Adopt Us - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

We African painted dogs do
Get a kick out of seeing it,
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
A plush that looks like us - a hit!
The little human kids do bring
These cute stuffed toys to us to show
The look a like to the real thing.
This helps support us - doncha know!
ADOPT us and a plush you get
And part of the price that you pay
Helps assure that great care is met
For us each and every day.

A plush of us we would enjoy,
Cuz it would make a great chew toy.
