Zella is an animal lover. She enjoys being outside. She loves going to zoos, aquariums, as well as exploring wildlife while camping.
Thank you for generously supporting Marzella in this year’s competition. Your participation helps empower the National Wildlife Federation in their mission to protect wildlife, restore habitats, and inspire the next generation of conservationists.
What Zella loves most about nature is the beautiful things to see. She likes all the different colors that can be found in the rocks, and plants, and animals. All the sounds and different ways they live. Like the sounds of the birds chirping in the morning.
HORSES!!! Zella loves all animals, but her favorite are horses, just like her mother. We have a few horses that Zella's mother uses to teach horseback riding lessons. Zella helps care for them by preparing grain buckets, mucking stalls, and bathing the horses. She loves how beautiful they are and the fact that you can ride them.
In addition to horseback riding, our family loves going on road trips and camping in the summer. We travel to San Diego and go to the beach or the tide pools. Zella likes searching for seashells. While traveling we like to visit zoos, aquariums, and national parks/forests. We'll go on short easy hikes and explore the beautiful environment. We live in a desert, so anytime we travel and see the green trees, it makes it extra special.
