 Lasso Locomotion

"Lasso locomotion" does be

A way the brown tree snake did learn

On Guam isle to successfully

Climb to reach birds the snakes do yearn.

Humans put cylinders around

Bases of bird nest boxes and

The snakes learned new moves to astound,

As though the snakes could understand

That looping the cylinders would

Enable them to wiggle up.

It took more time but the snakes could

Get to the bird prey to eat - yup!

Newest attempt at snake free zones -

Cylinders shaped like ice cream cones.
