Wool

The task is "MAMMOTH" to be sure
          When the jumping mob get near
          Whether for tweed coat or rug for floor
          Then their loud bleating we hear
          As from them their coats of white we shear.

Thanks, CayCay. I wasn't sure if I would enter, as didn't quite know what to write. However, having been trained as as archeologist, I could not help trying to get a "Wooly Mammoth" into this. I appreciate your comments, as always.
