In the place where one species

dwells;

An equivalent thrives in another.

Shall I start and you add the name?

Red and Willow,

Bald and White-tailed;

Carrion and Hooded,

Herring and Lesser Black-back.

Bewick's and Whistling,

Common and Arctic;

And don't leave out Andean and

Californian;

Nor the goat antelopes with horns like

scimitars:

In the place where one dwells,

its equivalent abounds in another.

As with Lynx Eurasian,

So too with Lynx Canadian.

Over the same stretch the Great

Horned watches,

In the Eurasian depths so too

Owl Eagle plunges.

Through the canopy the Harpy cruises.

Upon the un-suspecting the Crowned

descends.

And in the vastness of the

Pantanal,

Strides a cat like a leopard,

But crowns the apex like

a tiger:

Panthera onca

Two cats in one.
