Jamaican Iguana Rebound - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Jamaican iguana, I do
Play the role of ambassador
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
To help my kind in the wild more.
For a long time my kind were thought
Extinct on the Jamaica isle.
A few of us were found and got
A second chance at wild lifestyle.
I was Zoo hatched in time and place,
And here to make humans aware
Of our conservation case,
Coming back to Jamaica there.

And if successful, mate and me,
Will hatch our own family.
