"Spec"Tacular - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

"Spec"Tacular - Lincoln Park Zoo



A spectacled caiman I be.
I am a reptile that is in
The crocodilus family.
Crocs and gators are cousin kin.
From mid Brazil to Mexico
Is where most of us do be at.
In swampy waters we do go,
Liking that kind of habitat.
A bony ridge between my eyes
Looks like spectacles humans wear,
And so it comes as no surprise
It's part of my name - I don't care.

I have sharp eyes to keep on you,
And have sharp teeth ready to chew.
