0:01:13 > 0:01:15CAR HORN BEEPS

0:01:27 > 0:01:31Hi, I'm Andy, and I work here, at Safari world.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34We look after animals from all over the planet.

0:01:34 > 0:01:35Hey, bears!

0:01:35 > 0:01:38I've just been checking on the meerkats.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Mr Hammond, my boss, wants to count them later

0:01:41 > 0:01:43to see just how many there are.

0:01:57 > 0:02:01I've just got time for a quick cup of tea before the big count begins.

0:02:11 > 0:02:15Hi, Jen! Everything OK?

0:02:15 > 0:02:18I've just come up to see if you'd like a nice cup of tea.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21No time for a tea break, Andy. We've got a major problem.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25- What's the matter?- The meerkats have escaped from the Savanna Dome!

0:02:25 > 0:02:28They're running all around Safari world.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32- Someone must have accidentally left their gate open.- Oh, no!

0:02:32 > 0:02:37Jen, I think it was me! Can you check the security cameras?

0:02:37 > 0:02:42Oh, no! It WAS me! I accidentally left a door open!

0:02:42 > 0:02:46Yes, I was rushing around, trying to get everything ready for Mr Hammond

0:02:46 > 0:02:49when he comes to count the meerkats. BEEPING

0:02:49 > 0:02:52Oh, dear! That's Mr Hammond calling now! Um...

0:02:54 > 0:02:59- Hello?- Hello, Mr Hammond.- Ah, Andy!

0:02:59 > 0:03:02I was about to start counting the meerkats.

0:03:02 > 0:03:07The funny thing is, there don't seem to be any meerkats here to count.

0:03:07 > 0:03:13- Yes, meerkats do live underground. - That's right - they do.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15Perhaps they're hiding in their burrows.

0:03:15 > 0:03:19I'll see if I can find them. Here, little meerkat!

0:03:19 > 0:03:21HE CLICKS TONGUE

0:03:21 > 0:03:23What are we going to do?

0:03:23 > 0:03:27We need to get the meerkats safely back to the Savanna Dome!

0:03:27 > 0:03:30Yes, you're right. Hang on a minute!

0:03:30 > 0:03:34In the wild, meerkats all make an alarm call to send

0:03:34 > 0:03:36all the other meerkats home to safety.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39Then that's what we need - a meerkat alarm call!

0:03:39 > 0:03:41Time to go on a safari adventure!

0:03:49 > 0:03:51Waistcoat - check!

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Hat - check!

0:03:54 > 0:03:56Backpack - check!

0:03:56 > 0:03:57Gizmo...

0:04:00 > 0:04:01..check!

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Coordinates set. Switching to flight mode.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Engaging boosters.

0:04:20 > 0:04:24Here we go! Woohoo-hoo-hoo!

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Next stop - the Kalahari Desert.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30Ha-ha-ha-ha!

0:04:33 > 0:04:38Yes, I've made it all the way to Africa!

0:04:38 > 0:04:42It's a bit like the Savanna Dome back at Safari World,

0:04:42 > 0:04:46only much bigger. Any info on where to land, Jen?

0:04:46 > 0:04:49I've located a group of meerkats nearby, Andy.

0:04:49 > 0:04:50Good job. I'm going in.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Ah! This looks like an ideal place to land.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11Well, according to Jen's calculations,

0:05:11 > 0:05:14the meerkats should be around here somewhere.

0:05:14 > 0:05:20I don't want to scare them, so gizmo? Size of a baby meerkat.

0:05:24 > 0:05:25Hey! I'm down here!

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Hang on! Is that a meerkat?

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Oh! No. Meerkats don't have beaks.

0:05:37 > 0:05:38That's a hornbill.

0:05:40 > 0:05:41BIRD SQUAWKS

0:05:41 > 0:05:46But that IS a meerkat! The colony must be around here somewhere.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48If I spend enough time with them,

0:05:48 > 0:05:51I'm bound to hear the alarm call I need.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54In fact, I think there's another one over here.

0:05:58 > 0:06:03Hang on a minute! That's not a meerkat - it's a scorpion!

0:06:05 > 0:06:07Uh-oh! He's seen me!

0:06:07 > 0:06:11There must be something in my backpack that can help me.

0:06:11 > 0:06:12Er, stay there.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Huh? Castanets?

0:06:19 > 0:06:25Maybe if I pretend to be like the scorpion, he'll leave me alone.

0:06:25 > 0:06:30OK, Mr Scorpion! Look, I'm just like you. I've got pincers too!

0:06:42 > 0:06:46I don't think this is going to distract him for very long.

0:06:48 > 0:06:49Uh-oh!

0:06:50 > 0:06:53Ho-ho! Meerkats to the rescue!

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Saved by meerkats! Look at that!

0:06:57 > 0:07:01I don't suppose one of you could make the alarm call to send

0:07:01 > 0:07:03all the other meerkats back? Argh!

0:07:06 > 0:07:09I think he likes me. Whoa!

0:07:11 > 0:07:13ANDY SPLUTTERS

0:07:13 > 0:07:19He seems to be carrying me back to the meerkat colony. Great! Whoa!

0:07:20 > 0:07:21Argh!

0:07:26 > 0:07:28Look - meerkats everywhere!

0:07:31 > 0:07:32Excuse me?

0:07:32 > 0:07:36Would you mind making the alarm call, please?

0:07:39 > 0:07:43I just need the noise to send all the meerkats home.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46How about you?

0:07:49 > 0:07:51You? You? You?

0:07:53 > 0:07:58This is no good. Jen, I need you to send me a fact file on meerkats.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02I need to find out which meerkat will make the alarm call.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Fact file coming through, Andy.

0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Download complete.- Thanks, Jen.

0:08:09 > 0:08:10According to this,

0:08:10 > 0:08:15it's the meerkats who are on lookout for danger who make the alarm call.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17So I just need to find one of those.

0:08:19 > 0:08:20There's one!

0:08:24 > 0:08:25Er, excuse me?

0:08:25 > 0:08:29I was wondering if you could make a warning noise, please?

0:08:29 > 0:08:33Maybe something like this. HE YAPS

0:08:33 > 0:08:35Ooh! Ooh! Whoops! Sorry.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38I'm not very good at sounding like a meerkat.

0:08:43 > 0:08:48Oh, hang on. I think he's spotted something. Come on, let's go!

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Oh! It's not easy keeping up with these meerkats,

0:08:57 > 0:08:59not when you're this small.

0:08:59 > 0:09:00Wait for me!

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Oh! Good! We've stopped in front of a cobra.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11HE GASPS

0:09:11 > 0:09:14We've stopped in front of a COBRA!

0:09:14 > 0:09:17Huh? What are they all doing?

0:09:17 > 0:09:24Oh, I see! The meerkats are teaming up to scare the cobra away.

0:09:34 > 0:09:35Whoa!

0:09:35 > 0:09:36Whoa!

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Phew! BEEPING

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Andy? Come in, Andy.

0:09:43 > 0:09:47- Have you managed to record the meerkat call yet?- No, not yet, Jen.

0:09:47 > 0:09:51And I don't know what's going to make them sound the alarm.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54I mean, they didn't even seem to be scared of a cobra!

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Look - one's asleep...

0:09:59 > 0:10:00..one's catching ants...

0:10:04 > 0:10:09..and one's digging for grubs. Hey!

0:10:09 > 0:10:13- You're breaking up, Andy.- Stop it!

0:10:13 > 0:10:17Oh! You're covering me in dirt! You got a tasty grub, though.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21SQUEALING

0:10:21 > 0:10:28Listen! It's a meerkat alarm call! Yes, finally!

0:10:28 > 0:10:33It's warning the other meerkats that there's an eagle in the sky,

0:10:33 > 0:10:37and the meerkats are listening to the call and running home.

0:10:37 > 0:10:42That's exactly the sound I need! Right, now's my chance!

0:10:43 > 0:10:48Gizmo, set to record. Oh, no! It's covered in dirt.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51Gizmo, set to record! It's not working.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Right, that should do it. Gizmo, set to reco...

0:10:57 > 0:11:00BEEPING Oh, great!

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Now there's no meerkats TO record!

0:11:02 > 0:11:05HE SIGHS

0:11:05 > 0:11:10Hang on, though. The sentry's still on duty. Excuse me?

0:11:10 > 0:11:15Would you mind making the alarm call again? I really need it!

0:11:15 > 0:11:17BARKS

0:11:17 > 0:11:18Gizmo, set to record.

0:11:20 > 0:11:21Yes!

0:11:23 > 0:11:26Oh! Don't worry, you lot. It's OK - the eagle's gone now!

0:11:26 > 0:11:28You can come out.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34BEEPING

0:11:34 > 0:11:39- Come in, Andy. We really need that meerkat call.- Don't worry, Jen.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42I'm sending it through right now.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44Got it! Thank you.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Right, back to normal size.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58Great! See you later, meerkats!

0:12:08 > 0:12:09Engaging boosters.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17Time to head back.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Jen, did the meerkat alarm call work?

0:12:54 > 0:12:59- It worked brilliantly, Andy - look!- Oh, fantastic!

0:12:59 > 0:13:00What about Mr Hammond?

0:13:00 > 0:13:04- BEEPING - Oh! That's him calling now. Quickly!

0:13:06 > 0:13:08SHE GASPS Oh!

0:13:10 > 0:13:15Ah, meerkats! There you all are! Now I can finally count you!

0:13:15 > 0:13:21One, two, three, four... Oh! Hello, you two! Look.

0:13:21 > 0:13:25It seems the meerkats were hiding in their burrows after all.

0:13:25 > 0:13:30- I wonder why?- Perhaps something startled them? Maybe a bird of prey?

0:13:30 > 0:13:31Oh, yes!

0:13:31 > 0:13:35That's exactly the sort of thing that would happen to them

0:13:35 > 0:13:37in the wild. Good suggestion, Andy!

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Thanks, Mr Hammond.

0:13:41 > 0:13:42See you next time!
