Question

   Her works of art sell like hotcakes (非常抢手)at the gift store. Her name is Mechi. Some people are even f comparing her to Picasso,a famous artist. But there is   one big difference between the famous Spanish artist  Picasso and Mechi ： Mechi is a 3500 pound rhinoceros  (犀牛）. She lives at the Mesker Park Zoo in Indiana.

  Three  years  ago,Mechi  came to the  zoo.  She  was   found in the wilds after her mother was killed by t hunters. The zoo keepers found Mechi shows great interest in painting,just like a monkey loves bananas,  So they encouraged her to paint.

  Mechi  paints with her lips rather than her feet or f hom(角). But she can create colorful works. Do you  know how zoo keepers train her? At first,zoo keepers I placed several pieces of banana,carrot and sweet potato I on the paper for Mechi to move around. Once she got  used to moving things with her lips,the keepers replaced I those things with paint.

  Now  the art is sold at  the zoo gift  shop  to  raise money for the zoo and other rhinoceros-related work.
