World Snake Day 2020 - LP Zoo

On World Snake Day the snakes bid you,

All humans, have a learning day.

These snakes be from Lincoln Park Zoo

As ambassadors on display.

The smooth green snake, the rock python,

The Madagascar tree boa,

The Kenyan sand boa - all on

A public mission to show a 

Up close safe connection so that

Humans can better understand

Snakes' purpose in their habitat

Whether in water or on land.

Each and every snake can be

A teacher for humanity.
