    Mary is an African elephant. Now she is 16 years old. She lives in the zoo. Mary has produced more than 50 draw?ings since last year. She has made over $2,500 for the zoo. Zoo leaders say Mary first showed the art ability about 4 years ago. Zoo workers watched her make the marks in the sand with her trunk (象鼻). She rubbed out (抹去) the marks,then made new ones. The zoo workers gave her bru?shes and paints. Soon Mary was drawing pictures. Newspaper reporters wrote about Mary,and then people went to buy her pictures. And in this way she made a lot of money for the zoo by drawing.
