Don't agitate an alligator anchored in the mud A bear can't bear a baiting so beware The camel cannot cogitate unless it chews the cud All dogs are deeply dippy when they dare Some elephants are expert at escaping from a flood A ferret fascinates folk at a fair Gazelle go at great speed so gracefully they seem to glide A hippo hides its hard head when it's hot Iguana are inscrutable, innately triple-eyed The jaguar likes jelly not one jot Koalas could well kick at you so kindly keep aside A lemur loves to leap along a lot Macaws are messy munchers and they mumble quite a bit The narwhal is a nosy novelty An octopus can operate with quite outstanding wit The panda will protect its property The quagga was quite quick and quaint until it quietly quit And rabbits romp reverberatingly The sea lion is a social swimmer slopping on the sand A tiger can trisect you in a trice Umbrella birds are unable to fly far you understand Vipers are very vulnerable to vice A wolverine has wiry wool, it's well worth watching and The xoloitzcuintle is extremely nice The yak that yields it's yarn for you may yearn for younger years And overzealous zebra zips and zooms about in tears All beasties can deliver endless fancy generation However independently just keep life's moderation No-one's offering perhaps quite rightly sometimes to Ubiquitously vacillate while X-raying your zoo
