At the Zany Zoo I saw
An ambitious, aspiring, animated alligator
A barbarous, brawny, bizarre boar
A cheerful, chunky, chubby cheetah
A dizzy, dashing, dazzling duck
An energetic, entertaining, elated elephant
A gregarious, gabby, giddy gorilla
A huge, hulking, healthy horse
An icky, idiotic, ignorant iguana
A keen, kindhearted kangaroo
A large, lively, lethal lion
A miniature, macho, magical monkey
A nasty, nauseating, noxious numbat
A petite, puffy, purple peacock
A quick, quixotic, quizzical quail
A robust, red, rabid, rhinoceros
A vicious, voracious, vulgar vulture
A watchful, wary, warlike wolf
And a zany, zippy, zealous zebra
