Stutterers are often tense in a public setting, especially when it comes to public speaking.  I know how it feels to experience virtually every embarrassment that people who stutter often experience!  One day we will eventually find the cure for stuttering; I will definitely pursue the cure for stuttering.  But for now I think a merry heart does good like medicine and let us take a comedy look at what we stutterers can learn from the animal kingdom!
A--ant:  we  can be slow at times but we will eventually get there
B--bear: listening to us can potentially send you into hibernation
C--cheetah: sometimes we just need to slow down
D--deer:  tell me about the, "deer in a headlight," experience!  (public speaking)
E--elephant:  trying to get these trunk of words out
F--firefly:  now you see me, now you don't; now you hear me, now you don't!
G--goat:  may-may-may-may-may, sounds too familiar perfecting the art of repetition!
H--horse:  Gallup, Gallup, Gallup--just slow down!
I--Iguana:  crawling along but we will get there
J--jaguar:  spotted cat, spotted words!
K--Kangaroo:  keep on hopping over my words!
L--lion:  trying to  display courage under fire in a public setting is not easy!
M--mouse:  we keep avoiding the "cat," lets go for the "cheese," and let the world know  that
       we are high achievers!
N--night hawk:  still AVOIDING daylight!
O--owl:  we covert stutterers are still living in the dark!
P--Parrot:  we actually can talk folks,  just give us a chance
Q--quail:  aren't we suppose to fly?
R--rhinoceros:  remember, "don't judge a book by its cover."
S--squirrel:  where is the tree when you need it!
T--turtle:  I think I can; I think I can!
U--urchin:  the wheels are slowly turning
V--viceroy:  we don't have the option of changing our names when called upon!
W--whale:  public speaking for stutterers!
X-- x-ray fish:  can you "see" what I am taking about!
Y--yak:  do I really sound like that!
Z--zebra:  stars and strips; no, what about repetition and repetition
