Ricko Weighs In - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Ricko Weighs In - Lincoln Park Zoo



Ricko, the rhino, I am big,
Doing my weigh in, yes I do.
Getting weighed is part of my gig
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
The keepers keep me on my toes,
Standing on my extra large scale,
Quick and easy my weighing goes,
Adding up pounds from head to tail.
My weigh in is voluntary.
It's up to me whether to weigh.
I get some treats to entice me,
So I weigh in and say okay.

My exact weight - I don't mention,
A big guy, give or take a ton.
