The ocean's ruler, sleek and grand,

The orca reigns, a finned command.

Predator fierce, with jaws so wide,

No moose is safe, no place to hide.

 

When moose wade deep, their instincts fail,

For lurking near: a killer whale.

An ungulate’s splash, a risky fonder,

Orca thinks, "Venison? Why, I wonder!"

 

No menu limit for this marine beast,

Moose or seal, it finds a feast.

So tread with care, oh forest deer,

Watery paths are Orca’s frontier.

 

Thus concludes a lesson we impart,

Stay on dry land, that's the start.

For beneath the waves, where silence prevails,

Moose meets the king of killer tales.
