The poem How to Tell Wild Animals is humorous and does not deal with any serious theme. It simply tells how to recognise wild animals. And they method chose by the poet is queer. She says that we will be able to recognise an animal by the way it kills us.
If it roars while killing us, it is a lion. If an animal with yellow skin and dark spots on it eats us, it is leopard. And if an animal kills us by hugging tightly, it is bear etc. In the end, the poet also mentions how to differentiate between crocodile and hyena and chameleon and lizard.
