$\huge\text{\underline{"The\:Vet"}}$


The central idea is, the vet means a veterinary doctor.

If we go to the doctor, we can talk to them.

But in the case of animals, they cannot, so the doctor has to study deeply.

Answer 2

The poem 'The Vet' is written by the poet Guy Boas. The poet says that there are many species of animals in the planet and we do not know about many of them. To be a successful and competent veterinary doctor, one must have wide knowledge about the animals because each patient will suffer from different diseases.

The vet must know why the cat is not drinking milk, why the dog is not eating bone, why the horse's coat is not shining like silk, why the parrot only cries, why the ducks and chickens are not laying eggs, why are the canary birds faintly crying.

If the vet is ever called to a zoo to examine the animals, he must say many things. He must say that the lions have caught a cold, the zebras are getting old, the centipede is having trouble in his feet, the hippopotamuses are getting ill, the bisons are getting chill, the Arctic fox is suffering from heat, the chimpanzees are suffering from some unknown disease, the tortoises have not moved in years. It is the job of the vet to make everything right.
