Going On an Animal Hunt (Chant)
We're going on an animal hunt, (your turn)
Searching for our friends. (say as I say)
Got my map in my hands,
And my binoculars too.

I see an animal in the distance.
It's got a long, wavy mane
Big, huge eyes
And a swishy swashy tail.

Shhhhhh! Tip-toe, tip-toe, tip-toe, tip-toe, tip-toe
It’s a lion!

I see an animal in the distance
It’s got a very, long neck
Straight, boney legs
And spots all over it’s body

It’s a giraffe!

I see an animal in the distance
It’s got a big, long trunk
Two sharp tusks
And some huge, flapping ears

It’s an elephant!

I see an animal in the distance
It’s got very big mouth
Some tough gray skin
And floats in muddy water

It’s a hippo!

I see an animal in the distance
It’s got long, bendy arms
A very strong tail
And swings through the trees

It’s a monkey!
