CAREER OF THE DAY:

Pet Detective:Pet detectives help pet owners find their runaway or missing animals. Often, a pet will escape from their home, start exploring their surroundings and get so lost that they can’t find their way back home. A pet detective can be called on to offer suggestions to the owner, or to do the actual investigation and search by using various technical methods. Pet detectives may check local shelters, hang up posters, speak with neighbors and use scent sniffing dogs. Some detectives will use binoculars, infrared vision equipment (for night searches), DNA testing, video monitoring and highly sensitive audio equipment that can pick up sounds from a large area.  

CHALLENGE OF THE DAY:
