Hi, I'm Andy.

And I work here, at Safari World.

We look after animals from all over the planet.

Morning.

Today, I've got a very special animal picture

that I need to send off to the National Museum.

I just need to park the Safarimobile,

and then I'm going to head to the Jungle Den.

ANDY WHISTLES TUNE

Ah.

Here it is.

Do you like it? Mr Hammond painted this.

And, no, it's not a picture of me.

It's a chimpanzee!

You cheeky monkeys.

COMPUTER BEEPS

Hi, Andy. The helicopter's waiting to take the painting

-to the National Museum.

-OK, Jen. I'm almost ready.

I need to package it with something nice and soft

so it doesn't get damaged.

Ah, this cotton wool should do it.

There we go.

Great. If you put it in the mail chute, I'll make sure

-it goes straight to the helicopter.

-Thanks, Jen.

PACKAGE SLIDES OFF

Right, I'm just going to have to tidy up now.

Ah! Andy. Just on my way to the chimp enclosure.

Would you care to join me?

Funnily enough, Mr Hammond,

-I've just sent your picture to the helicopter.

-Marvellous.

I'm a big fan of the chimpanzee.

I'm going to plant some kapok trees in their enclosure.

They love to eat the kapok fruit.

Oh, well, that's odd.

What's odd, Mr Hammond?

Well, I thought I put the kapok seeds in here.

What do kapok seeds look like?

Oh, well the seeds themselves are teeny tiny black dots.

But the tree wraps them up

in a special fluffy white fibre to keep them safe.

Fluffy and white like cotton wool?

Well, yes, now you come to mention it.

I suppose they do look a bit like cotton wool.

-Now, where did I put them?

-I tell you what, Mr Hammond,

why don't you go make yourself a cup of tea?

I'll find the kapok seeds,

and I'll bring them over to the enclosure.

That's very kind. I am a bit thirsty. I'll be back soon.

Take your time!

-Jen, I need that painting back, quickly.

-Um...

BUTTONS BEEP

Sorry, Andy. The helicopter has already left

-for the National Museum. What's up?

-Oh, no!

I accidentally put Mr Hammond's kapok seeds in with the painting.

I thought they were cotton wool. What am I going to do now?

Can you get some more of these kapok seeds?

That's a great idea, Jen.

Where do kapok trees grow?

-BUTTONS BEEP

-According to the park's database,

there are lots of kapok trees in Senegal, in Africa.

Well, in that case...

..it's time to go on a Safari Adventure!

Waistcoat, check.

Hat, check.

Backpack, check.

Gizmo...

BEEP, BEEP! ..check!

Coordinates set.

Switching to flight mode.

Engage boosters.

Hold on!

Here we go!

HE BELLOWS

Whoa!

Next stop, Senegal!

ANDY LAUGHS

Yes! HE LAUGHS

I've made it.

According to my scans, you've arrived above Senegal,

-in West Africa.

-Oh, well, in that case,

Jen, I'd better land.

Ah, this looks like a good spot.

Wow.

Well...there are lots of trees around here.

But, according to my Gizmo, none of them are kapok trees.

I think I'm going to go for a little stroll, see what I can find.

CREATURE HOOTS

What's that?

It sounds like someone's...

..laughing.

Aw! It's a baby chimpanzee.

And, look - his dad's tickling him.

How cool is this?

Look at them - they're playing hide-and-seek, just like we do.

There's lots more chimpanzees over there.

Come on, let's get a closer look.

Ah, look - there's a whole troop of chimps,

and they're out searching for something to eat.

See that chimp with the straw in its mouth?

Well, that straw isn't food -

he actually uses it as a tool to catch food.

He sticks it into some rotting logs,

and then eats the termites that jump onto the straw.

How clever is that, eh?

Oh, it looks like they're moving on to find something else to eat.

I'm going to follow them.

Hopefully they'll lead me to some kapok trees.

If I shrink down, they'll hardly even see me.

The size of a baby chimpanzee.

Perfect.

Now I'll fit right in.

Wait for me!

I need to get up there.

HE GRUNTS

Ho-ho! Chimps can move through

the tree tops even faster than they can on the ground.

Oh, look at them go!

Those long, powerful arms make them fantastic swingers.

-How am

-I

-going to keep up with them?

Oh, I know, maybe there's something in my backpack that can help.

A hat?

I've already got one of those.

A leather jacket?

It's far too hot for that.

A whip?!

Hmm...I wonder.

Right.

Here goes.

CRACK!

HE BELLOWS

HE WAILS

I'm definitely not king of the swingers.

HE GRUNTS

Oh, no, I'm stuck.

Help! Anybody there?

Can somebody help me, please?

Oh! It's one of the chimps.

What's it doing?

It's just broken off a branch,

and it's stripping off the leaves.

I know what it's doing.

It's using the stick...

..to help pull me out.

POP!

HE WAILS

Thanks a lot!

Phew! Right, where was I?

Oh, yes, looking for kapok trees.

HE PANTS

It's getting really hot.

Maybe I'll try and cool down

in the shade of the trees over there.

GIZMO BEEPS

Come in, Andy. Have you found those kapok seeds?

No, I've looked everywhere for them. I just can't find any.

CREATURE HOOTS

OK, Jen. No need to laugh about it.

I'm not laughing, Andy.

If you're not laughing, who is?

Ow!

Huh? Where did it come from?

Oh! Chimps!

And they're eating kapok fruit.

-JEN:

-Andy?

Don't worry, Jen. It turns out I HAVE found a kapok tree.

That's great, Andy, but you need to hurry back.

-Mr Hammond is on his way.

-OK, I'll be as fast as I can.

It looks like they're really enjoying that kapok fruit.

And, look, the seeds are wrapped up in that white fluff.

But how am I going to get to them?

Think.

I suppose I could climb up the tree again, but, no.

Perfect.

Thanks!

Whoa! There's lots of it.

Ooh! And some more down there.

Great.

Well, I think that should be plenty.

Now I just need to get back to Safari World as quickly as possible.

Back to normal size.

Great!

See you later, chimps.

Engage boosters.

Time to head back!

Whoa!

HE LAUGHS

-MR HAMMOND:

-Andy?

Oh.

Hello, Mr Hammond!

Oh, there you are. Did you manage to find those seeds?

Yes, they're right here, sir.

-I was just about to bring them to you.

-Good man.

I thought you might like a cup of tea as well.

Thank you very much, Mr Hammond.

It's thirsty work searching for seeds.

Especially in sunny Senegal. See you next time.
