A kids poem

IF YOU MEET A CROCODILE by ACES


If you should meet a crocodile Don't take a stick and poke him If you do that, he might snap back For you just rudely woke him

Just leave him be, while peacefully He's basking in the sun Don't bother him, he won't bother you And we can live as one


Conservation starts with education, and you're never too young to learn how to safely live alongside crocs! Check out these adorable coloring sheets with a crocodile poem we created to help teach young kids how to act if they see a croc.
