 Slater Turns 5 - LP Zoo

Harbor seal, Slater, just turned five,

And he is one harbor seal who

Likes to party hearty - no jive.

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,

The keepers baked him a fish cake,

Stuck it out on a rock so that

Slater would see it and would make

A seal line to where cake was at.

Not being a guy who's meekish,

Slater grabs the cake and flips out,

Gobblin' down a bunch of the fish,

Leaving some for others, no doubt.

Happy 5th Birthday, Slater seal,

Time for celebrating big deal.
