0:00:12 > 0:00:14Hello, Hayley here with your Saturday Newsround.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17First to the Winter Olympics in South Korea, where there's been
0:00:17 > 0:00:21huge drama and disapointment today for Team GB speed-skater
0:00:21 > 0:00:22Elise Christie.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Take a look.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27British short-track skater Elise Christie was in tears
0:00:27 > 0:00:30as she was taken to hospital after crashing out of
0:00:30 > 0:00:32the 1500m semifinal.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36She collided with China's Li Jinyu on the final lap as she tried
0:00:36 > 0:00:44to finish in the top two.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47This is the fifth time that Elise has crashed out of her Olympic runs,
0:00:47 > 0:00:50after she was disqualified in three events at Sochi 2014,
0:00:50 > 0:00:53then missed out on a medal in the 500m a few days ago.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Team GB have said that the injury isn't serious and she's been taken
0:00:56 > 0:00:59to hospital as a precaution.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01And hudreds of well wishers have taken to social media
0:01:01 > 0:01:05to send tehir best wishes.
0:01:05 > 0:01:06-- their best wishes.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Everyone is hoping that Elise will be back on her feet later this
0:01:09 > 0:01:12week as she has one more chance to take back the reigns
0:01:12 > 0:01:13in the 1000 meters.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15It's not all looking glum for the British team though
0:01:15 > 0:01:18because there's a chance for more medals in the next hour.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Lizzy Yarnold and Laura Deas are in second
0:01:20 > 0:01:22and fourth place respectively going into the final
0:01:22 > 0:01:23run of the skeleton.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26Tune in tomorrow to see how they got on.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28Fingers crossed, ladies!
0:01:28 > 0:01:32But someone who has already got a medal in the bag for Team GB
0:01:32 > 0:01:33is teenager Izzy Atkin.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35She won bronze in the ski slopestyle competition
0:01:35 > 0:01:37and here's how she did it.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39This is the face of history.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42Great Britain's first ever Olympic medal on skis.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Slopestyle is about nailing the rails and avoiding
0:01:45 > 0:01:47the bumps on the jumps.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51And 19-year-old Izzy Atkin does it in style.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Born and raised in the United States to a British father and a Malaysian
0:01:54 > 0:01:57mother, Izzy perfected her skills on the slopes of Maine
0:01:57 > 0:01:59when she was just three.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Before her final run, Atkin was sitting in fourth place
0:02:03 > 0:02:06so this had to be flawless.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Biggest run of her life starts now.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Every twist, every jump, pushing it to the limit,
0:02:12 > 0:02:16she laid down a score good enough for third but could anyone else take
0:02:16 > 0:02:18a medal away from her?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Oh no!
0:02:21 > 0:02:22She's down.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26Great Britain's Izzy Atkin takes the bronze.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28There were tonnes of big names in the field, you know,
0:02:28 > 0:02:31it could have been anyone's.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33I was standing at the bottom after my third and final run
0:02:33 > 0:02:37and I knew I had skied the best I could and I was just waiting
0:02:37 > 0:02:40for those last three or four girls to drop and my heart was racing.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43But yeah, I can't believe it.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44Well, believe it, Izzy!
0:02:44 > 0:02:52You're an Olympic bronze medallist.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55The illegal hunting of animals, or poaching, is a big problem
0:02:55 > 0:02:56for wildlife in Africa.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Now, British soldiers are being to be sent to Africa
0:02:58 > 0:03:01to help protect animals like elephants, lions and rhinos.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04The aim is for them to help train rangers in Malawi after a succesfull
0:03:04 > 0:03:10trial of the scheme last year.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14Another animal who needs some help right now is the orangutan.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Now, a team from Chester Zoo is trying to save the animals
0:03:17 > 0:03:19in the country of Borneo in south-east Asia.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21They're doing it by repairing bits of the forest that
0:03:21 > 0:03:22have been damaged.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25The BBC's Victoria Gill has been finding out more.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Zoo programmes like this preserve small populations
0:03:28 > 0:03:31of Bornean orangutans but in the wild, they're being
0:03:31 > 0:03:34pushed rapidly towards extinction.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37Their rainforest home continues to be cleared
0:03:37 > 0:03:45for agriculture and mining.
0:03:46 > 0:03:47Scientists estimate that deforestation alone
0:03:47 > 0:03:49could wipe out another 45,000 orangutans here in
0:03:49 > 0:03:53the next three decades.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55But this bridge building project is a much-needed sign of hope.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Where the forest is fragmented, a team from Chester zoo
0:03:58 > 0:04:01and the Malaysian charity Hutan is physically reconnecting it
0:04:01 > 0:04:05with tough polyester straps.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08This remarkable footage captured by a tourist is the project's
0:04:08 > 0:04:16first sign of success.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19To actually see them using them and see them moving more
0:04:19 > 0:04:21freely across a habitat that is so fragmented
0:04:21 > 0:04:23is a really positive sign.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24This is very much a short-term solution.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27The long-term solution is to reforest the area.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Happy new year!
0:04:30 > 0:04:36Because today is the start of the Chinese New year.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Is also known as the lunar New Year.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41It's the Year Of The Dog and celebrations all over the world
0:04:41 > 0:04:42will kick off tonight.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Aysha has been finding out more.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45Xinnian kuaile!
0:04:45 > 0:04:46Or - Happy Chinese New Year!
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Now, you may be thinking, hang on a minute, we've
0:04:49 > 0:04:50already had New Year.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52But Chinese New Year is a bit different to the one
0:04:52 > 0:05:01we celebrate on January one.
0:05:01 > 0:05:02-- January 1st.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06In China, they use a traditional calendar, which follows
0:05:06 > 0:05:08the movements of the moon and Chinese New Year celebrates
0:05:08 > 0:05:09the start of a new moon.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Each year is represented by one of 12 animals
0:05:12 > 0:05:14from the Chinese Zodiac and every 12 years, this loops back
0:05:14 > 0:05:15around and start again.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17This year is the year of the dog.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20But what are the qualities of a person who was born
0:05:20 > 0:05:21in the year of the dog?
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Well, dog people are considered to be kind, loyal and honest.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26However, they're also thought to be stubborn,
0:05:26 > 0:05:30easy to anger and fussy.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34Famous people who were born in the year of the dog include
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Madonna, Justin Bieber and Donald Trump.
0:05:36 > 0:05:42So, if you're celebrating this year, Xinnian kuaile.
0:05:42 > 0:05:48That's all from me, we'll be back tomorrow.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52We will have all the sporting action from this afternoon as well as all
0:05:52 > 0:05:56of the news from the Winter Olympics for you so see you in the morning.
0:05:56 > 0:06:02Bye!
