'Today' host Natalie Morales spent a day at Popcorn Park Zoo recently.  She spent time with veterinarians and staff, getting a taste of what life would have been like had she chosen to work with animals.  The segment "If I Weren't On TV..." aired on yesterday's show.  Morales has loved animals since she was a little girl and thought she might want to work as a vet.  Though she ultimately chose a different career path, her love and concern for animals comes through in this segment.  It's a feel-good piece which highlights the great work done by everyone at Popcorn Park.

Some of my favorite memories and photos are from visits to Popcorn Park Zoo. Remember Sonny The Elephant?  And now with all the animal adoptions arranged through Associated Humane Societies, Popcorn Park is a place that truly deserves attention and praise.    I'm glad the national spotlight got to shine on one of our Ocean County treasures.

Here is the video segment.
