THE ANIMAL COUPLET GAME....

Hi everyone. I hope you like this game. I thought it might be fun for us!

Name 4 animals, 2 rhyming couplets, each animal must be mentioned in the proper line.

Example:

bear
loon
tiger
wallaby

The bear stalks, and seems quite addled.
The loon balks, and tries to paddle.
Weeping tiger hunts his prey,
The wallaby just hops away.

After each submission, post a new list of 4 animals for the others. So, I will start:

Dog
Cat
Snake
Fish

Good idea - well done with coming up with yet another idea Emily jane!

Dog howls
Cat prowls
Snake slides
Fish glides.

Pig
Sheep
Goat
Hen

the pig squeals, sounding squeaky
the sheep sigh, shuddering meekly
the goat grunts, somewhat roughly
the hen clucks, disapproving toughly
