Yes, we do use fractions when we feed the animals. Each animal has a specific diet, and we measure food by using pounds, cups, ounces, and several otehr units of measure. Each of these measurements are hardly ever rounded to a whole number, so we use decimals and fractions to measure them out. We also use fractions, deciamls, and percents when we measure an animal's body fat, and measurements. Zoologists keep a running log of the amount af food the animals eat, and how much activity they do as well. I hope this ansers some of your questions, and feel free to check the internet for extra information!
