African White Dog

All hail African wild dogs Revered even by haughty hogs They are clothed in black, white and yellow, Clean and colorful, as real as the rainbow On African plain they stroll and struggle Never would you find them in a jungle They are socialites, sealed like stacks They peck, play and prey in their packs Unlike local dogs they prey with their eyes Sharp-sighted like the eagles in the skies They are simple but swift, mighty mammals They prey on large antelopes, impalas and zebras Dutiful dogs they are, running a rugged race 55kilometer per hour, what a powerful pace! Their age-long habitat got decreased and degraded As human beings constantly increased and invaded These daring dogs, endangered by human persecution Are suffering in their habitats modified by human intrusion
