INTRODUCTION: In the poet How to Tell Wild Animals, the poet describes various wild animals in an intriguing and mysterious manner. These animals are extremely dangerous, but the poetess is introducing them one by one in a hilarious manner. First, she tells us about the Asian lion. She claims that if we go to the eastern jungles and see an animal with tawny skin that roars, we will die of terror and it means we’ve come across an Asian lion.
