It may well be that there is no
Man who's seen abominable snow-
Man, known also as yeti;
Yet I think if we met, he
Might flee as fast as HE could go.

What's in a name?

While Tweety's well known for his chirp,
And Pluto's trademark is his slurp,
For human fame
One needs a name
Like Wyatt, who was known to bEarp.

And across the pond

The ***** of a gent from Kent
Was angled like the roof of a tent.
When his good wife Nell
Began to swell,
He said, "Why, I've a creative bent."

Who gnu?

A strange-sounding name has the gnu,
Which has rather little to du
Except give us fits,
For were all names like its,
Just look how we'd have to spell gStu.

I prefer Bactrians

The camel, with two humps or one,
Is built to withstand sand and sun.
I don't know about you,
But, re humps, I like two;
To fall off is really no fun.

You can check Webster on this

Queer is the beast called the aardvark.
It's found in the zoo, not the park.
It has the distinction
Of cheating extinction
By being the first in the Ark.

True of the zoo

If you've never been to a zoo,
You may doubt what I say here is true:
In season of rut
The inmates are not
Concerned if we watch what they do.
