I Am A Big Cat

I Am A Big Cat

I hunt for prey,

Since I’m a Big Cat,

It’s not safe even during the day.

I, the Leopard, even find prey small as a blue jay,

I, All Big Cats, eat, but never grow fat,

I hunt for prey.

While the sun’s out, the prey thinks they can escape dismay,

But I, the Cheetah, loves this time to knock prey flat,

It’s not safe even during the day.

But thanks to human’s habitat-destroying way,

For prey or cat, there’s no welcome mat,

I hunt for prey.

For my trying to survive, the hunters and ranchers make me pay,

And poachers and hunters kill me like I was a rat,

It’s not safe even during the day.

Our fur becomes a display,

And from my only source of food I must scat,

I hunt for prey,

It’s not safe even during the day.
