What To Do If You Are . . . Poem


What To Do If You Are the Zoo
Keep dangerous animals away from people.
Clean up after the animals.
Make sure visitors don't interfere with the animals.
Let people see the animals.
Entertain the animals.
Amaze people with what the animals can do.
Keep animals safe and clean.
Teach kids about animals.
