| WE ARE IN THE ZOO STAMPS |
| Always be kind to animals, Morning, noon, and night; For animals have feelings too, And furthermore , they bite. |
| The Alligator When the Alligator open his jaws It gives people pause, And they all step out of line To read the sign, Which says, VEGETARIAN WILL NOT EAT MEN The people all nod to each other and smile And say, "It isn't a Crocodile, So obviously there is nothing at all to fear." But they don't go near. J. Gardner |
| The Giraffe The Giraffe precariously tilts On short and long stilts And his neck is long And thoroughly wrong; But does the Giraffe curl up in a corner And curse his lot And regret that he's not Attractive? And do people say, "Nothing could look forlorner?" No sir, not at all! He's active He stretches his neck up and munches the sun, And then, whenever he takes the notion, He's off like a windmill in slow-motion; And people throw their hands in the air And cry, "I declare! See him RUN!" |

| The Dinosaurs Dinosaurs lived millions and millions of years ago. The world was warm and wet. They came in all shapes and sizes. Some dinosaurs ate other dinosaurs. They are called meat eaters. Other dinosaurs ate only plants. They are called plant eaters. There were reptiles that could fly. They looked partly like birds and partly like dinosaurs. There were also many sea creatures. Some looked like dinosaurs with flippers. Dinosaurs hatched out of eggs. The eggs were laid in nests. No dinosaurs are alive today. They died out long before people lived on the earth. |
