The domestic dog,
out for a constitutional jog,
is sorting the male from the female
by checking his pee-mail.

One of the things about a cat
is that
he won't come when you're calling.
There are some who find this appalling.

The Thylacine
had no gene
that was the least bit feline and it never purred
even though it was quite tiger-stripingly en-furred

Finding a rhyme for the aardvark
Is hard work,
But for its alternative name, "African ant bear",
Rhymes are less rare.

The Great White Shark
Used to be dark,
But seeing Trump swimming gave it such a fright
That it turned white.

The axolotl
Is not as intelligent as Aristotle,
But unlike him,
It can regenerate a damaged limb.

The Platypus
made no fuss
when learning he was different.
Indeed, was seemingly quite diffident.

The Echidna,
(which I cannot rhyme)
in a gift from the Antipodean Venus,
has the most amazing four headed penis.

The echidna,
for which I didna
find a rhyme...

Och aye John I didna see that.

Grinning with a cha-grin
