New Child-Friendly Website on Animal Health
Denver, CO (USA), May 2011 - The new website launched by the Morris Animal Foundation features dogs, cats, horses, llamas, and lots of wildlife species - and the scientists who are working to keep them healthy.
Kids can take a quiz, see photos of scientists in action, and download wallpaper for their computers. The site is geared toward second to sixth graders, as the average age a person decides to become a veterinarian is nine.
The Morris Animal Foundation was started in 1948 by Dr. Mark Morris Sr., a veterinarian who loved animals so much that he started a foundation where veterinarians could study ways to help prevent, treat, and cure animal illnesses.
His son, Dr. Mark Morris Jr., was also a veterinarian, and he helped grow Morris Animal Foundation into a world leader in animal health. Today, Mark Sr.'s great-granddaughter, Liza Morris, is continuing her family's tradition into the fourth generation. Liza's dream is to be a wildlife veterinarian.
Kids of all ages are encouraged to visit the website. If they have a great story, photo, or video about a favorite animal or pet, they can email to become a featured MAF Kid.
