wapiti is Elk in my crossword games
an Ibex is wooly but has a great name.
The ibis is a bird with long legs and beak
a dingo is a dog in Austrailan speak.

Where the deer and the buffalo roam
They trample the little mouse home
But the giraffe steps over them all
But can trip over the rinocerous and fall

The Heteromyidae sits in his cave all day
while the bats fiddle the day away
the bears steal all the baskets from tourists
while the chipmunks romp all day in the forests

How sweetly the alligator grins for me
Inviting me and the manate,
Beware his grin for the caribou
He may eat caribou, and sloth, and you.

Have you ever been bitten by a crocodile?
Did you see the monitor lizard when he smiled?
Or the gecko in a commercial on TV?
The chikchak says, " no, just let me be."

Dinosaur was the biggest thing alive
"Yeah", said the whale " But you didn't survive"
"We did" squeaked rabbit, "it's our sex drive"
"Well", said the goat "put us anywhere,we thrive"

Ha! Ha!

The penquin is dressed in formal wear
Causing low class pelican to point and stare.
The "Stork Club" is the penquin's domain
He'll never leave, better call a crane!

The starfish gets toughish if asked for a dollar
The urchin wears spikes instead of a collar;
If you buy a beach holiday, use a sand dollar
And if a crab nips you, by god do you holler!

A worm wiggles in and out of the ground
While the spider waits patiently, looking around
The silverfish hides in the cracks of tree wood
While the army ant stands guard of his neighborhood

fish food (animals?)

A slug slid sluggishly over the mud
While the butterfly settled on the peony bud.
Flower petals floated down to the ground
And fish food's under the grill to get browned.

The jerk said 'go kick that kittiwake'
Auk yelled, 'Owww, I'll be up in a shake'
Quail squeaked, 'don't worry, he such a flake'
Partridge knew better "ah, he's half baked'

The weasle lives in a Jack-In-The-Box
Sometimes the ferret hangs out with the fox
The badger hangs out at the skating ring
Wearing a fancy coat of mink.

Never incommode a Kermode bear,
Or tell a mountain caribou what to wear.
Peter Rabbit got caught by the gardener McGregor
And that red wolf is such a handsome beggar.

No dormouse, gives anything a whirl

"She's coyote ugly!"
Said the wolf so smugly.
"The dingos are better looking in Australia!"
Laughed the rude hyena.

An artic fox lies in the snow covered up so nice
while polar bear drinks a coke, skating on the ice
walrus came to play the game of hide-n-seek at noon
while husky sang his night time tune howling at the moon

Grizzly
swan
crab
star fish
Thought I'd try a tongue twister for the next luckless contestant - please say this fairly quickly:

The grizzly dizzily chisels fizzly sizzly whistles;
Swan swam suavely on the Swannee through the thistles.
Flabby baby crabs grab a drab dab and laugh
Starfish half is toughish, half is garfish, but which half?

OK ducks?
merganser
common pochard
muscovy duck
shoveller
