Weve got two red foxes.
We got Marian and Robin.
Hello, I'm Sergio, Sergio Lazo I'm a keeper apprentice here at Lake Superior Zoo.
That's Marian.
She doesn't have one of their front legs because she was hit by a car.
She's a rescue animal.
And one really important thing now is that Marian is running for mayor here at Lake Superior Zoo, and that's so exciting.
The election here at Lake Superior Zoo is something that helps young people and kids to show them how election works in a funny way with our animals here.
So the opponent is Nester our snapping turtle from the main building.
So we got primary elections already.
And now the final elections are between Marian and Nester.
And you can vote online or here at Lake Superior Zoo.
And elections are during until November 10th.
Chicken.
Well, I, I already voted, but I don't know if I can share my preference, but I think everybody knows since I'm here now.
