Elephant Nelly
Threw back her head, closed her eyes,
And made a trunk call.
The monkeys wondered:
What makes "Homo Sapiens"
Pull stupid faces?
Chimps chew bananas,
While marmosets scramble, yet,
Gibbons decline and fall.
Lioness Laura
Makes cubs' sandwiches with care,
Using "Mothers' Pride".
The apes, however,
Prefer hot food - ideally
From the Gorilla.
Penguins trip over,
So keepers dash to p..p..
Pick up a Penguin.
Fred couldn't say "No,"
To fish, because he was the
Seal of approval.
Randolph the "racehorse",
When told he was a camel,
Really got the hump.
The crocs had gathered
To play their favourite game.
You guessed - it was "snap."
Porcupine Percy
Was forced to mate with great care,
Surprising no-one.
The whales formed a choir -
A school choir, not male voice:
Sang "Whale-meat Again.."
A wonderful plan..
Sell visitors the manure,
Call it zoo poo. (True!)
