Zoo Clues: Your Animal List
|
I cover ground without steady pace,
My young grow up in a carried space.
|
|
|
My coat is striped from head to tail,
A pattern no two can ever match in detail.
|
|
Across dry lands I take my time,
My back holds stores for when things decline.
|
|
|
I’m small but loud, with a fierce-sounding cry,
From an island down under where wild things lie.
|
|
My beak’s a tool, more net than bite,
I scoop my meals straight from the site.
|
|
|
High above, I rarely fall,
A tail like a hand helps me through it all.
|
|
I roam afar, then find my way,
Back home again without delay.
|
|
|
Bonus Entry
Hidden beneath, I shape your frame,
Without me, you’d not look the same.

Habitat Hints: Where to Search
|
Research stands for all to see,
The northern section holds the key.
|
|
|
Where futures form with a handshake’s start,
A brief hello may set you apart.
|
|
Ideas on paper, pinned with care,
Displayed with pride in the southern air.
|
|
|
Where pages turn and titles gleam,
This spot is a reader’s dream.
|
|
I don’t speak or present, but I keep things alive,
Without me, your tech may not survive.
|
|
|
Support and science meet right here,
Where giving back brings us cheer.
|
|
Your first official stop before you begin,
I trade your name for the way to get in.
|
|
|
Bonus Entry
Strike a pose and show your smile,
This space has style all the while.
