Overview
Activity
Update the Zoo project from checkpoint 2.7 to checkpoint 3.1.
User Story
As a developer, I want to introduce additional animal behavior and application interactions so the project demonstrates the programming concepts introduced in Zoo 3.1.
Acceptance Criteria
- Existing files contain the checkpoint changes shown in this walkthrough.
- The solution builds successfully.
- The application starts and the updated behavior can be exercised.
- Names, casing, namespaces, and member signatures match the checkpoint source.
Task List
- Update 4 existing source files.
- Build the solution and resolve any compiler errors.
- Run the application and verify the new behavior.
Exact Casing Matters
Use the filenames, class names, namespaces, method names, property names, and enum values exactly as shown.
Watch Out For
Do not copy build-output folders such as bin, obj, .vs, or package caches into your working project.
Before You Begin
Start with a clean copy of Zoo 2.7 End. Rename the extracted solution folder and solution file for the current checkpoint before making code changes.

Check Your Work
- Save all files.
- Build the solution.
- Resolve compiler errors before continuing.
- Run the application.
- Exercise the new or updated behavior associated with Zoo 3.1.
- Compare your filenames, namespaces, signatures, and key values with the code shown above.
Summary
You updated the project from Zoo 2.7 End to Zoo 3.1 End by creating the required files, modifying only the files with meaningful source changes, and verifying the completed application.
