Getting Used To Humans - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Getting Used To Humans - Lincoln Park Zoo



Some of my human care team do
Stop by with us to assure that,
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
All is well in the habitat.
My rhino calf, who's two days old,
Sees these strange things moving about,
Kind of scary to first behold,
Filling my little calf with doubt.
I tell my calf to just be calm.
These are good humans who give care.
My calf stays safely behind Mom,
Taking all in with intense stare.

As time goes by my calf will know
Lots of humans do come and go.
