Where Have They Gone?
By Zeba Uddin
An Animal Rights Poem from All-Creatures.org

All of God's creatures have rights, a fact that most people don't seem to recognize. This includes both human and non-human animals, but not all of them can speak for themselves.

Where Have They Gone?
By Zeba Uddin

Where have all the animals gone?
What have we done?
Where did they go?
Oh, no.

The caribou's are gone,
In the middle of Dawn.
Did they disappear?
Oh, so much I fear!

Did the great ducks fly away or run?
Was it the human gun?
Such beautiful birds,
On the blessed planet that's third.

Where have all the animals gone?
What have we done?
Where did they go?
Oh, no.
