Snail

Cockroach

I’m tiny and black, with pincers that snap, scuttling in darkness, I’m not one to nap. I hide in crevices, waiting to surprise, with a sting that’s potent, beware my size. What am I?

Scorpion

I’m long and slim, with a slithery glide, crawling in shadows, I tend to hide. Some fear me for my venomous bite, but others adore me for my shimmering might. What am I?

Snake

I’m small and wriggly, with a segmented frame, crawling on leaves, I’m not one for fame. I munch on greens, with an insatiable hunger, a common sight in gardens, where I wander. What am I?

Crab

I’m small and brown, with antennae that twitch, crawling in soil, I dig and enrich. Some call me a pest, others a friend, but in the world of gardens, I’ll always defend. What am I?
