+Hooks and hangs itself prehensile style
+Paves the path with sticky glue slime
+Just watch a velvet moss covered branch that's mobile
+but watch out for that log-like predator's guile in the Nile
with a sly smile to beguile
+Nocturnal eyeballs move on baby face in the bush, oh my!
+Another a bird with the name of a flying toy in the sky.
+Its tongue that shoots out like a soft shooting arrow
+A winged biped one standing as upright as a human fellow.
+This one has the largest ears
+This one a little crown he wears
+A living teddybear gives its baby a piggy back ride.
+A young one who in its mommy's 'hide' pocket does hide
+Hardened skin house moving upon four wheels
+And another with a clothing that peels.
+Shakes its tail like a human baby's toy
+For safety in numbers this one's caravan convoy

I have visited this poem lately for which I couldn't attain the riddle. It is really an interesting and beautiful poem on animals and reptiles as a riddle. Thank you for sharing and those poets and poetesses who have attained the riddle. I also congratulate them who are winners of the riddle.
I didn't take pains! I sent this to my grand-daughter in UK, studying 5th grade to solve it!
