Who Is the Ugliest At the Ugly Bug Ball

Who is the ugliest at the ugly bug ball? Is it the hideous gnat or giraffe so tall? Could it be that spitting camel with the ugly hump? Or the orangutan with the butt that makes us jump? Mayhaps it is the blue-footed boobie, a weird looking fellow Or that weird looking duckling whose suit is off-color yellow. Bloody turkey buzzard with mouth full of gore just came in. He is not only ugly, but his carnivorous ways are an evil twin. Octopus, penguin, goat, quail, each with an oddity. Scorpion, wasp, rattlesnake with pattern of a vee…. Who is the ugliest at the ugly bug ball? Starfish and squirrel get to pick but they went to the mall. Could it be the mongoose, the peahen or yak? Let’s choose the winner before they get back. Sturgeon has a suggestion. It sounds like a wow. Let’s call it a tie, and give them all a big whack.
