Skink or Skunk? (Whatever You Thunk)


by Mariam Kirby (Ranger Rick Magazine)



Since skinks can have stripes down their backs like a skunk,
And skunks have sharp teeth that go snap like a skink's,



The clue to help choose what's a skink from a skunk
Comes from using your nose, which can tell by the stink
Which one's not a lizard and squirts you with gunk.


But if you're confused and your mind's in a kink
'Cause both of these creatures are sharing your bunk,



The rule for behavior is just what you think--
Make friends with the skink, run away from the skunk!

  1. Those skunks are cute, but they sure can stink up everything in their path! Love the charms, though!
