Hello! Or "jambo", as we say here.

0:00:310:00:35

Welcome to the wide, grassy plains of Africa,

0:00:350:00:40

and a very special place called the Masai Mara.

0:00:400:00:45

This is home to all of our little big cats,

0:00:450:00:50

and it's a land full of stories.

0:00:500:00:53

Many different animals have to find their way around the Masai Mara.

0:00:550:01:00

Huge herds of wildebeest travel together across the grasslands.

0:01:000:01:05

The hawk soars above the plains, and sees everything from high above.

0:01:070:01:14

Baboons climb right up into the treetops to find food,

0:01:160:01:21

and keep a look-out.

0:01:210:01:24

And all our little big cats

0:01:240:01:26

have to find their way around the Masai Mara,

0:01:260:01:31

but which one will be exploring today?

0:01:310:01:34

Will it be the lazy lions?

0:01:360:01:41

The speedy cheetahs?

0:01:410:01:45

Or the lonesome leopards?

0:01:450:01:49

It's MY story!

0:01:500:01:53

Aha! This is Mbile, the cheetah cub!

0:01:530:01:56

-Jambo, Mbile!

-Jambo!

0:01:590:02:02

These are my brothers, Tatu and Moja.

0:02:020:02:07

And this is my mother, Mama Muta.

0:02:070:02:10

Mama spends a lot of time standing on termite mounds.

0:02:100:02:15

She can see everything from up there.

0:02:150:02:19

I like squeezing up next to her so I can see all of the animals.

0:02:200:02:25

Just look at all those wildebeest!

0:02:250:02:29

Every day, we walk through the long grass, but I can't see a thing.

0:02:350:02:42

I wish I was tall, like Mama. At least she can see above the grass.

0:02:420:02:48

Hey! Look what we've found!

0:02:560:02:59

If I can just climb up there, I'll get a much better view.

0:03:010:03:05

Wow! I can see a long way from up here!

0:03:070:03:12

Hey, Tatu, Moja! Look!

0:03:130:03:17

A whole family of elephants!

0:03:170:03:20

I am the king of the castle!

0:03:220:03:25

I love being up high.

0:03:250:03:29

Aw, Mama! Do we have to go already?

0:03:290:03:33

Come on, brothers! Mama's leaving. We'd better catch up.

0:03:370:03:43

Don't get left behind.

0:03:430:03:46

I love climbing. I was the only one to climb right to the top.

0:03:480:03:54

Tatu was a big scaredy cat.

0:03:540:03:56

But he's really good at wrestling.

0:03:560:03:59

MBILE GIGGLES

0:03:590:04:01

Uh-oh. Mama's calling. Come on, brothers.

0:04:030:04:08

Where is she going now?

0:04:130:04:16

She's climbed that tree!

0:04:170:04:19

That must be an amazing view.

0:04:190:04:22

I wish I could climb that high.

0:04:240:04:27

That is so cool!

0:04:290:04:32

I could do that. I'll show them who the best climber is.

0:04:330:04:39

Look at me, Mama!

0:04:390:04:41

I'm climbing the tree, just like you!

0:04:410:04:45

Hee hee! It's me, Mbile! I'm up here, right at the top!

0:04:460:04:52

I can see everything from up here.

0:04:520:04:55

Look at that!

0:04:550:04:57

I'm as high as the birds!

0:04:570:05:01

Whee!

0:05:010:05:04

I wish I had big, strong wings like that.

0:05:040:05:08

And look at those baboons over there in the treetops!

0:05:100:05:16

They're eating all the fruit.

0:05:160:05:18

And there are all the wildebeest. They eat grass. Ugh!

0:05:220:05:27

Mama! I can see so much from up here!

0:05:300:05:34

Mama? ..Mama Muta?

0:05:340:05:38

Where is she?

0:05:390:05:41

Ah! There she is, over there!

0:05:410:05:45

Mama Mutu, Tatu and Moja didn't see Mbile climbing up the tree.

0:05:450:05:50

They've gone off to look for him in the long grass.

0:05:500:05:54

They really are a long way away.

0:05:540:05:58

I'd better get down and catch up with them.

0:05:580:06:02

Oh... Oh...

0:06:020:06:05

Oh, this is quite high.

0:06:050:06:08

I don't like it.

0:06:090:06:11

I'm scared.

0:06:110:06:14

I'm stuck. I can't get down.

0:06:140:06:17

Mama! Come back!

0:06:170:06:20

Mama!

0:06:200:06:22

Mama Muta, please come back! Help!

0:06:220:06:28

Mama, please don't leave me behind!

0:06:280:06:32

They can't hear me. They're too far away.

0:06:350:06:39

Come back!

0:06:390:06:40

Please!

0:06:400:06:43

It's no use.

0:06:430:06:44

Right, what did Mama teach us about climbing down trees?

0:06:440:06:51

Um...

0:06:510:06:53

Stay calm, claws out, backwards.

0:06:530:06:59

Mama, up here!

0:06:590:07:03

I'm coming!

0:07:030:07:04

OK, try again.

0:07:040:07:07

Claws out wide. Use all four paws.

0:07:070:07:12

I wish I'd never come up here on my own.

0:07:120:07:15

Come on, Mbile, you can do it! Nearly there.

0:07:150:07:18

Ready...jump!

0:07:180:07:20

Yay!

0:07:200:07:22

Now I'd better find Mama and my brothers.

0:07:240:07:26

They must be here somewhere.

0:07:260:07:29

Mama!

0:07:290:07:31

Mama!

0:07:310:07:33

There they are!

0:07:330:07:35

They've come back for me.

0:07:350:07:37

Hi, Tatu. Hi, Moja.

0:07:410:07:43

I knew you wouldn't leave me.

0:07:430:07:46

Boo!

0:07:480:07:50

Did you see me up in the tree?

0:07:500:07:52

I went right up to the very top, and I wasn't scared, or anything.

0:07:520:07:57

Well, I wasn't THAT scared, anyway.

0:07:570:08:00

Mbile will think twice before climbing trees on his own again!

0:08:020:08:07

Little Mbile has had one big adventure.

0:08:070:08:11

But now he's safe with Mama Muta and his brothers Moja and Tatu,

0:08:110:08:17

back on top of the termite mound.

0:08:170:08:19

Now it's time to say goodbye, kwaheri,

0:08:210:08:26

from the wide, grassy plains of Africa.

0:08:260:08:30

Goodbye, wildebeest!

0:08:320:08:35

Kwaheri, wildebeest!

0:08:350:08:38

Goodbye, hawk.

0:08:380:08:41

Kwaheri, hawk!

0:08:410:08:43

Goodbye, baboon.

0:08:440:08:47

Kwaheri, baboon!

0:08:470:08:49

Goodbye, Mbile.

0:08:500:08:54

Kwaheri!

0:08:540:08:56

Africa is a land full of stories.

0:09:000:09:04

Whose story will we hear next time?
