This is a necessary job because accidental collisions（碰撞）between planes and animals are dangerous and can destroy the plane. Although it' s not common to see dogs at work on runways（跑道）,controlling wildlife in this way is a great idea!Piper works with Brian Edwards, his trainer. When the control tower calls to tell Brian about geese, ducks, owls, foxes or other animals on the runway, Brian puts Piper in his car and they drive to the area. Then Piper runs after the animals and chases them so planes can take off safely. That is natural for him and he enjoys himself very much during work. Even though this seems easy, Piper had lots of training to get him used to airplanes. Piper also needs special equipment to do this job. He wears goggles（护目 镜）with reflective lenses to protect his eyes from flying objects on the runway and from the sun. Piper also has ear muffs to protect his hearing.Piper is now an important part of the Cherry Capital airport because.1. What is Piper' s job at Cherry Capitol Airport?2.
