About the animals in the jungle
I’m a Forest Elephant
 I spend my life in trees I am a vegetarian
I’m from South America African home is much preferred
I eat sticks, buds, and leaves
I’m a Black Panther
I am a scarlet macaw From the Felidae family
And I’m yellow, blue and red I’m from South Africa
I eat fruits and nuts And meat is what I eat
And when I fly my wings are spread
I'm an Orangutan
I'm a Red Eyed Tree Frog I live on Asian islands
I am Orange, Blue, and Green I spend my life in trees
I live in Central America I eat fruit with my hands
I eat bugs to stay lean
We are endangered animals
I’m a lowland gorilla Of the rain forest in the jungle
I dwell in African forests Please listen to our song and learn
I munch on veggies and bugs About the animals in the jungle
Now let's sing this chorus
Deforestation and poaching are real bad
That's what makes us endangered creatures
Learn about all of the animals
And do your part and become the teacher
