In the Jungle

As you know, it's a great tradition to sing Wimoweh (The Lion Sleeps Tonight) before going to bed. As part of that tradition, I get to choose the animal in each verse that sleeps tonight. While selections vary in the first two verses---everything from dragons to zebras to otters---I'm very consistent in my selection for the last verse. For that verse, I choose the unlikeliests of bedfellows, the tiger and the polar bear, while they never meet in the wild, the often meet in my world.
