[sheep bleats]

[Emma] If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a beaver.

I'm going to call this little fur ball Buster!

[Tim] Guess what, Emma? He already had teeth when he was born.

[Emma] His fur looks so soft.

[Tim] But it isn't thick enough to go swimming yet,

that's why kits stay in the lodge for their first month.

[calm music]

[Emma] Look, Tim. There's two more babies.

[Tim] Yup, but Buster's the most awake of the bunch.

[Emma] That's because he's the hungriest, he wants some milk.

[whimpering]

[sniffing]

[Tim] His flat little tail keeps getting in the way.

[coos]

[Emma] Go, Buster! Push on momma's belly to make her milk come out.

[rasping]

[Emma] What's he doing up so late?

[Tim] Father Beaver likes working at night.

[Emma] Little Buster trims the little branches.

[Tim] His dad cuts down trees when there's no wind.

[Emma] That way, he doesn't have a trunk landing on his head.

That's pretty clever.

[Tim] All right.

It's time to take these branches and set up a dam.

[splashing]

[cooing]

[Emma] Aw, the beaver kids are giving their daddy a hand.

[duck quacking in distance]

[Tim] Buster takes his mission seriously. He does every job he can.

[upbeat music]

[grunts]

[Emma] He swims so fast!

[Tim] Thanks to his tail and webbed paws.

[coos]

[Emma] Come on, Buster! You can do it!

[groans]

[chuckles] [Tim] Or not.

He'll go back to the lodge.

It's easier to get in and it's well-hidden.

[Emma] He could use a hair dryer.

[Tim] Actually, his fur is waterproof.

[Emma] Wow! It's really coming along!

If I were a beaver, I'd build the biggest dams.

-[clanks] -[both cheer]

[Emma] Buster's grown so much in 18 months.

[Tim] Hm, yep. And now, it's his job to make sure the dam is solid.

[Emma] Let's go take a look.

[splashing]

[Tim] He checks the foundation underwater.

[Emma] And at the surface, he makes sure that everything's A-okay.

[comical music]

[splashing]

[lively music]

[Tim] Did you see that?

He swims with his hind paws and works with his front ones.

[Emma] He's so talented!

And don't forget his big teeth for chewing wood.

[munching]

[calm music]

[Emma] Wow! Our Buster's so strong!

[Tim] Mission accomplished.

[coos]

-[Emma] Time to wash off. -[cooing]

[Tim] He's rubbing oil on his fur to make it waterproof.

[Emma] Bye, Buster!

[calm music]

[Emma] If I were an animal, I'd wanna be an arctic fox.

[Tim] Father fox is back from the hunt.

[yelping]

[Emma] He's bringing food to his mate.

[snorting]

[birds squawking]

[Emma] Aww, they have babies.

[Tim] They're still nursing.

But their mom is making them try some meat, too.

[yelping]

[yawns]

[all barking]

[Emma] I'm going to call this one, Olof.

[Olof barks]

[coos]

[sniffing]

[Tim] Hey! He's keeping that meat all to himself.

What a troublemaker.

[growls]

[comical music]

[whines]

[barks]

[Tim] Mm, yummy.

[playful music]

[Emma] "Now, now. You have to learn how to share, Olof."

[groaning]

[Tim] His siblings prefer milk anyway.

[purrs]

[barking]

Mm-hm.

[barking]

[Emma] Why is Olof waiting for his mama?

[Tim] They're moving.

She's taking her fox pups one a time. Olof is the last one.

[barks]

-[Emma] There she is. -[Olof barks]

[barks]

[Tim] "I'm coming, Mom!"

[chuckles] [Emma] He's hungry.

[yelps]

[Tim] He can nurse later. His siblings are waiting.

There's the welcoming committee.

[yelping]

[Emma] What a nice new den.

And they even have space to do somersaults.

[groaning]

[Emma chuckles] Looks like it's time for recess.

[Tim] By playing together, they grow stronger and faster.

[all yelping]

[Emma] It's like Olof has springs on his paws.

[Emma chuckles]

[Tim] He's practicing pouncing on his prey.

[purrs]

[Emma] Hey, Tim. Their fur looks different.

[Tim] That's normal. It gets thicker in the winter.

[snoring]

[Emma] If I were an arctic fox, I'd get a new coat every season.

[snoring]

Mm? [whimpers]

[Emma] That's Olof? I never would've guessed.

[wind howling]

[Tim] You can thank nature for that. Now he's white as snow.

-[Emma] What's he doing? -[Tim] He's hunting.

[Tim] But he's having trouble smelling and hearing because of the wind.

[Emma] Good thing he also has great eyesight.

[Tim] Worst case, he can dig up his reserves from the summer.

[groans]

[Emma] Brr. He must be cold.

[Tim] He'll be fine.

He has a short nose, so it won't freeze at the tip.

And he uses his tail as a blanket.

[polar bear roars]

[suspenseful music]

[Buster yelping]

[roars]

[yelps]

[Emma] Olof has a friend.

[Tim] They are a great duo. Olof eats the bear's leftovers.

[Emma] And the bear gets a new buddy.

[sniffs]

[growls]

[growling]

[growls]

[munching]

[growling]

[Tim] "Can you do this?"

[Emma] "Nope. But I can do somersaults."

[Emma and Tim laughing]

[growls]

[coos]

-[Emma] See you later, bear. -[polar bear growls]

[dramatic music]

[yelps]

[Emma] I guess it's not so lonely at the North Pole after all.

[Tim] Goodbye, Olof. Have fun.

[Olof growls, barks]

[light music]

[Emma] If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a farm animal.

[Tim] You could be a chicken,

but you'd have to get used to sleeping standing up.

Or maybe you could be a newborn piglet.

[squeals]

[squealing continues]

[cackles]

[Emma] I think I'd be this cat

because she gets to explore the whole farm.

[Tim] She is curious just like you.

[neighs]

[Emma] If not, I'd be a foal.

[Tim] Look, Emma. His mother is showing him how to stand.

First, sit up straight.

[neighs]

Then, push off with your hooves.

[Emma] Wow.

[squeals]

[Emma and Tim] Aww.

[Emma and Tim] Good job. You did it!

[snorts]

[snorting]

[cackling]

[Tim] Piglets drink milk often because they have small stomachs.

[Emma] Hold on, little pigs. [chuckles]

[Emma] Is there a room for everyone?

[Tim] Yup. In fact, they always feed at the same teat.

[cows moo]

[Emma] What a cute calf.

All that licking's gotta tickle.

[Tim] This is how his mother dries him off.

And gets rid of those pesky flies.

[meows]

-[chicken cackling] -[cat meowing]

[Emma] Mm. I wonder if there's any milk in here.

[meows]

[Tim] Just an echo. And cats don't like that sound at all.

[Emma and Tim laugh]

[cackles]

-[crows] -[meow]

[geese gobbling]

[Tim] The geese and turkeys don't want the piglets in their space.

[Emma] "Fine. We'll go for a walk."

[horse snorts]

[Emma] He's pretty fast.

[neighs]

[Tim] Pigs can run up to 25 miles per hour.

-[moos] -[squeals]

[Tim] And they know how to swim.

[snorting]

[mooing]

[Emma] The cow family is going for a stroll, too.

[mooing]

[snorting]

[Tim] Hello, cousins.

See how wild boars and pigs look alike?

[Emma] They have the same nose and the same silly tail.

Only their colors are different.

[snorting continues]

[growls]

[Emma] She's not very friendly.

[Tim] Everybody run!

[pigs squeal]

[snorting]

[Emma] The hen is sitting on her eggs.

[cackles]

[Emma] Oh, the chick wants to come out.

[chick chirps]

[snorts]

[chirping]

[Tim] You've done the hard part. So Mom will help you out a bit.

[Emma] What a cutie.

Hm? Ah!

-[chirps] -[laughs]

[cackles]

[Emma] The nest is pretty high up. How do the chicks come down?

[chirping]

[Tim] They have to jump! They'll learn by watching their mom.

[lively music]

[cackling]

[Emma] This gander's bossy.

[Tim] "Keep moving, storks." [laughing]

[Emma] There's food everywhere on the farm.

[Tim] Maybe not everywhere.

[cackles]

[Emma laughing]

[squeak]

[cackling]

[Tim] Mother hen is calling her chicks and showing them where to peck for food.

[chirping]

-[cackle] -[cow moos]

[mooing]

[Emma] This little calf found a friend.

[moos]

[pig squeal in distance]

[Emma] That's a piglet?

[Emma] He's so big now.

[horse neighs]

[stomping]

[neighs]

[cackling]

[snorting]

[Tim] No way! He's even eating the chicken seeds.

[Emma] What a pig. [chuckles]

-[bark] -[Emma laughing]

[Emma] I guess it's time for a nap.

[Tim] See you later, farm animals.

[calm music]

[Tim] If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a zebra!

[Emma] I'm going to call him Ziggy. Oopsie.

[mumbling]

[Tim] Ten minutes old and he's already standing up.

[Tim] Come on, let's go.

[Emma] Ziggy is tripping over his own legs.

Look how many there are.

How does he spot his mama?

[Tim] By her stripes. Each zebra has a different design.

[Emma] I bet that's his daddy.

[Tim] You're right.

[squealing]

[Emma] He looks like a horse wearing pajamas.

[Emma and Tim laughing]

[Emma] Oh, who are those cute little guys?

[Tim] They're called bat-eared foxes.

[laughing] [Emma] That's a funny name.

[whines]

[calm music]

[Tim] Zebra's live with wildebeest, antelopes...

[Emma] And giraffes, too.

Hello, up there!

[whimpering]

[calm music]

[whinnying]

[Tim] Zebras are the only animals out here that are black and white.

As Ziggy gets bigger, his stripes will, too.

[Emma] He's so silly. [laughing]

[cheering]

[snorts]

[Tim] Today's a big day.

Every year, zebras go on a trip during the dry season.

[Emma] They're looking for greener grass and fresh water.

[Tim] They're walking in a straight line.

[Emma] Whoo-hoo.

[whinnying]

[adventure music]

[Tim] They're going to have to cross this river.

[neighs]

[whinnying]

[Emma] Oh! There's a current! That's it, Ziggy! Go!

[whinny]

[Tim laughs]

[Tim] They're walking to the same beat.

[snorting]

[Emma] It's like they're dancing with their heads.

[upbeat music]

[elephant toots]

[Emma] Elephants look so huge when you're a baby zebra.

[elephant toots]

[Tim] They wash up with the help of someone they love.

Like a friend or their mom.

[Emma] If I were a zebra, I'd be proud of my stripes.

[whinnying]

[groans]

[Emma] Looks like Ziggy is thirsty.

[lively music]

[whinny]

[Tim] Do you know why his mother is telling him to go deeper?

[whimpers]

It's because that's where the water's cleanest.

[grunts]

[Tim] Meanwhile, his father is on lookout duty.

[Emma] Ziggy just took a bath and he's already getting dirty.

[Tim] Actually, this helps him dry off and get rid of bugs.

[whines]

[Emma] "Ah, that feels better."

[neighing]

[ominous music]

[Tim] Ziggy runs so fast now that he's four.

[Emma] Uh-oh.

[whinnying]

[Tim] His ears are perked up and he's on the lookout.

He knows there's danger.

[lioness growl]

[whines]

[Emma] "Hey! Leave us alone!"

[snorts]

[screaming]

[Tim] Thanks to him. The heard is safe.

[Emma] Good job, Ziggy!
