0:00:33 > 0:00:34COOING NOISE

0:00:34 > 0:00:37I've got a funny feeling that one of the animals

0:00:37 > 0:00:39has followed me back in my backpack

0:00:39 > 0:00:43from my adventure and is somewhere in my hideout.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45- Could you help me find it? ALL:- Yay!

0:00:45 > 0:00:46Oh, thanks. SQUAWKING

0:00:46 > 0:00:48There it is again. SQUAWKING

0:00:48 > 0:00:50Where's it coming from?

0:00:52 > 0:00:55It sounds like it's coming from that plant pot.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00Oh, look. It's a baby meerkat.

0:01:00 > 0:01:01Aw!

0:01:01 > 0:01:04It sounds like he's not on his own.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Can you find any more meerkats?

0:01:06 > 0:01:07MEERKAT CALLS

0:01:07 > 0:01:10Look, there's one up there.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13And there's one over there.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16Meerkats are really clever little creatures

0:01:16 > 0:01:19and they're fantastic at working as a team,

0:01:19 > 0:01:22just like we did when we were trying to look for them.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25When meerkats are hungry and searching for food,

0:01:25 > 0:01:27one of them becomes sentinel,

0:01:27 > 0:01:30which means that they look out for any danger

0:01:30 > 0:01:32and warn the others of any attacks.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33"Hey, Max, look out!"

0:01:33 > 0:01:36There are lots of animals that work together as a team.

0:01:36 > 0:01:40Orcas use special sounds like clicks and whistles

0:01:40 > 0:01:43to communicate with each other when they're underwater.

0:01:43 > 0:01:47These noises help to keep the group together in massive oceans

0:01:47 > 0:01:50and send messages between group members.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Look at these geese.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54They fly in a special V formation,

0:01:54 > 0:01:57which allows the geese at the back to use less energy

0:01:57 > 0:02:01and makes flying long distances that little bit easier.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03The air comes off the wings of the front goose

0:02:03 > 0:02:06helping to lift the one behind it.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Some geese even swap the leader during long flights

0:02:09 > 0:02:12so everyone gets a chance to have a rest.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14"Here, it's my go now!"

0:02:14 > 0:02:18Wow! There are loads of animals that use teamwork.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20"I'm going. Who's coming?"

0:02:20 > 0:02:23He-he. I am!

0:02:23 > 0:02:25Same here.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28It's a madhouse in here.
