Comparing the foibles of some animals
Animal Foibles

A powerful giant is the elephant
But do some things it simply can't
Though it can crush the largest plant
It can't jump a wall to catch an ant

The Giraffe has an very odd profile
And it takes him not long to run a mile
It's never been known to do things vile
So it's very unlike the crocodile

The lion has a mighty roar
And is often mentioned in folklore
They travel in prides of four or more
But unlike the eagle it cannot soar
