The Endangered Species Alphabet, a poem by Casey Berna

As the text is read, a rich and beautiful visual of each animal is depicted on the screen.

Alligator lounging lazily in the swampy waters.
Blackbird flying freely in a sky that has no borders.
Condor sailing seamlessly high above the ground.
Dragonfly chasing cheerfully his best friend all around.
Elephant touting triumphantly his trunk up towards the sky.
Fox looking leeringly at the passersby.
Giant Panda eating elegantly the nutritious bamboo tree.
Horse galloping gallantly so happy and so free.
Iguana standing silently as he quickly flicks his tongue.
Jaguar dashing devilishly as he breaks into a run.
Koala snacking sleepily on the leaves so green.
Leopard stretching spryley as she reaches to get clean.
Mouse squeaking softly as he scampers by.
Numbat trotting tenderly with her bushy tail held high.
Owl peering precociously as he looks for mice.
Polar Bear marching marvelously through the snow and ice.
Quail cooing quietly as the crickets sing their tune.
Red Wolf howling heroically as she looks up at the moon.
Spider crawling creepily while on her web she weaves.
Toad hopping happily over sticks and leaves.
Uakari climbing carefully then swinging vine to vine.
Viper slithering sneakily looking for food to dine.
Whale bellowing beautifully a song to attract his friends.
Xiphias diving daringly towards the ocean ends.
Yak hovering harmlessly over the watering pond.
Zebra grazing gracefully the grasses in which he's fond.
