In the jungle, where wild things roam,
A poacher sneaks, far from his home.
He takes what's not his, a terrible crime,
And puts endangered species on the line.

But fear not, young ones, for these creatures adapt,
With venom and muscle, they'll make a clean wrap.
Their organs and bacteria keep them strong,
And they'll keep on living, all day long.

Conservation is key, to keep them safe and sound,
And protect each reptile that's so profound.
From snakes to lizards, and all in between,
We'll keep them thriving, with habitats clean.

So let's all be friends, with these scaly creatures,
And protect them well, as they are teachers.
Of how to survive, in nature's game,
And keep adapting, to remain the same.

Reflections

1. What is a poacher and why is it wrong to poach animals?
2. How do reptiles adapt to survive in their environments?
3. What are some things we can do to help protect endangered species and their habitats?
4. Why is conservation important?
5. How can we be brave like the characters in the story and stand up for what is right?
