:00:12. > :00:14.Hi, I'm Martin, It's Thursday and this is what going on in the world.

:00:15. > :00:17.The crack in the ice causing scientists to move house.

:00:18. > :00:27.And the duck having a game of chase with a tiger.

:00:28. > :00:33.There's just one day until this man, Donald Trump, officially takes

:00:34. > :00:35.over as the President of the United States,

:00:36. > :00:37.after winning the American election in November.

:00:38. > :00:39.Leah's travelled to Freeland in the state of Pennsylvania,

:00:40. > :00:44.which voted for Trump, to find out what kids

:00:45. > :00:48.there like about their new leader, and what they hope he'll do.

:00:49. > :00:57.It's a borough in Pennsylvania, home to just a few thousand people.

:00:58. > :00:59.Most people in this area chose Donald Trump

:01:00. > :01:05.And most pupils at this school are Trump fans.

:01:06. > :01:07.There's even a student Trump impressionist on hand

:01:08. > :01:20.This is your President, Donald J Trump.

:01:23. > :01:26.Have a good day, God bless and make America great again.

:01:27. > :01:29.So why has Trump made such a big impression here?

:01:30. > :01:33.I like Donald Trump because I think he's done a lot as a businessman

:01:34. > :01:37.and he can do a good amount of things for our country.

:01:38. > :01:40.Coal is a big part of Pennsylvania and the North East.

:01:41. > :01:43.I guess people like him because he promised

:01:44. > :01:51.that he was going to keep those jobs going.

:01:52. > :01:57.I like that he is a family guy, because, being, like,

:01:58. > :02:00.a politician and, like, having a family is hard to do.

:02:01. > :02:03.I hope that maybe he could bring jobs back, because there are so many

:02:04. > :02:06.people now who are losing jobs and it's very sad to see people's

:02:07. > :02:11.I don't like Donald Trump because I don't think

:02:12. > :02:23.But, at the same time, apart from that,

:02:24. > :02:28.You don't know what he's going to do next.

:02:29. > :02:31.While Trump came out on top in the election He goes

:02:32. > :02:33.into the White House as the most unpopular president in decades.

:02:34. > :02:37.He's got into trouble about comments he's made about women,

:02:38. > :02:38.using words like "pig, fat or ugly".

:02:39. > :02:40.And he's attacked different groups of people, too,

:02:41. > :02:43.Some people say he's not the right person

:02:44. > :02:51.to lead the country because

:02:52. > :02:54.he has a habit of lashing out at people he disagrees with.

:02:55. > :02:57.He just did all this for attention

:02:58. > :03:06.so that once he is inaugurated, he'll settle down a little bit.

:03:07. > :03:11.I feel he's like everybody - some people have good days and bad days

:03:12. > :03:15.but he's in the spotlight, so his bad days are worse than ours and his

:03:16. > :03:18.I feel if Donald Trump can bring those

:03:19. > :03:21.jobs, then all of our towns will be better places.

:03:22. > :03:25.I hope that he just makes our country a better country

:03:26. > :03:28.and helps stuff go up for our country.

:03:29. > :03:31.Next, primates like gorillas, orangutans and lemurs are facing

:03:32. > :03:35.a big problem with extinction, according to a new study.

:03:36. > :03:37.It looked at more than 500 species of primates

:03:38. > :03:40.and found that 60% of them were facing extinction problems.

:03:41. > :03:42.They blame it on forests being destroyed,

:03:43. > :03:44.which leaves the animals with nowhere to live.

:03:45. > :03:47.Some species of primates are also being hunted.

:03:48. > :03:54.Next, to the coldest place on planet earth, Antarctica.

:03:55. > :03:58.This huge crack has developed in the ice there and has caused some

:03:59. > :04:01.British scientists who are based nearby to move their research labs,

:04:02. > :04:14.This huge crack deep into the ice has been captured

:04:15. > :04:19.The crack is in an area called the Floating Brunt Ice Shelf,

:04:20. > :04:21.and just ten miles from the crack, British scientists are based

:04:22. > :04:24.at the Halley Research Station, which is made up of big,

:04:25. > :04:26.blue pods, with a big red pod in the middle.

:04:27. > :04:28.They've made the decision to move their base,

:04:29. > :04:31.because they don't know what will happen to the ice shelf

:04:32. > :04:34.Luckily the pods are designed to move, with the legs

:04:35. > :04:41.The next few months are important because the Antarctic winter will be

:04:42. > :04:43.starting, and the area will be pitch black for months.

:04:44. > :04:49.It also means that it'll be difficult to evacuate people

:04:50. > :04:51.from the area in the winter conditions, where temperatures get

:04:52. > :04:57.We've taken the prudent decision that, in the light of this

:04:58. > :05:01.new crack, it would be better and the safest thing to do to close

:05:02. > :05:03.the station in a controlled way and bring our team home,

:05:04. > :05:09.because their safety is paramount to us.

:05:10. > :05:11.The British Antarctic Survey also say that cracks in ice

:05:12. > :05:14.shelves aren't unusual, but this new crack is growing.

:05:15. > :05:17.They plan to go back to the area in November to carry on their work

:05:18. > :05:22.And until then, they will monitor the crack.

:05:23. > :05:30.Last up, here's something you don't see every day.

:05:31. > :05:32.That is a duck playing chase with a tiger!

:05:33. > :05:34.The cheeky duck flew into Jalur the tiger's enclosure

:05:35. > :05:37.Jalur chased the duck for 10 minutes

:05:38. > :05:39.but the duck was just too clever for him.

:05:40. > :05:43.In the end, Jalur got fed up and climbed out of the pool.

:05:44. > :05:54.You could be the tiger all the other Tigers laugh at now. That is all

:05:55. > :06:03.from me. We're back this afternoon with Jenny. See you soon. Goodbye.

:06:04. > :06:06.If you're a budding artist, why don't you send us your drawings?

:06:07. > :06:08.We want to see you drawing your favourite scenes

:06:09. > :06:12.You could draw Dangermouse saving the world,

:06:13. > :06:18.or perhaps Hacker just messing around here in HQ.

:06:19. > :06:21.all you need to do is send it off to us.
