Writing - The boy's future job

At the end of the story the boy says:

"So many animal jobs to choose but which one’s right for me?
Because I’m only ten years old, I’ll have to wait and see!"

What animal job will the boy do when he's grown up? Think about:

- an animal job
- which animals he will work with
- what he will do with the animals
