CHILDREN: It's our planet!

0:00:020:00:06

ALL: It's our planet!

0:00:350:00:38

This is a shrew.

0:00:420:00:45

It's really small.

0:00:480:00:51

It's as small as a mouse and can run really fast.

0:00:510:00:57

While a shrew is very small,

0:01:010:01:06

an elephant is really big.

0:01:060:01:10

Even a baby elephant is much bigger than a shrew.

0:01:100:01:18

Really small animals have to look out for those really big feet.

0:01:180:01:25

This is a flounder, and it lives in the sea.

0:01:280:01:33

It's really thin.

0:01:330:01:36

It's so thin, it can lie on the sand and hardly anyone can spot it.

0:01:400:01:47

You can only see it when it wiggles its eyes,

0:01:540:01:58

or flaps its fins.

0:01:580:02:01

While the flounder is thin...

0:02:030:02:06

the whale is fat.

0:02:060:02:10

It has a big, round belly and has to eat lots of food every day.

0:02:100:02:16

It likes to make great splashes with its tail.

0:02:260:02:30

It's a great swimmer.

0:02:310:02:34

This is a tortoise.

0:02:410:02:44

And it's really slow.

0:02:440:02:48

It has to carry its shell around with it all day.

0:02:500:02:55

It takes its time doing everything.

0:02:550:02:59

While a tortoise is really slow...

0:03:040:03:08

a cheetah is really fast. It's super fast!

0:03:080:03:15

It can beat any animal in a race.

0:03:150:03:19

It has to be fast to catch its supper.

0:03:210:03:25

This is a giraffe, and it's really tall.

0:03:300:03:34

It has the longest neck of all...

0:03:340:03:38

..and very long legs!

0:03:390:03:43

It's so tall, it can reach the tops of trees for a nice, leafy lunch.

0:03:500:03:58

While a giraffe is tall...

0:03:580:04:03

a warthog is short.

0:04:030:04:06

It's legs aren't as long as a giraffe's.

0:04:060:04:11

It can't even reach to have a scratch, unless it uses a rock.

0:04:110:04:15

Warthogs love to scratch.

0:04:150:04:19

Big...

0:04:220:04:24

small!

0:04:240:04:26

Short...

0:04:260:04:28

tall!

0:04:280:04:30

Fat...

0:04:300:04:33

thin.

0:04:330:04:35

Fast...and

0:04:350:04:37

slow!

0:04:370:04:40

CHILDREN: It's our planet.

0:04:400:04:43

SHE BARKS I'm a barking dog!

0:04:450:04:50

Can you be an animal too?

0:04:500:04:52

SHE BARKS

0:04:520:04:54

What animal is this?

0:04:540:04:58

It's a tortoise.

0:04:590:05:02

And Izzy is a rabbit.

0:05:040:05:09

CHILDREN: It's our planet!

0:05:110:05:14

This lion mum is feeding her young.

0:05:190:05:22

Feeding is very important for baby animals

0:05:220:05:25

because it makes them grow up big and strong.

0:05:250:05:29

Lots of animal mums make milk which their babies suck on.

0:05:290:05:34

These are meerkats

0:05:340:05:38

and there are the babies enjoying a tasty drink of their mother's milk.

0:05:380:05:43

What a lot of hungry mouths to feed.

0:05:460:05:49

Did you know that dolphins also suckle milk from their mum?

0:06:000:06:06

The baby needs to swim on its back whilst the mum squirts the milk into its mouth.

0:06:060:06:13

Baby birds don't drink milk,

0:06:180:06:21

instead their parents collect food for them.

0:06:210:06:25

These hungry chicks are eating some juicy caterpillars - like this one.

0:06:250:06:32

BIRDSONG

0:06:320:06:37

This is a flycatcher.

0:06:440:06:48

A flycatcher's chicks love eating flies as well as caterpillars.

0:06:480:06:54

Before these chicks grow up and leave their nest,

0:06:540:06:58

they'll eat thousands of caterpillars.

0:06:580:07:01

Collecting food keeps Mum and Dad very busy.

0:07:020:07:08

This pelican is diving for fish.

0:07:090:07:13

Got one!

0:07:150:07:18

Pelicans carry fish back to their chicks.

0:07:220:07:26

To feed their young the parents must open their mouths

0:07:280:07:32

so that the chicks can reach way down their throats for the fish.

0:07:320:07:39

This bird is a tern.

0:07:390:07:42

Whilst Dad has been busy fishing, Mum's been looking after the chick.

0:07:420:07:48

This kingfisher chick is hungry...

0:08:020:08:05

..and gets fish for its dinner.

0:08:210:08:24

The baby kingfisher will need some more though.

0:08:340:08:36

A growing chick needs to eat more than 12 fish in one day.

0:08:360:08:41

Baby animals need lots of food to grow up big and strong.

0:08:440:08:50
