Why I Decided to be a Vet I think it is interesting because animals are different from people which makes them interesting. I also think that animals should also have treatments for their diseases and injuries.

Why Vets are Important Vets are important because without them most animals would die if they got hurt. They are also important because when an animal dies, their owners can get very depressed.
