(rock'n'roll music plays)

In an animated frame, fast clip shows images of different animals: horses, llamas, pandas rolling down a ladder, a dog jumping for a treat, cats skateboarding, giraffes fighting one another and a snake lurking on the forest floor.

A song plays that says HUSTLE AROUND WITH THE
PONDERING PANDAS
TEACHING A DOG TRICKS
DISCOVERING ANSWERS
WE LOVE OUR CRAZY CRITTERS
WE LOOK TO FIND OUT
WHAT THEY DO
IT'S CREATURE MANIA
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

The name of the show appears in yellow animal print letters on an orange background. It reads "Creature Mania."

Alfie walks in his bamboo tree house.

Alfie is in his twenties, with short curly brown hair and wears eggshell trousers and a black T-shirt with white rims.

He says HEY, HEY CREATURE MANIACS
WELCOME TO THE SHOW THAT'S
ALL ABOUT OUR ANIMAL FRIENDS
AND COMPLETELY CREATURE CRAZY.
IT'S CREATURE MANIA.
AND HAVE I GOT A SHOW FOR
YOU FROM FURRY TO FABULOUS.
COMING UP...

Clips show different types of animals as Alfie says WE CHECK OUT THE
SUPER AGGRESSIVE SOLDIER ANT,
THE SUPER FLEXIBLE CAT
AND THE SUPER LAZY SLOTH.
WE HAVE A LAUGH
WITH PANDA AND PONY,
AND MEET SOPHIE AND THE CAT
SHE RESCUED AS A KITTEN
IN PET AND TELL.
PLUS, LOTS, LOTS MORE.
IT'S GOING TO
BE A PACKED SHOW.
FIRST THINGS FIRST LET'S
GO SAY HI TO DR. KATRINA
AND THE WONDER DOGS
AND FIND OUT ABOUT
TODAY'S TRICK.
IT IS DOG TRICKS.
HI AND WELCOME TO DOG TRICKS.

A caption reads "Dog Tricks."

Doctor Katrina is in her thirties, with long straight brown hair and wears jeans and a hot pink Creature Mania T-shirt.

She sits on the grass with 4 brown and white dogs and says I'M DR. KATRINA.
I'M JOINED BY THE
BEAUTIFUL WONDER DOGS.
TODAY WE'RE GOING TO SHOW YOU
HOW TO TEACH YOUR DOG
TO GIVE A HIGH TEN.
NOW HANDSOME FLYNN IS GOING
TO DEMONSTRATE THIS FOR US
BUT LET'S LEARN A BIT
ABOUT HIM FIRST.
HEY FLYNNY.
MEET FLYNN,
HE'S EIGHT YEARS OLD.
HIS NICKNAMES ARE
MISTER MAN AND FLYNNY.
HE'S AN AGILITY CHAMPION AND
HAS HEAPS OF OBEDIENCE TITLES.
HE'S DONE LOTS OF
TV COMMERCIALS
AND STAGE SHOW PERFORMANCES,
AND FLIES ALL OVER AUSTRALIA
FOR WORK AND FUN.
HIS FAVOURITE TRICKS
INCLUDE HIDING HIS FACE,
CROSSING HIS PAWS AND
ROLLING UP IN HIS BLANKEY.

Clips show the dog doing its favourite activities.

Katrina says HIS FAVOURITE HOBBIES:
WELL HE KNOWS HOW
TO WIN HEARTS
WITH HIS DASHING
LOOKS AND CHARISMA.
HE ALSO LOVES SWIMMING,
HIS BALL ON THE ROPE,
AGILITY AND SLEEPING
UPSIDE DOWN ON THE LOUNGE.
THREE WORDS TO
DESCRIBE FLYNN:
HANDSOME, CLEVER AND LOYAL.
NOW LET'S SEE FLYNN DEMONSTRATE.

A caption reads "High ten."

Katrina makes Flynn do the trick and says HEY PAWS.
HIGH TEN IS A
MORE ADVANCED TRICK.
IT IS A PROGRESSION FROM
SHAKE PAWS AND HIGH FIVE.
IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF A CHALLENGE
BUT IT'S VERY CUTE AND FUN.
HIGH TEN.
WELL NOW WE'VE SEEN
AN EXPERT DEMONSTRATION,
LET'S GO SEE WHO'S
HERE TO TRAIN THEIR DOG.

Katrina sits on a bench with Jayden and his dog.

Jayden is around 11, with short brown hair and wears blue trousers and a blue T-shirt.

Katrina says TODAY I'M HERE WITH JAYDEN
AND HIS GORGEOUS PUPPY MAGIC.
JAYDEN TELL ME A
BIT ABOUT MAGIC.
SHE'S PRETTY ENERGETIC.

Jayden says YEAH, SHE LIKES TO RUN AROUND.
SHE LIKES DOING TRICKS AT HOME.
SHE'LL DO ANY TRICKS FOR
ANYBODY.

Katrina says HOW OLD IS SHE?

Jayden says SHE'S SIX MONTHS.

Katrina says AND WHAT BREED IS SHE?

Jayden says A COOLIE.

Katrina says WHAT'S THE BEST PART
ABOUT OWNING A DOG?

Jayden says WELL IT'S FUN TO TEACH
THEM TRICKS
AND ALSO TO HELP
THEM ENJOY LIFE.

Katrina says ARE YOU READY TO GO
LEARN SOME TRICKS?

Jayden says THAT'D BE GREAT.

Katrina says EXCELLENT.
I THINK SHE'S KEEN.
SHE'S VERY MOTIVATED
BY FOOD AREN'T YOU?
OH, THANK YOU.
I'M HERE WITH JAYDEN
AND MAGIC
AND WE'RE GOING TO ATTEMPT
TO TEACH MAGIC
TO DO A HIGH TEN OR GIVE ME TEN.
FIRST STEP IS TO
CALL HER TO YOU,
GET HER TO SIT, GO DOWN LOW
AND GET HER TO OFFER THE PAW
LIKE THE SHAKE
AND THEN GIVE HER A REWARD.
NOW I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU ONE.
CALL HER TO YOU.
GET HER TO SIT.

Jayden says SIT.

Katrina says AS SOON AS SHE
OFFERS YOU THAT PAW,
THERE YOU GO, GOOD GIRL,
GIVE HER ANOTHER TREAT.
DO THE PAW.

Jayden says GOOD GIRL.

Katrina says GOOD GIRL.
OKAY THAT'S A GREAT STEP ONE.
WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO NEXT
IS TO TEACH HER TO MOVE THAT
PAW UP A LITTLE HIGHER
WHEN WE HOLD THE HAND UP HIGHER.
WE'LL GO BACK TO THE STUDIO
FOR A WHILE
AND WE'LL COME BACK
AND SEE HOW THESE
GUYS ARE DOING.

Back in the studio, Alfie says IT'LL BE GREAT TO SEE
HOW JAYDEN AND MAGIC DO
WITH LEARNING TO HIGH TEN.
WE'LL CHECK BACK WITH THEM
A BIT LATER ON IN THE SHOW.
BUT FIRST IT'S TIME
FOR AN ANIMAL FACT.

The narrator says DID YOU KNOW ADULT
SOLDIER ANTS ARE UNABLE
TO EAT SOLID ITEMS
AND INGEST ONLY LIQUIDS?
THEY USE THEIR
ANTENNAE TO SMELL,
TOUCH AND COMMUNICATE
WITH EACH OTHER.
UNLIKE OTHER ANT SPECIES,
SOLDIER ANTS ARE NOMADIC,
MAKING TEMPORARY NESTS
WHILE TRAVELING FROM ONE
LOCATION TO THE NEXT.
THEIR NESTS ARE MADE OF
THE ANTS THEMSELVES:
ARMY ANTS FORM THE WALLS
OF THE NEST
BY FASTENING THEIR CLAWS
AND MANDIBLES TO ONE ANOTHER.
HOLD ON EVERYONE.
AND THAT'S...

Kids say AN ANIMAL FACT.

Alfie says AND NOW MY CREATURE FRIENDS
IT'S TIME TO MEET A FEW
OTHER PALS OF MINE.
THEY'RE BIG MOUTHED,
THEY'RE GOSSIPY,
THEY'RE SMOOTH AND
THEY'RE LONG WINDED.
WHO ELSE COULD I BE
TALKING ABOUT?
IT'S TIME FOR TWO BOBS.

Dung Beetle Bob rolls dung down some leaves and says HEY, BOB.
LOOK WHAT I FOUND.

Orangutan Bob says OH, GOOD ONE, BOB.
THAT'S A BIGUN.

Dung Beetle Bob says SURE IS BOB.
FOUND IT NEAR THE BUSH
OVER THERE.

Orangutan Bob says PRETTY SMOOTH LOOKING TOO.

Dung Beetle Bob says IT'S REAL EASY TO ROLL AS WELL.

Orangutan Bob says HEY I WONDER WHAT KIND OF
ANIMAL IT CAME FROM.

Dung Beetle Bob says WHAT DO YOU MEAN, BOB?

Orangutan Bob says WELL YOU KNOW,
WHAT KIND OF POO IS IT?

Dung Beetle Bob says WHAT DO YOU MEAN POO?
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

Orangutan Bob says WELL POO, YEAH.
YOU KNOW ALL THAT BROWN STUFF
YOU COLLECT IS POO.
YOU'RE A DUNG BEETLE BOB.

Dung Beetle Bob says WHEN YOU SAY POO...

Orangutan Bob says I MEAN POO YEAH BOB.
YOU EAT POO.
P DOUBLE O.
POOPEDIE DOOPEDIE DO.

Dung Beetle Bob says OH COULD YOU STOP TALKING..

Orangutan Bob says YOU ALL RIGHT BOB?

Dung Beetle Bob says JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE HERE.

Alfie says WE'LL HEAR FROM THEM
AGAIN LATER IN THE SHOW.
BUT NOW IT'S TIME TO PUT YOUR
ANIMAL UNDERSTANDING TO THE TEST
AND NOURISH THAT BRAIN OF YOURS.
IT'S TIME FOR CREATURE QUIZ.

The narrator says WHICH OFTHESE ANIMALS
HAS A TOP SPEED OF
EIGHTY KILOMETRES PER HOUR?
IS IT A, THE DEADLY MAKO SHARK?
B, THE CONSTANTLY
WHAMMING WOODPECKER?
OR C, THE WILDEBEEST,
ALSO KNOWN AS A GNU?
IF YOU THINK C, THE
WILDEBEEST YOU ARE CORRECT.
A FULLY-GROWN ADULT CAN RUN UP
TO EIGHTY KILOMETRES AN HOUR.
THE WILDEBEEST ARE PART
OF THE GREAT MIGRATION.
WHICH IS THE LARGEST
OVERLAND MIGRATION IN THE WORLD.
FROM THE VAST SERENGETI PLAINS
TO THE HILLS OF THE MASAI MARA,
ONE AND A HALF
MILLION WILDEBEEST
MIGRATE OVER 3,000 KILOMETRES
EACH YEAR
IN SEARCH OF THEIR NEXT FEAST.
WHEN THEY MIGRATE TO OPEN
WOODLANDS TO FEED IN MAY,
UPWARDS OF NEARLY
A MILLION WILDEBEEST
ARE JOINED BY
OTHER ANIMALS SUCH AS ZEBRA.

A zebra says SORRY IS
THIS GRASS ORGANIC?

The narrator says WILDEBEEST
NUMBERS HAVE INCREASED
IN THE LAST FIFTY YEARS
AND THEY CAN LIVE UP
TO TWENTY YEARS OLD.
WILDEBEEST HAVE
A SPECIAL TRICK
TO HELP FIND THEIR
FAVOURITE FOOD.
THEY CAN SENSE WHEN AND
WHERE RAIN WILL FALL.
THIS MEANS THEY CAN
FEED ON THE FRESHEST,
RAIN-RIPENED GRASS.
BUT THIS FEAST
ISN'T WITHOUT ITS RISKS.
THE WILDEBEEST ARE RELENTLESSLY
TRACKED BY HUNGRY PREDATORS
WANTING TO HAVE A
BANQUET OF THEIR OWN.
THESE CHEETAHS ARE WATCHING
THIS FAST FOOD
WAITING TO PICK-OFF
ANY STRAGGLERS.
BUT AS LONG AS THE
WILDEBEEST STICK TOGETHER,
HUNGRY PREDATORS HAVE NO CHANCE.

Alfie says ALRIGHT GUYS, STILL TO COME
ON TODAY'S SHOW
WE HAVE MORE CANINE CRAZINESS
IN DOG TRICKS,
LOADS OF LAUGHS WITH
BAD PUN PONY,
A TRUCK LOAD OF ANIMAL
AMAZINGNESS IN CREATURE QUIZ,
SOME ASTONISHING ANIMAL FACTS,
AND WE MEET OUR
PET AND TELL GUEST
AND HEAR SOME HILARITY
FROM THE TWO BOBS.
ALL THAT, STILL TO COME,
ON CREATURE MANIA.

The narrator says DID YOU KNOW A GROUP
OF CATS IS CALLED A CLOWDER?
IF A CAT'S EYES ARE CLOSED,
IT'S NOT NECESSARILY
BECAUSE THEY'RE TIRED.
CLOSED EYES MEANS A
CAT IS HAPPY OR PLEASED.
CATS HAVE FIVE TOES
ON THEIR FRONT PAWS
AND FOUR ON EACH BACK PAW.
A CAT'S MEOW IS USUALLY
NOT DIRECTED AT ANOTHER CAT,
BUT AT A HUMAN.
TO COMMUNICATE WITH OTHER CATS,
THEY WILL USUALLY HISS,
PURR AND SPIT.
AND THAT'S...

Kids say AN ANIMAL FACT.

Alfie says AND NOW TIME FOR
SOMETHING A BIT DIFFERENT.
EARLIER WE MET JAYDEN AND MAGIC
ON DOG TRICKS
AND THEY'VE BEEN PRACTICING
STEP ONE OF HIGH TEN
WITH DR. KATRINA.
WELL NOW IT'S TIME SEE HOW
THEIR TRAINING IS GOING
AND FIND OUT IF THEY CAN
MASTER STEP TWO.
WELL LET'S GO.
IT'S DOG TRICKS.

Katrina says MAGIC AND JAYDEN HAVE BEEN
DOING A GREAT JOB
AND NOW WE'RE UP TO STEP TWO OF
LEARNING THE GIVE ME TEN.
SO BASICALLY THIS TIME WE'RE
GOING TO LEARN GIVE ME FIVE.
SO MAGIC SIT DOWN.
NOW THE GOAL IS TO MOVE
YOUR HAND UP HIGHER
AND GET HER TO TOUCH YOUR
HAND WITH HER PAW.
SO GET HER TO SIT.
THAT'S OKAY AND THEN IF
SHE GOES UP, GOOD GIRL.
THEN SHE GETS A TREAT.
OKAY.
DO YOU WANT TO HAVE A GO
AND SEE IF YOU CAN GET HER
TO OFFER YOU THAT PAW.

Jayden says TREAT FOR SITTING.

Katrina says THAT'S PERFECT.
PERFECT.
GOOD GIRL.
GOOD GIRL.
ONE MORE TIME.
GOOD GIRL.
PERFECT.
GREAT JOB.
BOTH OF YOU.

Alfie says AND NOW MY FRIENDS TIME
FOR SOME MORE LAUGHS,
SOME SNICKERING, SOME SNORTING
AND CHORTLING
WITH OUR FAVOURITE FUNNY HORSE.
OR AT LEAST SHE THINKS SO.
HAND OVER THE MIC TO OUR
ONE AND ONLY BAD PUN PONY.

(music plays)

A caption reads "It's Bad Pun Pony."

A clip shows a brown pony galloping and neighing on a field.

Bad Pun Pony says WHAT DO
YOU CALL A LAZY KANGAROO?
A POUCH POTATO.

Ducks chuckle.

Bad Pun Pony says YOU KNOW SOMETIMES
I FEEL FOR THE CALENDAR.
ITS DAYS ARE NUMBERED.

A rabbit laughs.

Kids say BAD PUN PONY YAY!

Alfie says OH, THAT PONY
GETS ME EVERY TIME.
SHE'LL BE BACK WITH MORE
PONYING AROUND NEXT TIME.
BUT NOW TIME FOR
SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
WARM UP THOSE BRAIN CELLS
AND TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE
WITH ANOTHER COOL CREATURE QUIZ.

The narrator says WHICH OF
THESE ANIMALS
USES VOMIT TO MAKE FOOD?
IS IT A, THE LEAF CUTTER ANTS?
THE FARMERS OF THE INSECT WORLD.

An ant says FUNGUS ANYBODY?

The narrator says B, THE BUTTERFLY?
THESE DEAF BEAUTIES TASTE
WITH THEIR FEET
AND SMELL WITH THEIR ANTENNAE.
OR IS IT C, THE HONEYBEE?
WHO INDIVIDUALLY WILL ONLY MAKE
ONE TWELFTH OF A TEASPOON
OF HONEY IN ITS LIFETIME.
IF YOU CHOSE C, THE HONEYBEE
AS THE VOMIT CHEF,
YOU ARE CORRECT.
LONG BEFORE IT REACHED
YOUR TOAST
THIS STICKY SWEETNESS WAS VOMIT.
WHAT HAPPENS TO MAKE IT IS
A DIRTY JOB
BECAUSE IT INVOLVES THROWING
UP OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

A bee bulges and says EXCUSE ME.

The narrator says FROM THE MOMENT
A NEW HONEY BEE IS BORN,
IT WORKS ALL DAY AND
ALL NIGHT,
SEVEN DAYS A WEEK,
365 DAYS A YEAR.

A bee says OH, BOY.
GIVE ME A BREAK.

The narrator says THE FIRST STAGE OF
MAKING HONEY IS NICE AND CLEAN.
THE BEE SUCKS SUGARY
NECTAR FROM FLOWERS,
VISITING UP TO 1500 BLOSSOMS
A DAY.
THINGS ONLY GET DIRTY
WHEN THE FORAGING BEES RETURN
TO THE NEST.
THEY SEARCH OUT YOUNGER
WORKERS CALLED HOUSE BEES,
BECAUSE THE FORAGERS
NEED SOMEONE
TO STICK A TONGUE DOWN
THEIR THROAT
TO SUCK OUT ALL THE NECTAR.
THEN THE FORAGERS DEPART
TO VISIT MORE FLOWERS,
LEAVING THE HOUSE
BEES TO THROW UP.
THEY REGURGITATE THE NECTAR
AND SWALLOW IT BACK DOWN,
OVER AND OVER AGAIN,
VOMITING UP TO FIFTY TIMES.
IT'S AN AWFUL LOT OF WORK
TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING SWEET
TO SPREAD ON YOUR TOAST.

A human says THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Alfie says WHAT AMAZING CREATURES, SO COOL.
ALL RIGHT CREATURE FANS, STILL
TO COME ON TODAY'S SHOW -
AN AMAZING ANIMAL FACT,
WE MEET TODAY'S PET AND TELL
GUESTS IN THE HOUSE,
THERE'S AN ADORABLE ANIMAL
IN TOO CUTE,
PLUS SOME MUSINGS FROM OUR
FAVOURITE BLACK AND WHITE BEAR,
THE FANTASTIC PONDERING PANDA.
ALL THAT, STILL TO
COME ON CREATURE MANIA.

The narrator says DID YOU KNOW
THE THREE-TOED AND
THE TWO-TOED SLOTHS
ARE FROM TWO DIFFERENT
FAMILIES OF ANIMALS?
WITH THEIR LAST KNOWN
COMMON ANCESTOR
HAVING EXISTED OVER
THIRTY MILLION YEARS AGO.
PALEONTOLOGISTS HAVE FOUND
AN AMAZING VARIETY OF FOSSILS.
AT LEAST TWENTY-THREE DIFFERENT
KINDS OF PREHISTORIC SLOTHS.
THE LARGEST OF THESE
WAS THE MEGATHERIUM.
THIS GIANT STOOD SEVEN METRES
TALL
AND WEIGHED AN
AMAZING SEVEN TONS.
I HIGHLY DOUBT
THAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE
TO JUST HANG AROUND IN TREES
JUST LIKE THESE SLOTHS DO.
AND THAT'S...

Kids say AN ANIMAL FACT.

Alfie says ALL RIGHT CREATURE FANS
IT'S THAT TIME OF THE SHOW
I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO.
WE'RE ABOUT TO MEET A
SPECIAL GUEST AND THEIR PET
RIGHT HERE IN THE HOUSE.
BUT FIRST THERE'S THIS.

(music plays)

A clip shows a fox poke a bear and run away.

The bear says HEY.

The fox says HO HO HO.

A caption reads "It's pet and tell."

Alfie sits in the studio with Sophie and her pet cat.

Sophie is in her early teens, with long straight light brown hair in a braided updo and wears white trousers and a yellow T-shirt.

Alfie says INTRODUCING SOPHIE.
SHE'S BROUGHT IN
HER PET CAT TO SHOW US.
HELLO SOPHIE.

Sophie says HI ALFIE.

Alfie says WELCOME TO THE SHOW.

Sophie says THANK YOU.

Alfie says SO AHH, WHO IS THIS?

Sophie says THIS IS ADELONG.

Alfie says ADELONG.
AND I CAN'T SEE
WHAT'S IN THIS CAGE.
WHAT IS ADELONG?

Sophie says ADELONG IS A
SHORTHAIRED UMM, DOMESTIC CAT.
HE'S BLACK AND HAS WHITE SOCKS.

Alfie says HOW DID YOU COME UP
WITH THE NAME ADELONG?

Sophie says WE FOUND HIM IN THE BUSH,
WHEN WE WERE WALKING IN
THE TOWN ADELONG.

Alfie says SO HE WAS AN ABANDONED
CAT AND YOU FOUND HIM?

Sophie says YEAH.

Alfie says AND YOU GUYS TOOK HIM UNDER
YOUR WING AND LOOKED AFTER HIM.

Sophie says YES.

Alfie says OH, THAT'S AMAZING.
SHORTHAIRED DOMESTIC CAT.
ON AVERAGE A DOMESTIC
SHORTHAIRED CAT ALLOWED OUTSIDE
WILL SPEND UP TO SIX HOURS
A DAY HUNTING.
THEY WILL LIVE TO AROUND
FIFTEEN YEARS IF CARED FOR WELL.
EACH CAT'S
PERSONALITY IS DIFFERENT.
SOME ARE SILLY AND GOOFY.
SOME ARE HIGHLY
INTELLIGENT AND SMART.
THEY CAN BE CALM OR HYPER,
PLAYFUL OR LAZY.
THEY ARE NOT VERY VOCAL
BUT USUALLY HAVE A LOVING
AND CARING NATURE.
SHORTHAIRED DOMESTIC CATS.
CAN YOU TELL ME
MORE ABOUT ADELONG?

Sophie says HE'S VERY UMM, FRIENDLY.
LIKE HE, HE ONCE FOLLOWED US TO,
LIKE HE NORMALLY FOLLOWS
US TO SCHOOL.

Alfie says SO ADELONG SOUNDS LIKE A VERY
FRIENDLY AND VERY PLAYFUL CAT.

Sophie says YEAH DEFINITELY.

Alfie says SO WOULD YOU SAY
HE'S A GOOD CAT?

Sophie says YEAH.

Alfie says YEAH?

Sophie says YEAH HE LIKES UMM,
FIGHTING AND BITING.
HE PLAYS THIS GAME
CALLED THE FIGHTY, BITEY GAME.
UMM, SO PRETTY MUCH
HE LIKE YOU KNOW COMES
AND AHH, WRAPS HIS PAWS
AROUND YOUR LIKE ANKLE
AND STARTS LIKE
BITING YOUR LIKE AHH,
THE END OF YOUR JEANS OR...

Alfie says REALLY?

Sophie says YEAH.

Alfie says SO DOES HE EVER
DO ANYTHING WEIRD?

Sophie says IT'S CALLED THE DISCO DANCE.

Alfie says THE WHAT?

Sophie says THE DISCO DANCE.

Alfie says LIKE DISCO.

Sophie says YEAH.
HE LIKE PATS HIS PAWS AROUND
LIKE HE'S DANCING PRETTY MUCH.

Alfie says LIKE DO DO DO DO DO DO
THAT'S AWESOME.

Sophie says YEAH BEFORE HE GOES TO BED.

Alfie says WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT ADELONG?

Sophie says I LOVE THAT HE'S REALLY CUDDLY.
IF YOU'RE SAD HE WILL LIKE COME
UP AND JUMP ON YOUR BED
OR LIKE JUMP NEXT TO YOU
AND YOU CAN JUST GIVE
HIM A BIG CUDDLE
AND LIKE YOU FEEL REALLY BETTER.

Alfie says YOU FEEL REALLY HAPPY.

Sophie says YEAH.

Alfie says WELL THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
COMING ON THE SHOW TODAY SOPHIE.

Sophie says THANK YOU ALFIE.

Alfie says AND THANK YOU FOR INTRODUCING US
TO YOUR WONDERFUL CAT ADELONG.

Sophie says YOU'RE WELCOME.

Alfie says NOW THIS.

The narrator says ALONG THE
TREACHEROUS COASTLINE
OF NEW ZEALAND'S SNARE ISLANDS
ARE THE FUNNIEST FLAPPERS
YOU'LL EVER SEE.

The crowd says AWW.

The narrator says THE CRESTED PENGUIN.
THEY'RE AS ADORABLE
AS THE ADELE PENGUIN.

A penguin says HEYA.

The narrator says BUT THEY'VE
GOT THE CUTEST HAIRSTYLES.

Another penguin says HEY BABY.

The narrator says AND THEIR CHICKS ARE
THE SWEETEST LITTLE FUZZ BALLS.
WHEN THEY'RE NOT WADDLING AROUND
OR SLIDING ABOUT
THESE LITTLE FLAPPERS ACTUALLY
FLY UNDERWATER.

A plane says WE'RE
CLEARED FOR LANDING.

Penguins jump on the rocks and say YIPPEE.

The narrator says CRESTED PENGUINS.
THEY'RE JUST...

Kids say TOO CUTE.

Alfie says AHH, WE'LL HAVE MORE
TOO CUTE NEXT TIME
I PROMISE AND I CAN'T WAIT.
NEXT ON THE SHOW
IT'S TIME TO PUT YOUR CREATURE
COMPREHENSION TO THE TEST
AND FEED THAT BRAIN OF YOURS.
YES IT'S TIME FOR CREATURE QUIZ.

The narrator says WHICH OF
THESE ANIMALS
LIVES IN A RAINFOREST CANOPY?
IS IT A, THE ADORABLE
RED FACED JAPANESE MACAQUE?
B, THE VERY GRIPPY GECKO?
OR C, THE
LUMHOLTZ'S TREE KANGAROO?
THIS LUMHOLTZ GUY
DISCOVERED A FINE ANIMAL.
IF YOU WANTED C,
YOU ARE CORRECT.
IT IS TRUE,
KANGAROOS DO CLIMB TREES.
AUSTRALIA'S VERY OWN
LUMHOLTZ TREE KANGAROO
JUMPS, FEEDS AND SNOOZES
AMONGST THE LAST REMAINING
RAINFOREST CANOPIES
OF NORTHERN QUEENSLAND.
UNLIKE A MONKEY OR KOALA, IT
STILL HOPS ALONG BRANCHES,
MUCH LIKE A RED KANGAROO
HOPS ALONG THE GROUND.
EVOLUTION HAS MADE
THE TREE KANGAROO
A SPECIALISED TREE CLIMBER.
ALTHOUGH IT TAKES A LITTLE
WHILE TO GET USED TO IT.
THEY HAVE SHARPLY CURVED,
ELONGATED HAND CLAWS
FOR GRIPPING ONTO TREE TRUNKS,
INDEPENDENTLY MOBILE FINGERS TO
HOLD LEAVES, BRANCHES AND MOSS,
THICK AND BROAD FEET PADS
FOR GREATER STABILITY
AND THEY HAVE EXCEPTIONALLY
LONG TAILS FOR BALANCING.
WHEN A TREE KANGAROO
CANNOT REACH ANOTHER TREE
OR NEEDS TO ESCAPE
A POTENTIAL THREAT,
IT IS CAPABLE OF LEAPING FROM
FIFTEEN METRES IN THE AIR
TO LAND ON THE GROUND,
UNHARMED.
THIS JUMP IS CALLED A CRASH.

A caption reads "Two Bobs."

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says HEY BOB, HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says I HAVE NO IDEA BOB.

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says COME ON.
I BET YOU WEIGH A LOT.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says WELL THAT'S NOT VERY POLITE
BOB.

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says I WILL SEE IF I CAN PICK YOU UP.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says I'D PREFER YOU DIDN'T BOB.

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says OH COME ON BOB.
COME ON.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says PLEASE DON'T PICK ME UP.

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says UP YOU GO BOB.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says PUT ME DOWN.

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says COME ON BOBBY.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says OH BOB.

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says I AM GOING TO SAY, OH ABOUT
EIGHT OR NINE GRAMS BOB.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says CAREFUL BOB, CAREFUL.
OH.

Beetle Bob 2 falls from a tree.

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says WHOOPSIE.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says EIGHT OR NINE GRAMS YOU SAY.

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says WELL BY THE SIZE OF THE DIVOT
IN THE DIRT YOU MADE BOB
I'D SAY TAKE AHH WIND DIRECTION
INTO ACCOUNT, ADD THE VECTORS
AND THERE IS GRAVITY ALWAYS
THERE.
ALL RIGHT CARRY THE TWO,
KEEP THE DECIMAL POINT,
TAKE THE COSINE, COEFFICIENT.
YEAH YOU'RE REALLY FAT BOB.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says A GOOD THING?

Rhino Beetle Bob 1 says FOR A RHINO BEETLE YES.
IN FACT I THINK YOU COULD EAT
A BIT MORE BOB.

Rhino Beetle Bob 2 says EATING MORE NOW.

Alfie says OH, THOSE BOBS ARE BRILLIANT.
WELL CREATURE MANIACS,
WE HAVE SO MUCH MORE STILL
TO COME ON THE SHOW.
WE'VE GOT ANOTHER
INCREDIBLE ANIMAL FACT,
SOME FASCINATING PONDERINGS FROM
OUR FAVOURITE ROLLIE POLY PAL.
THE ONE, THE ONLY
PONDERING PANDA,
AND TODAY'S FINAL VISIT
TO DR. KATRINA
FOR STEP THREE IN DOG TRICKS.
SO, ALL THAT STILL TO COME,
RIGHT HERE ON CREATURE MANIA.

The narrator says DID YOU KNOW
THAT SCORPION FISH STUN PREY
WITH THEIR VENOMOUS
SPINE BEFORE EATING IT?
THESE GRUMPY LOOKING
BOTTOM DWELLERS CAN BE FOUND
HIDDEN AMONGST ROCK AND STONE
CREVICES IN CORAL REEFS.
THAT'S WHY THEY ARE
ALSO CALLED STONEFISH.
WHEN COMPETITION
FOR FOOD IS TOUGH,
TWO SCORPION FISH
GO HEAD TO HEAD.
THE DOMINANT SCORPION FISH
GETS THE SPOILS
BUT HE WON'T BE LEFT ALONE UNTIL
IT'S SAFE IN HIS BELLY.

A fish says TAKE A HIKE.

The narrator says AND THAT'S...

Children says AN ANIMAL FACT.

Alfie says WHAT A BRILLIANT FACT!
ALL RIGHT CREATURE FANS TIME
TO GET A BIT PHILOSOPHICAL.
IT'S TIME TO MULL IT ALL OVER,
TIME TO HAVE A LITTLE BROOD,
TO EXPLORE A FEW IDEAS WITH
OUR FAVOURITE BLACK AND WHITE,
ROLLIE POLY,
BAMBOO EATING,
PONDERING PANDA.

Kids say THE PANDA THAT LIKES TO PONDER.

A panda lying on its back says WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH SLOTHS?
LIKE REALLY, WHAT IS THEIR DEAL?
I MEAN, THEY'RE SUPPOSED
TO BE ANIMALS
THEY BREATHE, HAVE BRAINS AND
HEARTS AND STUFF LIKE ANIMALS,
BUT WHAT FOR?
'COS WHEN YOU THINK
ABOUT IT,
ANIMALS BREATHE, AND HAVE
BRAINS AND HEARTS AND STUFF
SO THEY CAN MOVE.
BUT SLOTHS, LIKE, RARELY MOVE.
THEY JUST HANG AROUND ALL DAY
GROWING ALGAE ON THEMSELVES
KINDA LIKE ROCKS.
YEAH, SLOTHS ARE
BASICALLY ROCKS.

Alfie says HE'S ALWAYS SO WEIRD.
LET'S MOVE ON.
TIME TO SEE HOW JAYDEN AND MAGIC
HAVE BEEN GETTING ON
WITH THEIR TRAINING.
WILL THEY MASTER THE FINAL STEP
OF THE HIGH TEN?
LET'S FIND OUT.
IT'S DOG TRICKS.

Katrina says WE'VE HAD A GREAT TIME TO DAY.
MAGIC IS A SUPER
SMART PUPPY BY THE WAY.
SO WE'RE GOING TO GO
FOR STEP THREE NOW.
WE'VE GOT TO HER
GIVING HIGH FIVES
AND YOU'VE BEEN PRACTISING.
SHE GIVES A HIGH
FIVE ON BOTH PAWS,
WHICH IS GREAT.
AND THE NEXT STEP IS TO TEACH
HER TO DO BOTH PAWS AT ONCE.
SO A HIGH TEN.
NOW THE GOAL WITH THIS IS
YOU HAVE GOT TO KEEP HER
BOTTOM ON THE GROUND
AND AGAIN BECAUSE
SHE GETS A BIT EXCITED
SHE MIGHT JUMP UP.
WE DON'T GIVE HER THE TREAT.
SHE GETS THE TREAT ONLY WHEN
HER BOTTOM IS ON THE GROUND.
AND I SHOULD ADD
AS ALWAYS WHENEVER YOU ARE
DOING ANY DOG TRAINING
UMM, WITH A PUPPY
OR A DOG
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE
ADULT SUPERVISION.
THANK YOU, VERY IMPORTANT.
OKAY SHALL WE GIVE IT A GO?

Jayden says YES.
DROP.

Katrina says NOW OFFER HER ONE.
THAT'S A GOOD GIRL.
GOOD GIRL.
OH, MY GOSH SHE DID IT FIRST UP.
LET'S TRY AGAIN.
GOOD GIRL.
HIGH FIVE.
HIGH TEN.
GOOD GIRL.
OKAY THAT WAS AMAZING.
HIGH FIVE TO YOU.
HIGH TEN TO MAGIC, HUH?
SHE DID GREAT.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Jayden says YEAH, SHE DID PRETTY WELL.

Katrina says YOU SHOULD BE VERY PROUD OF
YOURSELF AND MAGIC AS WELL.
SO KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, HUH?
WE'RE OUT OF TIME TODAY.
I HOPE YOU
ENJOYED MAGIC'S TRICK,
WHICH WAS THE HIGH TEN.
I'LL BE BACK NEXT TIME
WITH MORE DOG TRICKS.

Alfie says WE'LL SEE DR. KATRINA
ON THE NEXT SHOW
WITH ANOTHER DOG TRICK.
BUT UNFORTUNATELY THAT'S
ALL WE HAVE TIME FOR TODAY.
I HOPE YOU'VE
ENJOYED THE SHOW.
IT'S BEEN AWESOME
WATCHING JAYDEN TRAINING MAGIC,
AND HOW GORGEOUS
WAS SOPHIE'S CAT?
WHAT A JAM PACKED SHOW.
IF YOU'RE LOOKING
FOR FLUFFY, FANCY,
FREAKY AND FUN ANIMALS
THEN THERE'S ONLY ONE
PLACE TO BE.
AND REMEMBER ANIMALS ARE
AWESOME AND PETS ARE PALS.
I'M ALFIE.
JOIN ME NEXT TIME
ON CREATURE MANIA.
