In a zoo, not only endurance is important, but also accuracy. In particular, this concerns the amount of food distributed to animals. In order not to overfeed the pets, they are pre-weighed to determine the daily intake of nutrients. And they do it in a very original way.
They put the leopard in a plastic bucket so that it doesn't run away. The main thing is to feed the baby well before this, otherwise it will gnaw both the scales and the fingers of the zoo workers.
The giraffe does not like to be weighed. Or maybe not. And the menagerie workers have no time to wait three days until it comes to him why he needs to stand on this particular stand. So you have to take the animal in your arms.
For insects, there are special, hypersensitive scales.
Exactly the same as for camels. Although for the inhabitants of the desert, the main thing is that the scales are large and durable. It's no joke to wear two humps and four hooves.
The tiger is certainly smaller in size than the camel, but how can you approach it? So you have to find out the parameters by eye, drawing a plate on the wall of the aviary.
The snake is also a dangerous creature, but, nevertheless, it willingly allows itself to be stroked and weighed.
But for frogs (especially small ones) there are special scales.
Whereas a toad can calmly weigh itself on an ordinary kitchen scale. The main thing is to drive her out of there later.
But if the toad does not want to get off the scales because of banal laziness, then animal curiosity attracts penguins to the miracle technology. And all the penguins at once. Therefore, the difficulty here is not in driving the pet onto the scales, but in not letting in his fellows there, who also really want to know their weight.
The most obedient animals on the weighing are monkeys. They will sit in the right position, and get off the scales on time, and will also thank the zoo worker in a peculiar form. Moreover, monkeys are friends not only with people, but also with many inhabitants of the zoo, starting with birds and ending with little tiger cubs.
