so would love to have a lovely,amazing, exotic puppy sized animal!
