Alaska Wildlife

It was a trip I’ll never forget
The wildlife here and there
The moose I saw the biggest yet
And also a grizzly bear

The ptarmigan was a beautiful bird
And the magpie pretty too
Both a part of the wilderness
With a lynx there to pursue 

Happy were the many squirrels
Scurrying along the trails
Busy in the many spruces
and flashing their bushy tails

The timber wolves were also there

Hunting in their pack

Their tracking collars revealing them

To the rangers keeping track

 

The ravens flew with their heavy beaks

And the beavers built their dams

The martens preyed upon the weak

And the mountain had its rams

 

The days lasted twenty hours

And the animals kept pace with it

They were active most the day

and we didn’t mind a bit
