It's Wolf Awareness Week and, true,
The red wolves are very aware
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
And in celebration they share
...
Two crowned lemurs, Dad and son, do
Keep close watch on a keeper near
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
To check out why the keeper's here.
...
A male green broadbill bird, I do
Sport a vibrant, bright plumage green
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
Wowing the gals who eye my sheen.
...
An upside down hanging out bat,
I'm awaiting Halloween night,
Resting up in my habitat,
Excited for my flight of fright.
...
There be some sharks that walk about.
Upon coral reefs they like to be.
Called epaulette sharks - there's no doubt
They be an oddity to see.
...
As a naked mole rat I do
Be the Queen of the colony
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
A newly picked Queen I do be.
...
Mr. Mandarin duck does do
A fine feathered dazzling display,
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
For showing off in his own way.
...
Why do I lie about my age,
Stating I'm younger than I be?
Done always in the dating stage,
Trying to sell a younger me.
...
The injured snapping turtles, two,
Did have their injuries cared for
By folks at the Lincoln Park Zoo,
Then back to live their lives once more.
