Transcript: Iron Wolverine
Music plays as the Wild Kratts logo pops up and a voice says Wild Kratts!
Then, a globe spins and Alaska appears highlighted.
The Kratt brothers appear. Chris wears a green shirt and Martin wears a blue shirt.
Martin says AROUND THE WORLD
IN THE EXTREME NORTH
IS A CREATURE THAT THRIVES
IN HARSH WILDERNESS.
WE'RE HERE IN ALASKA.
The brothers walk by a lake.
Chris says IT'S US
THE KRATT BROTHERS.
I'M CHRIS.
Martin says I'M MARTIN. WHEN
YOU THINK OF WEASELS,
YOU USUALLY THINK
OF SMALL, SKINNY,
FAST MOVING CREATURES.
LIKE SHORT-TAILED ERMINES,
TREE DWELLING PINE MARTENS,
AND WATER LOVING MINK.
Chris says BUT THERE'S ONE
PARTICULAR MEMBER
OF THE WEASEL FAMILY
THAT'S STOCKY,
STRONG AND REALLY, REALLY TOUGH.
IT'S A TRUE PREDATOR
OF THE NORTH.
Martin says OH YEAH!
Chris says THEY'RE IN ANY
TERRAIN. IN THE SHORES,
THE MOUNTAINS OR IN THE WOODS.
Martin says THIS IS A WOLVERINE.
IT'S NOT A WOLF,
IT'S NOT A SMALL BEAR.
Chris says IT'S ACTUALLY A
MEMBER OF THE WEASEL FAMILY.
A MUSTELID, AND WOLVERINES
HAVE AWESOME CREATURE POWERS.
WOLVERINES ARE TRUE
NORTHERN CREATURES.
THEY LIVE IN BOREAL FORESTS, FAR
UP NORTH, ALL AROUND THE GLOBE,
WHERE THEIR INCREDIBLE ENDURANCE
LET'S THEM CONTROL
MASSIVE TERRITORIES.
Martin says WOLVERINES ARE
LONG DISTANCE RUNNERS.
THEY COVER A LOT OF GROUND.
A wolverine runs across a snow landscape.
Martin says A WOLVERINE'S
TERRITORY CAN BE
HUNDREDS OF SQUARE KILOMETERS.
Martin says THEY'RE
NOT A HUGE ANIMAL.
NOT COMPARED TO WOLVES
OR GRIZZLY BEARS,
BUT THESE WOLVERINES ARE SO
TOUGH, SO FEROCIOUS, SO BRAVE
AND SO STRONG, WITH
A POWERFUL BITE,
THEY ARE WILLING TO TAKE
ON A WOLF OR A GRIZZLY BEAR
THAT'S MANY MANY TIMES ITS SIZE.
THE WOLVERINE IS ONE
POWER PACKED CREATURE.
IMAGINE IF WE COULD
KEEP UP WITH THIS
AWESOME NORTHERN POWERHOUSE.
Chris says IMAGINE IF WE
HAD WOLVERINE POWERS.
The Brothers say WHAT IF?
The brothers jump and turn into cartoons. In animation, a paw print appears, followed by a map, and then the brothers swim under the sea and swing from jungle vines.
A song plays and says ON ADVENTURE WITH THE COOLEST CREATURES, FROM THE OCEANS TO THE TREES, THE BROTHERS KRATT ARE GOING PLACES YOU NEVER GET TO SEE, HANGING WITH THEIR CREATURE FRIENDS. GET READY, IT'S THE HOUR, WE'RE GONNA SAVE SOME ANIMALS TODAY WITH CREATURE POWER! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD!
Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy Z send them creature disks from Tortuga, the ship. The brothers place the disks in their suits and morph into superheroes with animal legs and wings. Then, they run, swim and fly with animals in the wild.
The song continues
CHEETAH SPEED AND LIZARD GLIDE, FALCON FLIGHT AND LION PRIDE, GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS. GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS!
The name of the episode appears. It reads "Iron Wolverine."
The team travels in the Tortuga.
Jimmy Z says IT'S PRETTY
WINTERY HERE
IN THE SCANDINAVIAN SUBARCTIC.
Koki says I'M GOING TO BE
CENTERED AND READY TO GO.
Martin hangs upside down doing abdominal crunches.
Martin says 1001...
1002...
1003...
YUP, BIG DAY TOMORROW...1004
Jimmy Z says I LIKE LOADING
UP ON CARBS, BUT,
NOT SURE I'M GOING TO
LIKE THE RACE TOMORROW.
Martin says IT'LL BE FUN, JIMMY.
AN ADVENTURE.
Aviva says YEAH, CHRIS
SURE IS EXCITED ABOUT IT.
HE'S BEEN PLANNING NON-STOP.
Chris stands next to a big race course.
Chris says THIS IS GOING
TO BE THE GREATEST RACE
THE NORTH HAS EVER SEEN!
Martin says WOW, THAT'S
THE RACE COURSE BRO?
UP AND DOWN ALL
THOSE MOUNTAIN RANGES?
THROUGH SUCH A VAST WILDERNESS?
Chris says YUP! YOU'VE HEARD
OF THE IDITAROD RIGHT?
EPIC SLED DOG RACE.
AND THE VASALOPPET
RACE IN SWEDEN.
Race images appear on the wall screen.
He continues ONE OF THE GREATEST CROSS
COUNTRY SKI RACES IN THE WORLD.
AND IRON MAN RACES THAT COMBINE
SWIMMING, BIKING, AND RUNNING.
WELL, I'M CALLING THIS
WILDERNESS RACE...
THE IRON WOLVERINE!
Jimmy Z says SOUNDS HARD.
Koki says SAY WHAT?
WOLVE- WHAT?
Chris says WOLVERINE. THIS
RACE IS NAMED AFTER
ONE OF THE GREATEST, TOUGHEST
ADVENTURERS OF THE NORTH.
The Brothers say THE WOLVERINE!
Martin says OH THEY'RE SO AWESOME.
THE LARGEST MEMBER OF THE
WEASEL FAMILY THAT LIVE ON LAND.
TOUGH, MUSCULAR, AND FULL
OF CONFIDENCE AND POWER
THAT'S EVEN BIGGER
THAN THEIR SIZE.
Chris says AND THEY'RE
ALWAYS ON THE MOVE.
COVERING DOZENS OF
KILOMETERS A DAY.
Chris says THIS WHOLE AREA
CAN BE THE TERRITORY
OF A SINGLE WOLVERINE.
Aviva says WOW. WHY
SUCH A BIG TERRITORY?
Martin says THE TERRITORY OF
AN ANIMAL IS BASICALLY
THE AMOUNT OF SPACE IT NEEDS
TO HAVE ENOUGH FOOD AND
RESOURCES TO SURVIVE.
Chris says SOME ANIMALS,
LIKE SQUIRRELS,
GET EVERYTHING THEY
NEED FROM A SMALL AREA.
Jimmy Z says ME TOO.
He runs to hug the fridge and says I NEED'S RIGHT HERE.
Martin says OTHER ANIMALS,
USUALLY PREDATORS,
NEED BIGGER AREAS.
Chris says SO WHILE WE'RE ON THIS
RACE, KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED
FOR THE SUPER RARE WOLVERINE.
AND MAYBE WE CAN FIGURE OUT
WHY THEY NEED SO MUCH SPACE.
TOMORROW WE RIDE.
AND MAY THE BEST TREKKER WIN
THE IRON WOLVERINE TROPHY.
Jimmy Z says JUST SURVIVING
WOULD BE A WIN FOR ME.
Now Chris stands in a snowy mountain.
Chris says IT'S ALMOST
STARTING TIME.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE
TRAVEL MODE EVERYONE CHOSE.
IT'S...KOKI!
Koki slides down using snowshoes.
(whoosh)
(splat)
Chris says BRRRRRR!
SNOWSHOES!
Koki says PERFECT FOR ALL
KINDS OF SNOWY TERRAIN.
Chris says AWESOME CHOICE KOKI!
Koki stands on one leg and says NOW IT'S TIME
TO ACCESS MY CHI.
Martin says WAHOOO! HERE I COME!
Chris says CROSS COUNTRY SKIS.
KEEP KICKING BRO!
Martin says OR NOT.
CAUSE I BROUGHT A FRIEND.
HA HA! YEAH!
A Siberian dog pulls Martin as he skies.
Martin says IT'S CALLED SKIJORING.
YAHOO!
Koki says I GUESS SOME PEOPLE CAN'T
DO IT ON THEIR OWN POWER.
Chris says AND SOME PEOPLE
DON'T WANT TO USE ANY
OF THEIR OWN POWER.
Jimmy Z appears driving a rocket sled.
Martin says A ROCKET SLED!
Jimmy Z says HEY-O! READY TO GO!
Martin says WHAT ABOUT YOU
CHRIS? WHAT'D YOU CHOOSE?
Chris says TA DA!
Martin says SNOWBOARD!
GOOD FOR DOWNHILL, BUT WHAT
ABOUT FLATS AND UPHILL?
Chris says IT'S AN ESNOWBOARD.
ELECTRIC BATTERY BOOSTERS.
Martin says OH! COOL!
Flying in the Tortuga, Aviva says ARE THE
CONTESTANTS READY?
The Brothers say YEAH!
Koki says ALL SET!
Jimmy Z says LET'S DO THIS!
Aviva says ON YOUR MARK...
GET SET...GO!
Jimmy Z says THIS IS GOING
TO BE A LONG RACE.
HELLO AUTOPILOT.
Jimmy Z presses a button and lies down.
Aviva checks the race on the model court.
Aviva says OK, EVERYONE IS
OFF TO A GOOD START...
WELL, EXCEPT JIMMY.
CHECKING CHRIS'S PROGRESS.
Chris says HA HA! WAHOO!
THIS BRINGS SNOWBOARDING
TO A NEW LEVEL!
YEAH!
Aviva says HE'S REALLY MOVING.
OK, HOW ABOUT MARTIN?
Martin says HAHA! WHOOO!
LET'S WORK TOGETHER PAL AND
BRING THIS TROPHY HOME.
Aviva says AND KOKI?
(upbeat racing music plays)
Running, Koki says SLOW AND
STEADY WINS THE RACE.
IT IS CALLED THE IRON WOLVERINE,
SO I'M TRAVELING
WOLVERINE STYLE.
MY SNOWSHOES ARE
LIKE GIANT PAWS.
THEY SPREAD OUT MY WEIGHT,
SO I DON'T SINK DEEP DOWN.
I GLIDE OVER THE SNOW AND
SAVE ENERGY, WOLVERINE-STYLE.
A wolverine runs behind Koki.
Aviva says A WOLVERINE!
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!
LOOK HOW IT'S SCALING
THAT SNOWY HILL NO PROBLEM.
Aviva says AND THEY CAN COVER
50 KILOMETERS IN A DAY.
Aviva says THEY ARE AMAZING!
KOKI! KOKI! QUICK,
LOOK BEHIND YOU!
Koki says WHAT!?
I DON'T SEE ANYTHING.
AVIVA, YOU'RE BREAKING MY PACE.
GOTTA GO!
Aviva says THEY ARE MYSTERIOUS
AND HARD TO SPOT.
WOLVERINES ARE INCREIBLE!
I'VE GOT TO MAKE A
WOLVERINE POWER SUIT.
(slow paced music plays)
Martin says WHEW! WE GOT TO
THE MOUNTAIN RANGE FAST,
BUT GETTING UP IT IS ROUGH!
(strange growling)
OH... WHAT IS THAT?
IT'S...COMING THIS WAY!
HIDE! AAH!
He whispers LET'S GET A LOOK
WITH THE MINI-CAM,
NOTHING. I DON'T SEE ANYTHING.
WHOA...AAAH...
(crack)
CHECKING RECORDING.
AMAZING!
A WOLVERINE!
OH, YOU'RE TOUGH.
BUT DON'T WORRY.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO TRY TO TAKE
WHATEVER YOUR DIGGING FOR.
WHAT ARE YOU DIGGING FOR?
Aviva appears projected on a holo screen.
Aviva says THOSE HUGE PAWS CAN
REALLY MOVE A LOT OF SNOW.
Martin says I THINK I
KNOW WHAT SHE'S AFTER.
HOLD ON AVIVA.
SCANNING UNDER THE SNOW.
THERE! A LEMMING!
SHE'S TRYING TO DIG
OUT THAT LEMMING.
Aviva says YOU'RE
KIDDING ME!
THAT'S HOW SHE GETS
FOOD IN THE WINTER?
Martin says IT'S ONE
OF THE MANY WAYS.
WOLVERINES WILL EAT
ANYTHING THEY CAN GET.
THAT'S WHY THE SCIENTIFIC
NAME FOR A WOLVERINE IS...
UM...AH...WHAT IS IT?
Chris says GULO GULO.
(laughter)
Chris snowboards past them.
Martin says YOU'RE RIGHT.
Chris says LATER BROOOOO!
Martin says THANKS CHRIS. THAT'S IT.
GULO GULO. LATIN FOR GLUTTON.
IF YOU'RE A GLUTTON IT
MEANS YOU LIKE TO EAT A LOT.
WOLVERINES WILL EAT
ANY KIND OF ANIMAL,
FROM MICE TO RABBITS TO
MOOSE AND REINDEER.
OH, THIS IS EASY.
I'LL CALL YOU GULO.
Aviva says WELL, GULO'S GETTING
AWFULLY CLOSE TO THAT LEMMING.
Martin says NO SHE'S NOT.
RUN, LEMMING, RUN!
(scampering music plays)
UH-OH.
NOW WE GOTTA...RUN!
AAH!
The Siberian dog runs away.
Martin says OH, THERE GOES
MY TREKKING BUDDY.
Aviva says DON'T WORRY. I'LL
MAKE SURE HE GETS HOME SAFE.
Martin says THANKS.
I GOTTA KEEP RACING.
I HAVE SOME CATCHING UP TO DO.
Meanwhile, Chris snowboards and says WAHOOO!
DOWNHILL IS WHERE
I TAKE THE LEAD!
YE HA!
He stops and says WHOA...REINDEER!
THESE CREATURES ARE
ACTIVE ALL WINTER TOO,
BUT DON'T NEED TO MOVE
AROUND SUCH LARGE AREAS
BECAUSE THEY EAT
PLANTS AND LICHEN.
IN FACT, OVER 100 REINDEER
CAN FIT INTO THE TERRITORY
OF A SINGLE WOLVERINE.
WHOA! THERE'S THAT
SINGLE WOLVERINE!
OH, SNEAK ATTACK FROM THE TREES!
AND THEY'RE NOT
AFRAID TO TACKLE PREY
MORE THAN FIVE TIMES THEIR SIZE.
Martin says WHOOAAA!
Chris says OH NO!
MARTIN SLOW DOWN. STOOOOOP!
Skiing out of control, Martin yells CROSS COUNTRY
SKIS DON'T WORK SO GREAT
ON STEEP HILLS!
Chris yells NO, NO, NO, NO!
Martin yells LOOK OOOUUUTT! OOOFFF!
Martin lands on his head in the snow.
Chris says I'M STARTING TO
UNDERSTAND WHY WOLVERINES
HAVE SUCH BIG TERRITORIES.
THEY'RE BIGGISH
PREDATORS THAT DON'T HIBERNATE.
SO, IN WINTER WHEN
FOOD'S HARD TO GET,
THEY NEED TO COVER A LOT OF
GROUND IN SEARCH OF A MEAL.
Martin mumbles.
Chris says WHAT'RE YOU SAYING BRO?
SHOULD I LET YOU OUT OR NOT?
WE ARE IN A RACE YA KNOW.
I CAN'T JUST LEAVE MY BROTHER,
BUT I CAN GIVE
MYSELF A HEAD START.
Martin says GET ME OUT! HEY!
GET ME OUT! GET ME OUT!
HELLOOO!
Chris ties a rope to Martin's ankle and the other end to a group of branches.
Chris says HERE REINDEER,
TASTY PINE BRANCHES TO EAT.
THERE. THAT'S RIGHT.
JUST PICK UP THESE
BRANCHES AND PULL.
BUT TAKE YOUR TIME DOING IT.
SEE YOU AT THE FINISH LINE BRO.
In the Tortuga, Aviva says THIS COULD TAKE A WHILE.
WOLVERINES ARE LIKE
LITTLE POWERHOUSES.
THEY'RE SO STRONG
FOR THEIR SIZE.
THEY CAN PULL THINGS THAT ARE
ALMOST FIVE TIMES THEIR SIZE.
She pulls a rope trying to lift a heavy object.
Aviva says NO WAY. BUT WITH WOLVERINE POWER
AND CAN-DO ATTITUDE...
IT'S DOABLE.
She puts on robotic wolverine arms and lifts the object.
Aviva says NOW, WHERE IS EVERYBODY?
CHRIS IS IN THE LEAD, ALMOST
TO THE BOTTOM OF THE RANGE.
MARTIN IS NEXT. BUT,
OH BROTHER, HE'S..
A reindeer grabbing the branches pulls the rope.
Martin says YEAH THAT'S IT,
JUST A LITTLE PULL.
(struggling)
AH! BRR!
Aviva says HE'S FREE!
KOKI'S GOING STEADY
WITH THOSE SNOWSHOES.
AND JIMMY...
IS SLEEPING.
Jimmy Z says AH...SLEEP AND
SLIDE... SLEEP AND SLIDE...
SLEEPING...GRRR...
AH?
Wolves wake Jimmy up.
Jimmy says AH!
GET ME OUTTA THIS NIGHTMARE!
OH WAKE UP...WAKE UP...
I AM AWAKE
AND IN THE MIDDLE OF A
PACK OF WOLVES' DINNERTIME!
OK...UM...BE BRAVE JIMMY...
UM...UH...
BACK OFF WOLVES!
OH, IT'S WORKING.
YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT!
BACK OFF! GRRRR!
A wolverine stands behind Jimmy.
Jimmy says GRRR..RRR...GRRRR!
GRRR...THAT'S IT...
GO AWAY!...GRRR...
Aviva says JIMMY! JIMMY!
Jimmy Z says IT'S OK AVIVA.
I'M TAKING CARE OF THIS.
Aviva says NO YOU'RE NOT. SHE IS!
Jimmy Z turns and says WHO? WHOA!...UM...
THEN I'LL JUST STEP ASIDE.
Aviva says THAT WOLVERINE
IS SO HEADSTRONG,
SHE'S WILLING TO TAKE ON
A SMALL PACK OF WOLVES
TO STEAL THEIR FOOD.
Jimmy Z says I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
Aviva says THAT'S THE WOLVERINE
MENTALITY I GUESS.
THEIR TOUGHNESS IS
BIGGER THAN THEIR SIZE.
AND IT'S WORKING.
THE WOLVES HAVE PROBABLY
HAD ENOUGH TO EAT ANYWAY,
AND IT'S NOT WORTH MESSING
WITH THE POWER AND FURY
OF A HUNGRY WOLVERINE.
Jimmy Z says SHE DID IT!
Aviva says GOOD JOB, GULO.
Jimmy Z says THAT'S AMAZING!
I'LL JUST GRAB MY SLED
AND LEAVE YOU TO IT.
HUH? WHAT'RE YOU DOING
WITH THAT PIECE?
SAVING IT FOR LATER?
The wolverine buries a piece of a dead reindeer.
Jimmy says A NATURAL REFRIGERATOR.
GREAT IDEA!
NOW WHERE WAS I?
(yawns)
(snoring)
Aviva says JUST A FEW
FINISHING TOUCHES...
AND PRINT CREATURE POWER DISC.
HA! THIS IS GOING
TO BE A GOOD ONE.
CALLING ALL IRON
WOLVERINE CONTESTANTS.
COME IN IRON WOLVERINES!
The Brothers and Koki appear on the wall screen and say HI AVIVA!
Aviva says I HAVE AN
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT.
I JUST FINISHED MAKING
A WOLVERINE POWER DISC.
Chris says WHAT?
Martin says REALLY!
Koki says AMAZING!
Aviva says THE FIRST ONE TO GET IN
THE POSITION TO ACTIVATE IT,
CAN USE IT IN THE RACE!
Martin says WHOA...WOW!
THAT'S MOTIVATION!
Chris says WOLVERINE POWERS
WOULD WIN THE RACE FOR SURE!
Koki says OH YEAH.
THAT'S GONNA BE ME!
Aviva says WELL GET
TO IT THEN, GANG.
GOOD LUCK!
AND MAY THE BEST IRON
WOLVERINE WIN THE RACE!
Martin says GULO, WHERE ARE YOU!
Chris says I'M COMING!
Koki says HERE WOLVERINE!
Jimmy snores.
Koki says WOW, I WISH I HAD THE
STAMINA OF A WOLVERINE.
(panting)
I REALLY NEED TO FIND
GULO- OOF! HEY BUDDY!
IT'S YOU!
Gulo licks Koki's face.
Koki says I THOUGHT YOU WERE A WOLVERINE!
HEY! DO YOU WANT TO
GET BACK TO RUNNING?
I KNOW YOU DO!
SLIDE MODE ON.
DON'T COUNT ME OUT YET.
LET'S GOOOO!
Koki ties a rope to Gulo.
Koki says WITH SLED DOG POWERRR!
Martin says OH YEAH! I'M MAKING
PRETTY GOOD TIME NOW,
BUT WHOEVER FINDS GULO FIRST
IS GOING TO HAVE
A HUGE ADVANTAGE.
GULOOOOOO...GULOOOOO...
GULOOOOOO!
WHERE ARE YA?
(whoosh)
Chris says UH-OH! THE
ROCKET BOOSTERS.
I'M OUT OF POWER!
WHOOAA! OOOOF!
AW...THE LAST POWER
BOOST GETS ME EVERY TIME.
BRRRR!
I DON'T BELIEVE IT!
I'M IN A WOLVERINE DEN!
(laughter)
BABY WOLVERINES!
AW, YOU MUST BE GULO'S KITS.
NICE TO MEET YA'.
A baby wolverine bites his nose.
He says OH NO YOU DON'T.
OW! YEAH YOUR JAWS ARE PRETTY
TOUGH ALREADY LITTLE GUY.
Aviva says CHRIS. LOOKS LIKE
YOU HIT THE JACKPOT.
Chris says I SURE DID.
CHECK OUT THIS SNOW CAVE AVIVA.
Chris says MOTHER WOLVERINES
MAKE DENS LIKE THIS
UP TO 9 METERS DEEP IN THE SNOW.
Chris says IT'S NICE AND
WARM DOWN HERE TOO.
IT'S LIKE AN IGLOO.
Aviva says THOSE WOLVERINE KITS
SURE LOOK COZY IN THERE.
Chris says YEAH, THEY'LL
STAY IN HERE
'TIL THEY'RE A BIT OLDER.
Aviva says THEN THEY'LL HANG
AROUND WITH MOM AND LEARN
THE WAYS OF THE NORTH RIGHT?
Chris says OH YEAH.
FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS.
OR 'TIL THEY'RE READY TO
HEAD OUT ON THEIR OWN.
Aviva says THOSE LITTLE GUYS ARE
PACKED WITH WOLVERINE POWER.
Chris says WOLVERINE POWER!
YES!
I CAN ACTIVATE WOLVERINE
POWER FOR THE RACE!
Aviva says DO YOU WANT THIS?
Chris says YES! PLEASE!
Aviva says OK, TELEPORTER
ON... AAAAND...
CHRIS? WHAT'S THAT RUMBLING?
Chris says I DON'T KNOW.
IT SOUNDS LIKE...
(crashing)
He yells AN AVALANCHE!
LOOKOUT LITTLE WOLVERINES.
Aviva says I'M COMING,
CHRIS. HANG ON!
(Dramatic music plays)
Martin says GULO! I'M
GLAD I FOUND YOU.
HEY, YOU SEEM WORRIED.
WHAT'S GOING ON!
WHAT ARE YOU SMELLING FOR?
(sniffing)
SOMETHING'S DOWN THERE?
Aviva says MARTIN! IT'S
CHRIS AND GULO'S KITS.
THEY WERE BURIED
BY AN AVALANCHE!
Martin says WHAT?
Aviva says HERE.
Aviva throws the disc to Martin.
Martin says WOLVERINE POWER DISC!
I'M ON IT. INSERT
WOLVERINE POWER DISC.
TOUCH WOLVERINE AND
ACTIVATE WOLVERINE POWER!
He morphs into a wolverine.
Martin says WOLVERINE POWER! WOW!
I FEEL FEARLESS.
LIKE A COMPACT
BUNDLE OF RAW POWER!
TO THE CREATURE RESCUE!
Martin and Gulo dig in the snow.
Aviva says KEEP IT
UP MARTIN AND GULO.
RAPIDO! DIG, DIG!
Chris says OH NO! WE'RE
RUNNING OUT OF AIR.
I HOPE THEY'RE COMING FOR US.
HANG TOUGH, LITTLE GUYS.
Aviva says HURRY! THEY CAN'T
LAST LONG UNDER THERE.
Martin says COMING BRO!
WOLVERINE POWER
DON'T FAIL ME NOW!
THESE PAWS AND CLAWS
CAN REALLY MOVE SOME SNOW.
WAIT. I FOUND SOMETHING.
Chris says AHHHHH!
YEAH!
Aviva says WE GOT THEM!
THEY'RE SAFE!
Martin says WE DID IT GULO.
YEAH!
Chris says THEY'RE SAFE.
EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM.
Koki says SEE YA LATER SLOWPOKES.
MEET YOU AT THE
FINISH LIINEEE!
Martin says WHAT? LET'S GO!
YEAH, WOLVERINE POWER WILL
CARRY ME TO THE FINISH.
I'M NOT EVEN TIRED.
SORRY CHRIS!
Chris says AWWW! I'M NEVER GOING
TO BE ABLE TO KEEP UP.
AND NOW GULO'S RAIDING
MY FOOD PACK?
OH NO YA DON'T.
WOLVERINES ARE SNEAKY.
WHOAAAA! AND STRONG!
AND FAAAAST!
Gulo runs with Chris's backpack dragging him down the snow.
Chris says HEY, I KNOW YOU DRAG CARCASSES
ALMOST FIVE TIMES YOUR WEIGHT,
BUT I'M NOT A CARCASS!
Martin says WE'LL YOU'RE
DEFINITELY DEAD WEIGHT BRO.
Chris says OH YEAH! GO, GULO...GO!
(Funky racing music plays)
Koki says GO BUDDY GO!
THEY'RE GAINING ON US!
Aviva says IT'S GOING TO COME
RIGHT DOWN TO THE FINISH.
BUT WAIT. THERE'S
SOMEONE UP AHEAD.
JIMMY?
(snoring)
Chris says GOTTA..
Martin says CATCH..
Koki says JIMMY..
Chris says I'M...
Koki says GONNA...
Martin says WINNNN...
Aviva says IT'S JIMMY! BY A HAIR!
Martin says JIMMY WON?
Chris says BUT...HE'S ASLEEP!
Aviva says JIMMY, WAKE UP! YOU WON!
Jimmy Z says HUH?
Aviva says YOU WON! YOU'RE
THE IRON WOLVERINE!
Jimmy Z says I DID? I AM?
OH YEAH, I AM!
OOF! THAT'S RIGHT.
THE IRON WOLVERINE,
RIGHT HERE, FOLKS.
The Brothers and Koki laugh.
Chris says WAY TO GO JIMMY.
Martin says YOU'RE THE GREATEST
CROSS COUNTRY TREKKER
OF THE NORTH.
The Brothers and Koki say YAY
JIMMY, HIP-HIP-HORRAY!
Jimmy Z says GULO, YOU AND ME. HA!
WE'RE IRON WOLVERINES.
Chris says AND THAT'S CREATURE
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
THE IRON WOLVERINE
RACE IS COMPLETE
AND WE MET ONE OF THE
COOLEST CREATURES OF THE NORTH.
Martin says AND WE LEARNED
A LOT ABOUT TERRITORIES.
THAT SOME ANIMALS,
LIKE WOLVERINES,
HAVE ENORMOUS TERRITORIES.
Koki says AND OTHER ANIMALS LIKE
REINDEER LIVE IN SMALLER AREAS.
Aviva says IT'S ALL BASED ON
HOW BIG AN AREA THEY NEED
IN ORDER TO FIND ALL THE
THINGS THEY NEED TO SURVIVE.
Jimmy Z says WE DID ALL THAT
WHILE I WAS SLEEPING?
Aviva says WE SURE DID JIMMY.
Jimmy Z says AHEM.
I'M NOT JIMMY.
I'M THE IRON WOLVERINE!
Aviva and Koki say WOO HOO!
Koki says YES!
Now the show turns back to real life.
Martin says SO THEY'RE
ROAMING ACROSS
THE RUGGED TERRAIN
OF THE GREAT NORTH.
Chris says WOLVERINES ARE
A POWERFUL PREDATOR
WITH OUTSIZED STRENGTH
AND A TOUGH "DON'T
MESS WITH ME" ATTITUDE.
WOLVERINES HAVE A
GREAT SENSE OF SMELL.
THAT'S HOW THEY FIND
A LOT OF THEIR PREY.
THEY ROAM AROUND
THEIR TERRITORY,
SMELLING, SMELLING
FOR ANY SIGN OF PREY.
SOMETIMES, WHAT THEY DO WHEN
THEY'RE HUNTING BIG PREY
LIKE MOOSE OR
CARIBOU OR REINDEER,
IS THEY'LL JUMP FROM A TREE LIMB
ONTO THE BACK OF THE MOOSE
AND TAKE IT DOWN.
IT'S AMAZING.
BUT THEY ALSO EAT CARRION.
CARRION IS MEAT FROM ANIMALS
THAT HAVE ALREADY DIED.
Chris says AND IN THE WINTER,
THEY CAN SMELL CARRION
UNDER TWO METERS OF SNOW.
Chris says WOLVERINES ARE UP AND
ACTIVE ALL WINTER LONG,
THROUGH SOME OF THE COLDEST,
HARSHEST WEATHER.
BEARS GO INTO A DEEP SLEEP
FOR MOST OF THE WINTER,
BUT NOT THE WOLVERINE.
THE WOLVERINE TOUGHS IT OUT
AND IS ABLE TO FIND FOOD
WITH EITHER IT'S
AMAZING HUNTING SKILL
OR BY UNCOVERING ANIMALS
THAT HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO
SURVIVE THE COLD WINTER.
SO WHATEVER A WOLVERINE
FINDS, WHETHER IT BE...
WHOA...HEY...WOLVERINE
COMING THROUGH!
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY BUDDY.
Martin says THEY'RE ONE TOUGH
CREATURE WITH A POWERFUL BITE.
THE WOLVERINE HAS A BITE
THAT CAN CRUSH THROUGH
TEETH AND BONE.
AND ROCKS?
Chris says THEY CAN'T
BITE THROUGH ROCKS,
BUT WHAT'S HE DOING WITH IT?
Martin says HE'S TAKING
IT SOMEWHERE.
IT'S LIKE HE'S CACHING IT.
Chris says CACHING. YOU MEAN
LIKE HIDING FOOD FOR LATER?
Martin says YEAH. THE CACHING
INSTINCT IN A WOLVERINE
IS EXTREMELY POWERFUL
BECAUSE IT'S A
MATTER OF SURVIVAL.
THERE IS REAL LIMITED
FOOD SOMETIMES OF THE YEAR,
SO THEY HAVE TO CACHE THEIR
FOOD ANY CHANCE THEY GET,
SO THEY COME BACK
AND GET IT LATER.
THAT'S WHY THIS WOLVERINE
IS CARRYING ROCKS.
ITS INSTINCT TO CACHE.
Chris says SO NEXT TIME YOU'RE
OUT ON A COLD HARSH DAY,
THINK OF THE WOLVERINE.
Martin says SOMEWHERE OUT THERE, IN
SOME OF THE MOST RUGGED TERRAIN
AND HARSHEST WEATHER ON EARTH,
THE WOLVERINE IS
TOUGHING IT OUT.
Chris says ONE OF THE GREATEST
SURVIVALISTS ON THE PLANET.
KEEP ON CREATURE ADVENTURING.
Martin says WE'LL SEE YOU
ON THE CREATURE TRAIL.
Music plays as the end credits roll.

Then, a globe spins and Alaska appears highlighted.
The Kratt brothers appear. Chris wears a green shirt and Martin wears a blue shirt.
Martin says AROUND THE WORLD
IN THE EXTREME NORTH
IS A CREATURE THAT THRIVES
IN HARSH WILDERNESS.
WE'RE HERE IN ALASKA.
The brothers walk by a lake.
Chris says IT'S US
THE KRATT BROTHERS.
I'M CHRIS.
Martin says I'M MARTIN. WHEN
YOU THINK OF WEASELS,
YOU USUALLY THINK
OF SMALL, SKINNY,
FAST MOVING CREATURES.
LIKE SHORT-TAILED ERMINES,
TREE DWELLING PINE MARTENS,
AND WATER LOVING MINK.
Chris says BUT THERE'S ONE
PARTICULAR MEMBER
OF THE WEASEL FAMILY
THAT'S STOCKY,
STRONG AND REALLY, REALLY TOUGH.
IT'S A TRUE PREDATOR
OF THE NORTH.
Martin says OH YEAH!
Chris says THEY'RE IN ANY
TERRAIN. IN THE SHORES,
THE MOUNTAINS OR IN THE WOODS.
Martin says THIS IS A WOLVERINE.
IT'S NOT A WOLF,
IT'S NOT A SMALL BEAR.
Chris says IT'S ACTUALLY A
MEMBER OF THE WEASEL FAMILY.
A MUSTELID, AND WOLVERINES
HAVE AWESOME CREATURE POWERS.
WOLVERINES ARE TRUE
NORTHERN CREATURES.
THEY LIVE IN BOREAL FORESTS, FAR
UP NORTH, ALL AROUND THE GLOBE,
WHERE THEIR INCREDIBLE ENDURANCE
LET'S THEM CONTROL
MASSIVE TERRITORIES.
Martin says WOLVERINES ARE
LONG DISTANCE RUNNERS.
THEY COVER A LOT OF GROUND.
A wolverine runs across a snow landscape.
Martin says A WOLVERINE'S
TERRITORY CAN BE
HUNDREDS OF SQUARE KILOMETERS.
Martin says THEY'RE
NOT A HUGE ANIMAL.
NOT COMPARED TO WOLVES
OR GRIZZLY BEARS,
BUT THESE WOLVERINES ARE SO
TOUGH, SO FEROCIOUS, SO BRAVE
AND SO STRONG, WITH
A POWERFUL BITE,
THEY ARE WILLING TO TAKE
ON A WOLF OR A GRIZZLY BEAR
THAT'S MANY MANY TIMES ITS SIZE.
THE WOLVERINE IS ONE
POWER PACKED CREATURE.
IMAGINE IF WE COULD
KEEP UP WITH THIS
AWESOME NORTHERN POWERHOUSE.
Chris says IMAGINE IF WE
HAD WOLVERINE POWERS.
The Brothers say WHAT IF?
The brothers jump and turn into cartoons. In animation, a paw print appears, followed by a map, and then the brothers swim under the sea and swing from jungle vines.
A song plays and says ON ADVENTURE WITH THE COOLEST CREATURES, FROM THE OCEANS TO THE TREES, THE BROTHERS KRATT ARE GOING PLACES YOU NEVER GET TO SEE, HANGING WITH THEIR CREATURE FRIENDS. GET READY, IT'S THE HOUR, WE'RE GONNA SAVE SOME ANIMALS TODAY WITH CREATURE POWER! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD!
Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy Z send them creature disks from Tortuga, the ship. The brothers place the disks in their suits and morph into superheroes with animal legs and wings. Then, they run, swim and fly with animals in the wild.
The song continues
CHEETAH SPEED AND LIZARD GLIDE, FALCON FLIGHT AND LION PRIDE, GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS. GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS!
The name of the episode appears. It reads "Iron Wolverine."
The team travels in the Tortuga.
Jimmy Z says IT'S PRETTY
WINTERY HERE
IN THE SCANDINAVIAN SUBARCTIC.
Koki says I'M GOING TO BE
CENTERED AND READY TO GO.
Martin hangs upside down doing abdominal crunches.
Martin says 1001...
1002...
1003...
YUP, BIG DAY TOMORROW...1004
Jimmy Z says I LIKE LOADING
UP ON CARBS, BUT,
NOT SURE I'M GOING TO
LIKE THE RACE TOMORROW.
Martin says IT'LL BE FUN, JIMMY.
AN ADVENTURE.
Aviva says YEAH, CHRIS
SURE IS EXCITED ABOUT IT.
HE'S BEEN PLANNING NON-STOP.
Chris stands next to a big race course.
Chris says THIS IS GOING
TO BE THE GREATEST RACE
THE NORTH HAS EVER SEEN!
Martin says WOW, THAT'S
THE RACE COURSE BRO?
UP AND DOWN ALL
THOSE MOUNTAIN RANGES?
THROUGH SUCH A VAST WILDERNESS?
Chris says YUP! YOU'VE HEARD
OF THE IDITAROD RIGHT?
EPIC SLED DOG RACE.
AND THE VASALOPPET
RACE IN SWEDEN.
Race images appear on the wall screen.
He continues ONE OF THE GREATEST CROSS
COUNTRY SKI RACES IN THE WORLD.
AND IRON MAN RACES THAT COMBINE
SWIMMING, BIKING, AND RUNNING.
WELL, I'M CALLING THIS
WILDERNESS RACE...
THE IRON WOLVERINE!
Jimmy Z says SOUNDS HARD.
Koki says SAY WHAT?
WOLVE- WHAT?
Chris says WOLVERINE. THIS
RACE IS NAMED AFTER
ONE OF THE GREATEST, TOUGHEST
ADVENTURERS OF THE NORTH.
The Brothers say THE WOLVERINE!
Martin says OH THEY'RE SO AWESOME.
THE LARGEST MEMBER OF THE
WEASEL FAMILY THAT LIVE ON LAND.
TOUGH, MUSCULAR, AND FULL
OF CONFIDENCE AND POWER
THAT'S EVEN BIGGER
THAN THEIR SIZE.
Chris says AND THEY'RE
ALWAYS ON THE MOVE.
COVERING DOZENS OF
KILOMETERS A DAY.
Chris says THIS WHOLE AREA
CAN BE THE TERRITORY
OF A SINGLE WOLVERINE.
Aviva says WOW. WHY
SUCH A BIG TERRITORY?
Martin says THE TERRITORY OF
AN ANIMAL IS BASICALLY
THE AMOUNT OF SPACE IT NEEDS
TO HAVE ENOUGH FOOD AND
RESOURCES TO SURVIVE.
Chris says SOME ANIMALS,
LIKE SQUIRRELS,
GET EVERYTHING THEY
NEED FROM A SMALL AREA.
Jimmy Z says ME TOO.
He runs to hug the fridge and says I NEED'S RIGHT HERE.
Martin says OTHER ANIMALS,
USUALLY PREDATORS,
NEED BIGGER AREAS.
Chris says SO WHILE WE'RE ON THIS
RACE, KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED
FOR THE SUPER RARE WOLVERINE.
AND MAYBE WE CAN FIGURE OUT
WHY THEY NEED SO MUCH SPACE.
TOMORROW WE RIDE.
AND MAY THE BEST TREKKER WIN
THE IRON WOLVERINE TROPHY.
Jimmy Z says JUST SURVIVING
WOULD BE A WIN FOR ME.
Now Chris stands in a snowy mountain.
Chris says IT'S ALMOST
STARTING TIME.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE
TRAVEL MODE EVERYONE CHOSE.
IT'S...KOKI!
Koki slides down using snowshoes.
(whoosh)
(splat)
Chris says BRRRRRR!
SNOWSHOES!
Koki says PERFECT FOR ALL
KINDS OF SNOWY TERRAIN.
Chris says AWESOME CHOICE KOKI!
Koki stands on one leg and says NOW IT'S TIME
TO ACCESS MY CHI.
Martin says WAHOOO! HERE I COME!
Chris says CROSS COUNTRY SKIS.
KEEP KICKING BRO!
Martin says OR NOT.
CAUSE I BROUGHT A FRIEND.
HA HA! YEAH!
A Siberian dog pulls Martin as he skies.
Martin says IT'S CALLED SKIJORING.
YAHOO!
Koki says I GUESS SOME PEOPLE CAN'T
DO IT ON THEIR OWN POWER.
Chris says AND SOME PEOPLE
DON'T WANT TO USE ANY
OF THEIR OWN POWER.
Jimmy Z appears driving a rocket sled.
Martin says A ROCKET SLED!
Jimmy Z says HEY-O! READY TO GO!
Martin says WHAT ABOUT YOU
CHRIS? WHAT'D YOU CHOOSE?
Chris says TA DA!
Martin says SNOWBOARD!
GOOD FOR DOWNHILL, BUT WHAT
ABOUT FLATS AND UPHILL?
Chris says IT'S AN ESNOWBOARD.
ELECTRIC BATTERY BOOSTERS.
Martin says OH! COOL!
Flying in the Tortuga, Aviva says ARE THE
CONTESTANTS READY?
The Brothers say YEAH!
Koki says ALL SET!
Jimmy Z says LET'S DO THIS!
Aviva says ON YOUR MARK...
GET SET...GO!
Jimmy Z says THIS IS GOING
TO BE A LONG RACE.
HELLO AUTOPILOT.
Jimmy Z presses a button and lies down.
Aviva checks the race on the model court.
Aviva says OK, EVERYONE IS
OFF TO A GOOD START...
WELL, EXCEPT JIMMY.
CHECKING CHRIS'S PROGRESS.
Chris says HA HA! WAHOO!
THIS BRINGS SNOWBOARDING
TO A NEW LEVEL!
YEAH!
Aviva says HE'S REALLY MOVING.
OK, HOW ABOUT MARTIN?
Martin says HAHA! WHOOO!
LET'S WORK TOGETHER PAL AND
BRING THIS TROPHY HOME.
Aviva says AND KOKI?
(upbeat racing music plays)
Running, Koki says SLOW AND
STEADY WINS THE RACE.
IT IS CALLED THE IRON WOLVERINE,
SO I'M TRAVELING
WOLVERINE STYLE.
MY SNOWSHOES ARE
LIKE GIANT PAWS.
THEY SPREAD OUT MY WEIGHT,
SO I DON'T SINK DEEP DOWN.
I GLIDE OVER THE SNOW AND
SAVE ENERGY, WOLVERINE-STYLE.
A wolverine runs behind Koki.
Aviva says A WOLVERINE!
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!
LOOK HOW IT'S SCALING
THAT SNOWY HILL NO PROBLEM.
Aviva says AND THEY CAN COVER
50 KILOMETERS IN A DAY.
Aviva says THEY ARE AMAZING!
KOKI! KOKI! QUICK,
LOOK BEHIND YOU!
Koki says WHAT!?
I DON'T SEE ANYTHING.
AVIVA, YOU'RE BREAKING MY PACE.
GOTTA GO!
Aviva says THEY ARE MYSTERIOUS
AND HARD TO SPOT.
WOLVERINES ARE INCREIBLE!
I'VE GOT TO MAKE A
WOLVERINE POWER SUIT.
(slow paced music plays)
Martin says WHEW! WE GOT TO
THE MOUNTAIN RANGE FAST,
BUT GETTING UP IT IS ROUGH!
(strange growling)
OH... WHAT IS THAT?
IT'S...COMING THIS WAY!
HIDE! AAH!
He whispers LET'S GET A LOOK
WITH THE MINI-CAM,
NOTHING. I DON'T SEE ANYTHING.
WHOA...AAAH...
(crack)
CHECKING RECORDING.
AMAZING!
A WOLVERINE!
OH, YOU'RE TOUGH.
BUT DON'T WORRY.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO TRY TO TAKE
WHATEVER YOUR DIGGING FOR.
WHAT ARE YOU DIGGING FOR?
Aviva appears projected on a holo screen.
Aviva says THOSE HUGE PAWS CAN
REALLY MOVE A LOT OF SNOW.
Martin says I THINK I
KNOW WHAT SHE'S AFTER.
HOLD ON AVIVA.
SCANNING UNDER THE SNOW.
THERE! A LEMMING!
SHE'S TRYING TO DIG
OUT THAT LEMMING.
Aviva says YOU'RE
KIDDING ME!
THAT'S HOW SHE GETS
FOOD IN THE WINTER?
Martin says IT'S ONE
OF THE MANY WAYS.
WOLVERINES WILL EAT
ANYTHING THEY CAN GET.
THAT'S WHY THE SCIENTIFIC
NAME FOR A WOLVERINE IS...
UM...AH...WHAT IS IT?
Chris says GULO GULO.
(laughter)
Chris snowboards past them.
Martin says YOU'RE RIGHT.
Chris says LATER BROOOOO!
Martin says THANKS CHRIS. THAT'S IT.
GULO GULO. LATIN FOR GLUTTON.
IF YOU'RE A GLUTTON IT
MEANS YOU LIKE TO EAT A LOT.
WOLVERINES WILL EAT
ANY KIND OF ANIMAL,
FROM MICE TO RABBITS TO
MOOSE AND REINDEER.
OH, THIS IS EASY.
I'LL CALL YOU GULO.
Aviva says WELL, GULO'S GETTING
AWFULLY CLOSE TO THAT LEMMING.
Martin says NO SHE'S NOT.
RUN, LEMMING, RUN!
(scampering music plays)
UH-OH.
NOW WE GOTTA...RUN!
AAH!
The Siberian dog runs away.
Martin says OH, THERE GOES
MY TREKKING BUDDY.
Aviva says DON'T WORRY. I'LL
MAKE SURE HE GETS HOME SAFE.
Martin says THANKS.
I GOTTA KEEP RACING.
I HAVE SOME CATCHING UP TO DO.
Meanwhile, Chris snowboards and says WAHOOO!
DOWNHILL IS WHERE
I TAKE THE LEAD!
YE HA!
He stops and says WHOA...REINDEER!
THESE CREATURES ARE
ACTIVE ALL WINTER TOO,
BUT DON'T NEED TO MOVE
AROUND SUCH LARGE AREAS
BECAUSE THEY EAT
PLANTS AND LICHEN.
IN FACT, OVER 100 REINDEER
CAN FIT INTO THE TERRITORY
OF A SINGLE WOLVERINE.
WHOA! THERE'S THAT
SINGLE WOLVERINE!
OH, SNEAK ATTACK FROM THE TREES!
AND THEY'RE NOT
AFRAID TO TACKLE PREY
MORE THAN FIVE TIMES THEIR SIZE.
Martin says WHOOAAA!
Chris says OH NO!
MARTIN SLOW DOWN. STOOOOOP!
Skiing out of control, Martin yells CROSS COUNTRY
SKIS DON'T WORK SO GREAT
ON STEEP HILLS!
Chris yells NO, NO, NO, NO!
Martin yells LOOK OOOUUUTT! OOOFFF!
Martin lands on his head in the snow.
Chris says I'M STARTING TO
UNDERSTAND WHY WOLVERINES
HAVE SUCH BIG TERRITORIES.
THEY'RE BIGGISH
PREDATORS THAT DON'T HIBERNATE.
SO, IN WINTER WHEN
FOOD'S HARD TO GET,
THEY NEED TO COVER A LOT OF
GROUND IN SEARCH OF A MEAL.
Martin mumbles.
Chris says WHAT'RE YOU SAYING BRO?
SHOULD I LET YOU OUT OR NOT?
WE ARE IN A RACE YA KNOW.
I CAN'T JUST LEAVE MY BROTHER,
BUT I CAN GIVE
MYSELF A HEAD START.
Martin says GET ME OUT! HEY!
GET ME OUT! GET ME OUT!
HELLOOO!
Chris ties a rope to Martin's ankle and the other end to a group of branches.
Chris says HERE REINDEER,
TASTY PINE BRANCHES TO EAT.
THERE. THAT'S RIGHT.
JUST PICK UP THESE
BRANCHES AND PULL.
BUT TAKE YOUR TIME DOING IT.
SEE YOU AT THE FINISH LINE BRO.
In the Tortuga, Aviva says THIS COULD TAKE A WHILE.
WOLVERINES ARE LIKE
LITTLE POWERHOUSES.
THEY'RE SO STRONG
FOR THEIR SIZE.
THEY CAN PULL THINGS THAT ARE
ALMOST FIVE TIMES THEIR SIZE.
She pulls a rope trying to lift a heavy object.
Aviva says NO WAY. BUT WITH WOLVERINE POWER
AND CAN-DO ATTITUDE...
IT'S DOABLE.
She puts on robotic wolverine arms and lifts the object.
Aviva says NOW, WHERE IS EVERYBODY?
CHRIS IS IN THE LEAD, ALMOST
TO THE BOTTOM OF THE RANGE.
MARTIN IS NEXT. BUT,
OH BROTHER, HE'S..
A reindeer grabbing the branches pulls the rope.
Martin says YEAH THAT'S IT,
JUST A LITTLE PULL.
(struggling)
AH! BRR!
Aviva says HE'S FREE!
KOKI'S GOING STEADY
WITH THOSE SNOWSHOES.
AND JIMMY...
IS SLEEPING.
Jimmy Z says AH...SLEEP AND
SLIDE... SLEEP AND SLIDE...
SLEEPING...GRRR...
AH?
Wolves wake Jimmy up.
Jimmy says AH!
GET ME OUTTA THIS NIGHTMARE!
OH WAKE UP...WAKE UP...
I AM AWAKE
AND IN THE MIDDLE OF A
PACK OF WOLVES' DINNERTIME!
OK...UM...BE BRAVE JIMMY...
UM...UH...
BACK OFF WOLVES!
OH, IT'S WORKING.
YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT!
BACK OFF! GRRRR!
A wolverine stands behind Jimmy.
Jimmy says GRRR..RRR...GRRRR!
GRRR...THAT'S IT...
GO AWAY!...GRRR...
Aviva says JIMMY! JIMMY!
Jimmy Z says IT'S OK AVIVA.
I'M TAKING CARE OF THIS.
Aviva says NO YOU'RE NOT. SHE IS!
Jimmy Z turns and says WHO? WHOA!...UM...
THEN I'LL JUST STEP ASIDE.
Aviva says THAT WOLVERINE
IS SO HEADSTRONG,
SHE'S WILLING TO TAKE ON
A SMALL PACK OF WOLVES
TO STEAL THEIR FOOD.
Jimmy Z says I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
Aviva says THAT'S THE WOLVERINE
MENTALITY I GUESS.
THEIR TOUGHNESS IS
BIGGER THAN THEIR SIZE.
AND IT'S WORKING.
THE WOLVES HAVE PROBABLY
HAD ENOUGH TO EAT ANYWAY,
AND IT'S NOT WORTH MESSING
WITH THE POWER AND FURY
OF A HUNGRY WOLVERINE.
Jimmy Z says SHE DID IT!
Aviva says GOOD JOB, GULO.
Jimmy Z says THAT'S AMAZING!
I'LL JUST GRAB MY SLED
AND LEAVE YOU TO IT.
HUH? WHAT'RE YOU DOING
WITH THAT PIECE?
SAVING IT FOR LATER?
The wolverine buries a piece of a dead reindeer.
Jimmy says A NATURAL REFRIGERATOR.
GREAT IDEA!
NOW WHERE WAS I?
(yawns)
(snoring)
Aviva says JUST A FEW
FINISHING TOUCHES...
AND PRINT CREATURE POWER DISC.
HA! THIS IS GOING
TO BE A GOOD ONE.
CALLING ALL IRON
WOLVERINE CONTESTANTS.
COME IN IRON WOLVERINES!
The Brothers and Koki appear on the wall screen and say HI AVIVA!
Aviva says I HAVE AN
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT.
I JUST FINISHED MAKING
A WOLVERINE POWER DISC.
Chris says WHAT?
Martin says REALLY!
Koki says AMAZING!
Aviva says THE FIRST ONE TO GET IN
THE POSITION TO ACTIVATE IT,
CAN USE IT IN THE RACE!
Martin says WHOA...WOW!
THAT'S MOTIVATION!
Chris says WOLVERINE POWERS
WOULD WIN THE RACE FOR SURE!
Koki says OH YEAH.
THAT'S GONNA BE ME!
Aviva says WELL GET
TO IT THEN, GANG.
GOOD LUCK!
AND MAY THE BEST IRON
WOLVERINE WIN THE RACE!
Martin says GULO, WHERE ARE YOU!
Chris says I'M COMING!
Koki says HERE WOLVERINE!
Jimmy snores.
Koki says WOW, I WISH I HAD THE
STAMINA OF A WOLVERINE.
(panting)
I REALLY NEED TO FIND
GULO- OOF! HEY BUDDY!
IT'S YOU!
Gulo licks Koki's face.
Koki says I THOUGHT YOU WERE A WOLVERINE!
HEY! DO YOU WANT TO
GET BACK TO RUNNING?
I KNOW YOU DO!
SLIDE MODE ON.
DON'T COUNT ME OUT YET.
LET'S GOOOO!
Koki ties a rope to Gulo.
Koki says WITH SLED DOG POWERRR!
Martin says OH YEAH! I'M MAKING
PRETTY GOOD TIME NOW,
BUT WHOEVER FINDS GULO FIRST
IS GOING TO HAVE
A HUGE ADVANTAGE.
GULOOOOOO...GULOOOOO...
GULOOOOOO!
WHERE ARE YA?
(whoosh)
Chris says UH-OH! THE
ROCKET BOOSTERS.
I'M OUT OF POWER!
WHOOAA! OOOOF!
AW...THE LAST POWER
BOOST GETS ME EVERY TIME.
BRRRR!
I DON'T BELIEVE IT!
I'M IN A WOLVERINE DEN!
(laughter)
BABY WOLVERINES!
AW, YOU MUST BE GULO'S KITS.
NICE TO MEET YA'.
A baby wolverine bites his nose.
He says OH NO YOU DON'T.
OW! YEAH YOUR JAWS ARE PRETTY
TOUGH ALREADY LITTLE GUY.
Aviva says CHRIS. LOOKS LIKE
YOU HIT THE JACKPOT.
Chris says I SURE DID.
CHECK OUT THIS SNOW CAVE AVIVA.
Chris says MOTHER WOLVERINES
MAKE DENS LIKE THIS
UP TO 9 METERS DEEP IN THE SNOW.
Chris says IT'S NICE AND
WARM DOWN HERE TOO.
IT'S LIKE AN IGLOO.
Aviva says THOSE WOLVERINE KITS
SURE LOOK COZY IN THERE.
Chris says YEAH, THEY'LL
STAY IN HERE
'TIL THEY'RE A BIT OLDER.
Aviva says THEN THEY'LL HANG
AROUND WITH MOM AND LEARN
THE WAYS OF THE NORTH RIGHT?
Chris says OH YEAH.
FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS.
OR 'TIL THEY'RE READY TO
HEAD OUT ON THEIR OWN.
Aviva says THOSE LITTLE GUYS ARE
PACKED WITH WOLVERINE POWER.
Chris says WOLVERINE POWER!
YES!
I CAN ACTIVATE WOLVERINE
POWER FOR THE RACE!
Aviva says DO YOU WANT THIS?
Chris says YES! PLEASE!
Aviva says OK, TELEPORTER
ON... AAAAND...
CHRIS? WHAT'S THAT RUMBLING?
Chris says I DON'T KNOW.
IT SOUNDS LIKE...
(crashing)
He yells AN AVALANCHE!
LOOKOUT LITTLE WOLVERINES.
Aviva says I'M COMING,
CHRIS. HANG ON!
(Dramatic music plays)
Martin says GULO! I'M
GLAD I FOUND YOU.
HEY, YOU SEEM WORRIED.
WHAT'S GOING ON!
WHAT ARE YOU SMELLING FOR?
(sniffing)
SOMETHING'S DOWN THERE?
Aviva says MARTIN! IT'S
CHRIS AND GULO'S KITS.
THEY WERE BURIED
BY AN AVALANCHE!
Martin says WHAT?
Aviva says HERE.
Aviva throws the disc to Martin.
Martin says WOLVERINE POWER DISC!
I'M ON IT. INSERT
WOLVERINE POWER DISC.
TOUCH WOLVERINE AND
ACTIVATE WOLVERINE POWER!
He morphs into a wolverine.
Martin says WOLVERINE POWER! WOW!
I FEEL FEARLESS.
LIKE A COMPACT
BUNDLE OF RAW POWER!
TO THE CREATURE RESCUE!
Martin and Gulo dig in the snow.
Aviva says KEEP IT
UP MARTIN AND GULO.
RAPIDO! DIG, DIG!
Chris says OH NO! WE'RE
RUNNING OUT OF AIR.
I HOPE THEY'RE COMING FOR US.
HANG TOUGH, LITTLE GUYS.
Aviva says HURRY! THEY CAN'T
LAST LONG UNDER THERE.
Martin says COMING BRO!
WOLVERINE POWER
DON'T FAIL ME NOW!
THESE PAWS AND CLAWS
CAN REALLY MOVE SOME SNOW.
WAIT. I FOUND SOMETHING.
Chris says AHHHHH!
YEAH!
Aviva says WE GOT THEM!
THEY'RE SAFE!
Martin says WE DID IT GULO.
YEAH!
Chris says THEY'RE SAFE.
EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM.
Koki says SEE YA LATER SLOWPOKES.
MEET YOU AT THE
FINISH LIINEEE!
Martin says WHAT? LET'S GO!
YEAH, WOLVERINE POWER WILL
CARRY ME TO THE FINISH.
I'M NOT EVEN TIRED.
SORRY CHRIS!
Chris says AWWW! I'M NEVER GOING
TO BE ABLE TO KEEP UP.
AND NOW GULO'S RAIDING
MY FOOD PACK?
OH NO YA DON'T.
WOLVERINES ARE SNEAKY.
WHOAAAA! AND STRONG!
AND FAAAAST!
Gulo runs with Chris's backpack dragging him down the snow.
Chris says HEY, I KNOW YOU DRAG CARCASSES
ALMOST FIVE TIMES YOUR WEIGHT,
BUT I'M NOT A CARCASS!
Martin says WE'LL YOU'RE
DEFINITELY DEAD WEIGHT BRO.
Chris says OH YEAH! GO, GULO...GO!
(Funky racing music plays)
Koki says GO BUDDY GO!
THEY'RE GAINING ON US!
Aviva says IT'S GOING TO COME
RIGHT DOWN TO THE FINISH.
BUT WAIT. THERE'S
SOMEONE UP AHEAD.
JIMMY?
(snoring)
Chris says GOTTA..
Martin says CATCH..
Koki says JIMMY..
Chris says I'M...
Koki says GONNA...
Martin says WINNNN...
Aviva says IT'S JIMMY! BY A HAIR!
Martin says JIMMY WON?
Chris says BUT...HE'S ASLEEP!
Aviva says JIMMY, WAKE UP! YOU WON!
Jimmy Z says HUH?
Aviva says YOU WON! YOU'RE
THE IRON WOLVERINE!
Jimmy Z says I DID? I AM?
OH YEAH, I AM!
OOF! THAT'S RIGHT.
THE IRON WOLVERINE,
RIGHT HERE, FOLKS.
The Brothers and Koki laugh.
Chris says WAY TO GO JIMMY.
Martin says YOU'RE THE GREATEST
CROSS COUNTRY TREKKER
OF THE NORTH.
The Brothers and Koki say YAY
JIMMY, HIP-HIP-HORRAY!
Jimmy Z says GULO, YOU AND ME. HA!
WE'RE IRON WOLVERINES.
Chris says AND THAT'S CREATURE
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
THE IRON WOLVERINE
RACE IS COMPLETE
AND WE MET ONE OF THE
COOLEST CREATURES OF THE NORTH.
Martin says AND WE LEARNED
A LOT ABOUT TERRITORIES.
THAT SOME ANIMALS,
LIKE WOLVERINES,
HAVE ENORMOUS TERRITORIES.
Koki says AND OTHER ANIMALS LIKE
REINDEER LIVE IN SMALLER AREAS.
Aviva says IT'S ALL BASED ON
HOW BIG AN AREA THEY NEED
IN ORDER TO FIND ALL THE
THINGS THEY NEED TO SURVIVE.
Jimmy Z says WE DID ALL THAT
WHILE I WAS SLEEPING?
Aviva says WE SURE DID JIMMY.
Jimmy Z says AHEM.
I'M NOT JIMMY.
I'M THE IRON WOLVERINE!
Aviva and Koki say WOO HOO!
Koki says YES!
Now the show turns back to real life.
Martin says SO THEY'RE
ROAMING ACROSS
THE RUGGED TERRAIN
OF THE GREAT NORTH.
Chris says WOLVERINES ARE
A POWERFUL PREDATOR
WITH OUTSIZED STRENGTH
AND A TOUGH "DON'T
MESS WITH ME" ATTITUDE.
WOLVERINES HAVE A
GREAT SENSE OF SMELL.
THAT'S HOW THEY FIND
A LOT OF THEIR PREY.
THEY ROAM AROUND
THEIR TERRITORY,
SMELLING, SMELLING
FOR ANY SIGN OF PREY.
SOMETIMES, WHAT THEY DO WHEN
THEY'RE HUNTING BIG PREY
LIKE MOOSE OR
CARIBOU OR REINDEER,
IS THEY'LL JUMP FROM A TREE LIMB
ONTO THE BACK OF THE MOOSE
AND TAKE IT DOWN.
IT'S AMAZING.
BUT THEY ALSO EAT CARRION.
CARRION IS MEAT FROM ANIMALS
THAT HAVE ALREADY DIED.
Chris says AND IN THE WINTER,
THEY CAN SMELL CARRION
UNDER TWO METERS OF SNOW.
Chris says WOLVERINES ARE UP AND
ACTIVE ALL WINTER LONG,
THROUGH SOME OF THE COLDEST,
HARSHEST WEATHER.
BEARS GO INTO A DEEP SLEEP
FOR MOST OF THE WINTER,
BUT NOT THE WOLVERINE.
THE WOLVERINE TOUGHS IT OUT
AND IS ABLE TO FIND FOOD
WITH EITHER IT'S
AMAZING HUNTING SKILL
OR BY UNCOVERING ANIMALS
THAT HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO
SURVIVE THE COLD WINTER.
SO WHATEVER A WOLVERINE
FINDS, WHETHER IT BE...
WHOA...HEY...WOLVERINE
COMING THROUGH!
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY BUDDY.
Martin says THEY'RE ONE TOUGH
CREATURE WITH A POWERFUL BITE.
THE WOLVERINE HAS A BITE
THAT CAN CRUSH THROUGH
TEETH AND BONE.
AND ROCKS?
Chris says THEY CAN'T
BITE THROUGH ROCKS,
BUT WHAT'S HE DOING WITH IT?
Martin says HE'S TAKING
IT SOMEWHERE.
IT'S LIKE HE'S CACHING IT.
Chris says CACHING. YOU MEAN
LIKE HIDING FOOD FOR LATER?
Martin says YEAH. THE CACHING
INSTINCT IN A WOLVERINE
IS EXTREMELY POWERFUL
BECAUSE IT'S A
MATTER OF SURVIVAL.
THERE IS REAL LIMITED
FOOD SOMETIMES OF THE YEAR,
SO THEY HAVE TO CACHE THEIR
FOOD ANY CHANCE THEY GET,
SO THEY COME BACK
AND GET IT LATER.
THAT'S WHY THIS WOLVERINE
IS CARRYING ROCKS.
ITS INSTINCT TO CACHE.
Chris says SO NEXT TIME YOU'RE
OUT ON A COLD HARSH DAY,
THINK OF THE WOLVERINE.
Martin says SOMEWHERE OUT THERE, IN
SOME OF THE MOST RUGGED TERRAIN
AND HARSHEST WEATHER ON EARTH,
THE WOLVERINE IS
TOUGHING IT OUT.
Chris says ONE OF THE GREATEST
SURVIVALISTS ON THE PLANET.
KEEP ON CREATURE ADVENTURING.
Martin says WE'LL SEE YOU
ON THE CREATURE TRAIL.
Music plays as the end credits roll.
