Critterature: Who's Afraid of Louis Vuitton

Don't be fooled by the smile of a crocodile Who appears to be happy to meet you. For though his grin is beguiling, In his head he's compiling Various ways he is planning to eat you. A croc's disposition is hard to predict, It's quixotic and largely a moot case. The main thing he most often worries about, And what keeps him for poachers upon the lookout, Is becoming a handbag or suitcase.
