Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Puerto Rican Parrot - LP Zoo

A Puerto Rican parrot, I
Am visiting Lincoln Park Zoo,
To help conserve my kind is why,
Because my kind are very few.
With poaching, with habitat loss,
With hurricanes, we just about
Had an extinction come across -
Did not look good for us, no doubt.
But thanks to help from human friends,
A Recovery Program began.
The increasing of us depends
On this good conservation plan.

Come visit me and we can talk.
Well actually, I tend to squawk.
