On Roar today, it's the great parrot talent show!

0:00:020:00:06

We'll meet Bobby, Jake and Matilda!

0:00:060:00:10

They all want to be stars,

0:00:100:00:12

but whoot the X-tra talent to win the judges' hearts?

0:00:120:00:15

Hello, and welcome to Roar.

0:00:430:00:45

I'm Rani and this is Johny.

0:00:450:00:47

-But I don't know what he's doing!

-SCREECHES

0:00:470:00:49

-Johny!

-What? I'm talking to the sea lions!

0:00:490:00:51

It sounds like a really interesting conversation, what's going on?

0:00:510:00:55

They're saying, "You have got a brilliant show coming up."

0:00:550:00:58

I'm saying, "I know, shall we get on with it?"

0:00:580:01:00

Sounds like a plan!

0:01:000:01:02

Coming up today:

0:01:040:01:05

There's a hair-raising moment

0:01:050:01:07

when MC the snake goes AWOL in Johny's afro.

0:01:070:01:10

All right, hang on, hang on. Keep still.

0:01:100:01:12

A new sea lion has come to the park,

0:01:120:01:16

but the vet's been called because she's got a problem.

0:01:160:01:20

Grrrrr!

0:01:200:01:21

And Toby the Roar Ranger must feed the killer carnivores.

0:01:210:01:26

He's going to need nerves of steel

0:01:260:01:28

because he's going right in with them!

0:01:280:01:30

HE HOWLS

0:01:300:01:33

Hello, and welcome to the Parrot Talent Show,

0:01:460:01:48

the show that's hoping to find Longleat's most talented parrot.

0:01:480:01:52

That's right, Johny, so let's get this talent show on the road.

0:01:520:01:56

Come on in, John, with your first parrot.

0:01:560:01:58

OK, good afternoon, judges, this is Matilda.

0:02:020:02:04

She's going to count.

0:02:040:02:06

This will be interesting to see, I hope Matilda pulls this off.

0:02:060:02:09

OK, so before we get started

0:02:090:02:11

I actually need a number between one and five, so Johny?

0:02:110:02:15

-Three.

-OK, three.

0:02:150:02:17

Let's try that. Matilda, are you ready?

0:02:170:02:19

Can we please have three bell rings?

0:02:190:02:21

Are you ready for this? Can we have three.

0:02:210:02:23

RINGS BELL TWICE

0:02:230:02:25

-Do you want another go at this, John?

-Bit of stage fright.

0:02:250:02:29

Let's give Matilda one more go. Come on Matilda, you can do it.

0:02:290:02:32

You've got everyone rooting for you.

0:02:320:02:35

They're giving us another chance. Can we have - ready -

0:02:350:02:37

can we have three bell rings. Go.

0:02:370:02:39

RINGS BELL SIX TIMES

0:02:390:02:42

Next parrot.

0:02:420:02:43

OK, so we're going to go on to the next parrot.

0:02:430:02:47

This is Jake, and he's not going to do any counting,

0:02:470:02:50

he's actually going to drive car.

0:02:500:02:53

Jake has his license and he'll be driving a car.

0:02:530:02:55

This sounds impressive.

0:02:550:02:57

Obviously it's not going to be a fully sized car.

0:02:570:03:00

-Jake owns his very own parrot sports car.

-Woo!

0:03:000:03:06

Jake, you going to go for a spin in your car, mate?

0:03:060:03:08

Can you go for a bit of a drive? Come on, Jake.

0:03:080:03:11

Come all the way down the table.

0:03:110:03:13

-All right!

-You, Jake, are what this competition is all about.

0:03:190:03:25

So he came out, and I was so nervous when I saw that car, and then...

0:03:250:03:30

he just looks like a regular parrot, and then he just started to drive the vehicle!

0:03:300:03:34

Difficult act to follow. Who've we got coming up next?

0:03:340:03:38

Bobby, right on the end here.

0:03:380:03:40

Bobby is actually going to do an impression.

0:03:400:03:42

He's going to do an impression of a fruit bat.

0:03:420:03:45

Wow. This should be interesting.

0:03:460:03:50

# Batman! #

0:03:510:03:53

Oh, Jake! Jake's trying to upstage his mate.

0:03:530:03:56

Jake's actually completely upstaging Bobby. Bobby, don't stand for that.

0:03:560:04:02

Do yours as well. You can't let Jake upstage you.

0:04:020:04:05

Oh... There we go.

0:04:050:04:08

Wow! I thought that was great, Rani.

0:04:080:04:11

You see, for me, I just don't think his heart was in it.

0:04:110:04:16

Thanks, John.

0:04:160:04:18

We're going to have a little think about the act.

0:04:180:04:21

Hey, John, we're going to put you out of your misery.

0:04:320:04:36

But there can only be one winner,

0:04:360:04:39

so we can reveal the winner

0:04:390:04:42

of the Parrot Talent Show is...

0:04:420:04:47

Jake.

0:04:510:04:53

Congratulations, Jake, in the end you squawked it.

0:04:550:05:00

You were beak and claws above the rest.

0:05:000:05:02

You proved you are not a bird brain.

0:05:020:05:04

So you are the winner of today's competition.

0:05:040:05:07

Here at Longleat, there are five Californian sea lions

0:05:190:05:22

swimming loose in Half Mile Lake.

0:05:220:05:24

Buster, the big male.

0:05:250:05:27

Three females - Jojo, Nancy and Zook.

0:05:270:05:30

And the new baby who's been making a splash. Little Riley.

0:05:300:05:36

# Splish-splash, I was taking a bath

0:05:360:05:39

# Long about a Saturday night... #

0:05:390:05:42

This series, we've been following Riley's progress,

0:05:430:05:47

but now there's a new sea lion on the way.

0:05:470:05:49

Though this time, it's not a baby.

0:05:490:05:51

Keeper Sarah Keefe has the news.

0:05:510:05:54

Today we have a new sea lion arriving, very shortly hopefully.

0:05:540:05:59

A one-year-old female.

0:05:590:06:01

We have lost a couple of sea lions over the years, through old age.

0:06:010:06:05

Also we need new females so we can get some more babies in the future.

0:06:050:06:09

So it's all about keeping the group going.

0:06:090:06:12

But the new girl won't go straight in the lake with the others.

0:06:120:06:16

She needs to get used to the place first.

0:06:160:06:19

We'll keep her up in a separate holding pen in another location.

0:06:190:06:22

Just giving us a chance to get to know her,

0:06:220:06:25

letting her get to know us, before we throw her out

0:06:250:06:29

into the big wide world of the lake,

0:06:290:06:31

and meeting all the other sea lions.

0:06:310:06:33

Right now, Sarah's looking forward to meeting her.

0:06:330:06:36

Oh, it's always exciting to get new animals in.

0:06:360:06:39

Definitely. Always exciting for us.

0:06:390:06:41

It's exciting for the other sea lions as well,

0:06:410:06:43

to have a new person about.

0:06:430:06:45

But, yeah, looking forward to it.

0:06:450:06:47

I believe her name is Sally. Sally the sea lion.

0:06:470:06:51

It all sounds pretty straightforward,

0:06:520:06:55

but Sarah will soon discover that looking after Sally

0:06:550:06:57

is not going to be so easy.

0:06:570:07:00

What goes 99 plonk?

0:07:060:07:08

-Don't know.

-A centipede with a wooden leg.

0:07:080:07:10

What do you get when you cross a skunk with a table tennis ball?

0:07:140:07:18

Ping pong.

0:07:180:07:19

Baaaaa!

0:07:190:07:22

Where do sheeps like to go on their holiday?

0:07:220:07:25

I don't know.

0:07:250:07:27

Baa-bados!

0:07:270:07:29

Our Roar Ranger today is Toby, and he's ready to go wild!

0:07:400:07:43

I want to be a Roar Ranger because I really love animals.

0:07:460:07:50

Grrrrr!

0:07:500:07:52

I would like to work with lions and tigers

0:07:520:07:55

because they're really beautiful.

0:07:550:07:58

Not to mention a lot larger than the pets Toby has at home.

0:07:580:08:01

Now let's find out what's 'lion' in wait for him today. Get it?

0:08:010:08:07

"Toby, today you are going to feed the tigers, lions and wolves.

0:08:070:08:11

"It should be a meaty experience!"

0:08:110:08:14

HOWLS

0:08:140:08:16

Yes, lions, tigers and wolves. The awesomest things on earth!

0:08:160:08:21

He's also going to be working with a pretty awesome keeper - Bob Trollope.

0:08:210:08:26

The first thing we've got to do

0:08:280:08:30

is put the meat on the truck, so let's go, right?

0:08:300:08:33

Bob makes it look easy, but those chunks are huge and slippery.

0:08:330:08:38

That's it, it's heavy, and if you can just chuck it in there.

0:08:380:08:42

Lions, tigers and wolves are carnivores.

0:08:480:08:51

They eat almost nothing but meat.

0:08:510:08:54

To get it in the wild, they have to hunt, chase and kill.

0:08:540:08:58

So they're armed with deadly weapons -

0:08:580:09:01

razor-sharp teeth and claws like knives.

0:09:010:09:04

And now Toby's about to meet them from the prey's point of view.

0:09:050:09:10

I feel excited,

0:09:100:09:13

but scared. It's just going to be fun if they don't eat me!

0:09:130:09:19

First up are the Amur tigers.

0:09:210:09:23

These magnificent cats used to roam free across large parts of Asia,

0:09:230:09:28

but now they're only found in the far east of Siberia.

0:09:280:09:31

They've been hunted by people and suffered badly from habitat loss,

0:09:310:09:35

so they're an endangered species, with less than 500 left in the wild.

0:09:350:09:40

Here they are.

0:09:400:09:42

They're just trying to get to the feed wagon at the moment.

0:09:420:09:45

The reason why they're chasing it, they're hunting this truck.

0:09:450:09:49

Here she is.

0:09:490:09:51

Having a bite on the tyre, look.

0:09:510:09:54

-We better give them some food, don't you think?

-Yeah.

0:09:540:09:58

Let's get over here then.

0:09:580:09:59

All right, now we have to use this stuff.

0:09:590:10:02

There you go, I'll give it to you. Got it?

0:10:020:10:04

Yeah.

0:10:040:10:06

And another piece. This is really heavy, this one.

0:10:060:10:09

Got it? Whoa!

0:10:090:10:11

This is almost as tall as you.

0:10:110:10:13

An adult tiger can eat up to 27 kilos of meat in a day,

0:10:170:10:21

and if they did that for a week,

0:10:210:10:23

it would be like scoffing more than five Tobys!

0:10:230:10:25

-That was just brilliant! It was just amazing!

-Did you really enjoy that?

0:10:290:10:33

Yeah.

0:10:330:10:34

But the tigers are just the start of Toby's meat feast.

0:10:350:10:39

It's time to feed the lions, and they're really hungry.

0:10:390:10:42

They've been called the King of the Beasts

0:10:460:10:48

and they used to be big all over Africa.

0:10:480:10:51

But like the tiger,

0:10:510:10:53

hunting and habitat loss have taken a toll,

0:10:530:10:56

and now the lion is classified as a vulnerable species.

0:10:560:10:59

Here in the park there are two separate prides of lions,

0:11:010:11:05

and they have to be fed one at a time.

0:11:050:11:07

Go on! Go on!

0:11:090:11:12

Go on!

0:11:140:11:15

There they are!

0:11:150:11:18

-They are massive!

-Really good, aren't they?

0:11:210:11:23

Never seen a lion up this close before.

0:11:230:11:26

Haven't you? You don't want to get any closer

0:11:260:11:29

because you might be their dinner then!

0:11:290:11:32

The lions here haven't forgotten how to hunt.

0:11:330:11:36

They still chase their prey and work as a team.

0:11:360:11:40

We could fit you down there, couldn't we! Shall we?

0:11:470:11:50

No!

0:11:500:11:52

It's just really fun to watch the lions chase the vehicle

0:11:520:11:59

when it's driving along with all the meat in it.

0:11:590:12:01

It's just amazing.

0:12:010:12:03

And when the meat is all out and every lion has a piece,

0:12:100:12:14

it's a chance for Toby to get a really good look at them.

0:12:140:12:17

See what they're doing?

0:12:190:12:20

They hold it with their claws, their claws are very important,

0:12:200:12:23

and they hold the meat still, and then she'll pull pieces off.

0:12:230:12:28

And her tongue is very coarse, very raspy.

0:12:280:12:34

A lion's tongue is covered in tiny rough spines,

0:12:340:12:37

which means they can lick the meat right off the bones.

0:12:370:12:40

It's amazing this massive beast is just eating in front of us!

0:12:420:12:47

But Toby isn't finished yet,

0:12:470:12:49

and the last carnivore is the really scary one.

0:12:490:12:53

When you're feeding these guys, you have to get out of the truck.

0:12:530:12:57

Looking after young and old animals can be a full-time job,

0:13:190:13:23

but how do you look after an animal that isn't even born?

0:13:230:13:27

-I'm here with keeper Jo... Hi, Jo.

-Hiya.

0:13:270:13:29

..to find out how you do this.

0:13:290:13:31

-Who have we got here?

-This is Poppadom.

0:13:310:13:33

The pancake tortoise.

0:13:330:13:34

Yeah, that's it. She's one of our female pancake tortoises, yeah.

0:13:340:13:38

-So is she pregnant?

-Well, she's not any more...

-Oh?

0:13:380:13:42

But I do have something to show you in this box here.

0:13:420:13:45

All right. Have we got baby Poppadoms?

0:13:450:13:47

We might do.

0:13:470:13:49

-If I show you in here, this is our incubator.

-Oh, my goodness!

0:13:490:13:53

We have some eggs in here and these are obviously pancake eggs.

0:13:530:13:57

-They look huge!

-They do.

0:13:570:13:59

Yeah, from something very flat, yeah, they're quite long, aren't they?

0:13:590:14:02

-They are.

-They actually kind of lay them, kind of every,

0:14:020:14:07

four to six weeks.

0:14:070:14:08

They don't lay them all in one big clutch, like a normal tortoise,

0:14:080:14:11

because they're very flat and can't store all those eggs in their body.

0:14:110:14:14

How long will it be before they hatch?

0:14:140:14:17

Well, with pancake eggs it's really, really weird,

0:14:170:14:20

because, unlike a Mediterranean tortoise you can normally say,

0:14:200:14:23

so many days, with these we've found that it can be anywhere

0:14:230:14:26

-from kind of three months to six months.

-Really?

0:14:260:14:30

Yeah. With these you've just really literally

0:14:300:14:33

got to keep them in the incubator and just kind of be very patient.

0:14:330:14:36

OK. shall we put the lid back on so they don't get too cold?

0:14:360:14:41

So how long before those tiny little eggs become as big as poppadom?

0:14:410:14:44

Well, I've got two more to show you here, Rani. Give you an idea.

0:14:440:14:47

-Hello, you.

-Ones that we hatched earlier on in the year.

0:14:470:14:51

-We've got Kwanza here, who's nine months old.

-Nine months!

0:14:510:14:56

Yeah. And we've got Kanwi, who is actually, believe it or not,

0:14:560:15:01

look at the size, is six months.

0:15:010:15:03

So Kanwi's kind of taken over Kwanza at the moment.

0:15:030:15:06

That is unbelievable.

0:15:060:15:07

-So he's nine months and he's six months.

-Yeah.

0:15:070:15:10

So they grow quite rapidly, then.

0:15:100:15:12

They do. It's more of a gradual growth.

0:15:120:15:14

You look one day and you think "Oh, they don't look that big,"

0:15:140:15:17

and then maybe go away for a couple of weeks and come back

0:15:170:15:20

and they do look noticeably bigger.

0:15:200:15:22

Well, Jo, it's great, and I'm really looking forward to coming back.

0:15:220:15:25

Before I leave, can I check they haven't hatched?

0:15:250:15:27

I'll have a little peep. They're all still there.

0:15:270:15:29

You know, I'll come back every day, just keep checking

0:15:290:15:32

if that's what I've got to do. Thank you.

0:15:320:15:34

Sally, the new sea lion has arrived at the park, and is being kept

0:15:480:15:52

in a pen away from the others while she gets used to the place.

0:15:520:15:56

Keeper Sarah's really pleased, but there are a couple of things

0:15:560:16:00

she's a little bit concerned about.

0:16:000:16:02

We noticed obviously that she's got some bald patches on her,

0:16:020:16:06

a lot of fur loss down to the skin.

0:16:060:16:09

We've never seen that here before.

0:16:090:16:11

It is quite common in other collections as well.

0:16:110:16:14

Obviously they go through a yearly moult where they will drop their fur.

0:16:140:16:18

We've never seen to it this degree.

0:16:180:16:19

It's not just her fur that's worrying Sarah,

0:16:210:16:24

she's off her food too.

0:16:240:16:25

Sea lions here are fed mackerel,

0:16:250:16:27

but Sally's never had that kind of fish before.

0:16:270:16:31

Where she came from, she was primarily fed herring.

0:16:310:16:33

It does take time to get them used to a different sort of fish.

0:16:330:16:37

It doesn't take them too long to realise that

0:16:370:16:39

"Ooh, this tastes nice as well."

0:16:390:16:41

But to be on the safe side,

0:16:410:16:43

Sarah's called in the safari park vet, Duncan Williams.

0:16:430:16:47

Is she actually itchy at all, scratching those areas or...?

0:16:470:16:50

No, not too much. They don't seem to bother her too much.

0:16:500:16:54

She's in pretty good condition, isn't she? Good size.

0:16:540:16:56

Yeah. She's looking nice and healthy there.

0:16:560:16:58

Sally's condition, that is her muscles and weight,

0:16:580:17:03

is more important than her other problems.

0:17:030:17:06

She's got these horrible bald areas which we are not used to seeing,

0:17:060:17:10

but I don't think that's too much of an issue.

0:17:100:17:13

I think that will grow back

0:17:130:17:14

when she comes into the cold weather later in the year.

0:17:140:17:18

I think the eating,

0:17:180:17:20

going off her food a wee bit,

0:17:200:17:22

it tends to happen with sea lions when they are moved around,

0:17:220:17:26

when they're put in new cages. It's probably a stress-related thing.

0:17:260:17:29

As she settles in and gets used to Sarah and Mark

0:17:290:17:33

and the yard and conditions here,

0:17:330:17:36

she'll probably eat normally again soon.

0:17:360:17:39

Condition-wise she's great.

0:17:390:17:42

She's very relaxed, and she's a lovely little individual.

0:17:420:17:45

Let's hope the other sea lions think so too,

0:17:470:17:50

because very soon the new girl will be meeting them

0:17:500:17:52

for the first time down in the lake.

0:17:520:17:54

Will they welcome Sally or take against her?

0:17:540:17:59

We'll see what happens later in the series.

0:17:590:18:02

Calling all you gamers!

0:18:070:18:11

Here's today's code for the Roar game on the CBBC website.

0:18:110:18:17

By the way, have you checked out feeding time yet?

0:18:170:18:21

Just click on the link and follow it through.

0:18:210:18:23

And when you get to the end you might earn an extra treat for your park.

0:18:230:18:27

Happy gaming!

0:18:270:18:28

I've done some strange things while presenting on Roar,

0:18:500:18:52

but few things stranger than this,

0:18:520:18:54

cos one animal at the park is going to get a beauty treatment.

0:18:540:18:57

It's time for a pygmy goat pedicure.

0:18:570:18:59

-How are you doing, you all right, Bev?

-Hi, Johny.

0:18:590:19:01

-I've brought my nail file.

-Right, maybe you won't need that.

0:19:010:19:05

I think these are more for the job.

0:19:050:19:08

-I knew that, it was just to make you laugh.

-OK!

0:19:080:19:11

So, yeah, do we try and capture one, or...?

0:19:110:19:15

Basically, we've got our three mums and five babies here.

0:19:150:19:19

They're only seven weeks' old, and due for their first trim.

0:19:190:19:22

I'm not sure how it's going to go, but we can catch one of the babies.

0:19:220:19:26

They are so cute, these babies.

0:19:260:19:28

-Are they quite friendly, can I just pick one up?

-Yes.

0:19:280:19:32

Come here, little one.

0:19:320:19:35

Here we go!

0:19:350:19:37

I'm going to go for this one, this kind of bigger one.

0:19:370:19:40

There you go. Good boy or girl. Right, OK.

0:19:400:19:44

You've got Jerry there. He's a little boy.

0:19:440:19:47

Put him down on the table.

0:19:470:19:49

If you can hold him nice and tightly,

0:19:490:19:51

he hasn't had this done before, so he might wiggle a bit.

0:19:510:19:54

I'm guessing you have done this before?

0:19:540:19:56

-I have, yes.

-Anything that I definitely do or don't need to do?

0:19:560:20:00

Just make sure he doesn't move when I'm holding his foot.

0:20:000:20:04

Is that all right?

0:20:040:20:06

-Yeah, OK. Is it causing any pain?

-It's not causing any pain at all.

0:20:060:20:09

You're just snipping off the side of the hoof cos it's got a bit long.

0:20:100:20:13

Cos they're in a grass paddock

0:20:130:20:15

it doesn't get worn down very well like wild goats' would.

0:20:150:20:18

Why is it important to do this?

0:20:180:20:20

You wouldn't want them growing too long because then they can get...

0:20:200:20:24

Sorry! I'm so sorry!

0:20:240:20:26

It can get discomfort for them

0:20:260:20:27

and you could get some foot rot in there as well.

0:20:270:20:30

You have to keep them nice and short.

0:20:300:20:32

-How often will you do this?

-We try and do it every four to six weeks.

0:20:320:20:36

Do they know when it's pedicure time?

0:20:360:20:38

They do, but they get extra nuts

0:20:380:20:40

and lots of treats to get them in this catching pen.

0:20:400:20:43

They like that bit but they don't like having to stay still.

0:20:430:20:47

Is it easier to do the younger ones or the older ones?

0:20:470:20:50

The older ones, cos they're used to having it done.

0:20:500:20:53

Jerry's too wiggly at the moment, but every four weeks we'll do this

0:20:530:20:56

and he'll get better and better.

0:20:560:20:58

I think that's Jerry done, is it?

0:20:580:21:00

-That's fine.

-There you go, Jerry.

0:21:000:21:02

Good boy.

0:21:020:21:03

He's happy now. That's one down, a few more to go.

0:21:030:21:07

I thought before we do the rest of them,

0:21:070:21:09

my toenails are getting a bit long. Do you fancy...?

0:21:090:21:12

No. Maybe not.

0:21:120:21:13

So far today, Toby the Roar ranger has helped keeper Bob

0:21:240:21:28

to feed the tigers and two separate prides of lions.

0:21:280:21:31

Taking them their meat is safe enough inside the wagon.

0:21:310:21:37

But Bob and Toby's next customers are the wolves.

0:21:370:21:42

And to feed those guys you have to get out -

0:21:420:21:44

right inside their enclosure.

0:21:440:21:46

Toby's up for it, but does he have the muscle?

0:21:530:21:56

Come on!

0:21:560:21:59

That's it. Now pull!

0:22:030:22:05

He's got the muscle, he just hasn't got the weight.

0:22:070:22:10

That piece of meat is almost heavier than him!

0:22:100:22:13

If you push, I'll pull.

0:22:130:22:16

Ready? Go on, then.

0:22:160:22:19

They need a big piece of meat cos there's lots of wolves here,

0:22:210:22:24

and they're very hungry.

0:22:240:22:26

Toby can come out here with the wolves

0:22:270:22:30

only because he's with a trained keeper.

0:22:300:22:32

Bob's very experienced, and knows these animals inside out.

0:22:320:22:37

What will the size of the prey be when they're hunting?

0:22:370:22:41

Well, you look at the size of them.

0:22:410:22:43

They could take something down five to ten times bigger than them.

0:22:430:22:47

Something like a bison.

0:22:470:22:49

But surprisingly, wolves are very cautious and

0:22:510:22:55

they won't come over to the meat until Bob and Toby have moved away.

0:22:550:23:01

What they are doing now is just sniffing where we've been

0:23:010:23:04

walking around, just to make sure it's safe to go in and eat that.

0:23:040:23:08

You will find one of them will come in and he will test it

0:23:080:23:12

to see whether it's still alive or not.

0:23:120:23:14

If it's alive, it could get up and kick them and hurt them.

0:23:140:23:18

So they send one in just to see whether it's dead

0:23:180:23:20

and then the rest will come in and eat.

0:23:200:23:23

Which is the most dominant out of all of them?

0:23:230:23:26

The most dominant one is called the alpha male.

0:23:260:23:29

That's that one, the white one

0:23:290:23:30

walking over there with two tips of his ears missing.

0:23:300:23:33

As soon as he starts eating,

0:23:330:23:34

the others will come in and start feeding.

0:23:340:23:37

Although wolves don't exactly have table manners,

0:23:380:23:42

this is not a free-for-all.

0:23:420:23:45

The alpha male and alpha female

0:23:450:23:47

make sure that everyone behaves themselves at mealtime.

0:23:470:23:50

Toby, what noises do wolves make?

0:23:550:23:58

They howl.

0:23:580:23:59

HE HOWLS

0:24:000:24:03

I think you've got them worried, Toby.

0:24:030:24:07

It's time for the Roar ranger,

0:24:100:24:11

or rather Howl ranger, to head off.

0:24:110:24:14

Hang on, the job's not finished yet.

0:24:140:24:18

There's only one thing left to do now.

0:24:180:24:20

That's actually wash the feed wagon out.

0:24:200:24:22

-Are you up for that?

-Yeah.

-Right.

0:24:220:24:24

Toby, you're doing so well.

0:24:300:24:32

I'm going to leave you to it and I'll go for a cup of tea.

0:24:320:24:35

Cheers, mate.

0:24:350:24:37

HE LAUGHS

0:24:370:24:40

My favourite bit was the lions, because they were beautiful.

0:24:400:24:44

I think it's one of these things

0:24:440:24:46

that you won't forget in a long time.

0:24:460:24:48

It's something that he can tell his grandchildren -

0:24:480:24:51

that he's actually fed lions.

0:24:510:24:53

Being a big cat keeper today was amazing.

0:24:530:24:55

Before we leave you today, we thought we'd slither up

0:25:130:25:16

and meet keeper Jo and her pals, the corn snakes.

0:25:160:25:19

-Hi, Jo.

-Hi.

-A little bit greedy - two snakes.

0:25:190:25:22

-You can help me out.

-Share the love!

0:25:220:25:24

-You can have Orville.

-Nice!

0:25:240:25:25

And this one is called MC, which stands for mischievous.

0:25:250:25:30

-And I get the mischievous one?!

-You get that one.

0:25:300:25:32

You say they are both corn snakes -

0:25:320:25:34

they are such different colours. Why is that?

0:25:340:25:37

They are both corn snakes

0:25:370:25:38

but they come in lots of different colour morphs.

0:25:380:25:41

It's just the way they come out.

0:25:410:25:43

Lots of colourations - reds, yellows, oranges, golds.

0:25:430:25:46

HE SCREAMS

0:25:460:25:48

-Is he in your hair?

-Where's he gone?

-He's all right.

0:25:480:25:51

He does knot your hair, though.

0:25:510:25:52

-He does that to me.

-I thought he'd bitten me.

0:25:520:25:55

Keep your head still.

0:25:550:25:57

God, it is as well.

0:25:570:25:58

-Hang on, keep still.

-If you let him keep going,

0:25:580:26:01

won't he follow through?

0:26:010:26:03

I'm going to let him keep going through.

0:26:030:26:05

-If you let go...

-The many dangers of being a Roar presenter.

0:26:050:26:08

He's coming, he's coming.

0:26:080:26:10

Why do they like to go in these kind of small spaces?

0:26:100:26:15

Because of the warmth.

0:26:150:26:16

Around your neck and your hair,

0:26:160:26:17

anywhere it's warm, in your armpits, wherever!

0:26:170:26:20

-So they are finding my Afro pretty warm?

-Yes.

0:26:200:26:23

Look at this! This is incredible.

0:26:230:26:26

I've done some things in my time,

0:26:260:26:28

but I've never had a snake caught up in my hair.

0:26:280:26:30

-I think he's trying to tell me I need a haircut.

-Here he comes.

0:26:300:26:34

THEY CHEER

0:26:340:26:35

That's brilliant. I've got to ask, because that was a bit hair-raising,

0:26:350:26:39

are they dangerous snakes?

0:26:390:26:41

Not at all, totally safe.

0:26:410:26:43

They are constrictors, not venomous.

0:26:430:26:45

Once they've caught their prey

0:26:450:26:47

with their mouths, they squeeze it a little.

0:26:470:26:51

Before he gets any more ideas, we should sneak out of here.

0:26:510:26:54

Why don't you lot check out what's coming up

0:26:540:26:56

on the next episode of Roar?

0:26:560:26:58

Next time... Harriet the barn owl is an OAP,

0:26:590:27:03

but she's coming out of retirement and going back to flying school.

0:27:030:27:08

Are you never too old to learn, or will the training go horribly wrong?

0:27:080:27:12

Ferrets are cute, cuddly and adapted to squeeze through small holes.

0:27:120:27:17

But how small can they go?

0:27:170:27:19

I'll be finding out.

0:27:190:27:21

And we've got some more tall stories

0:27:210:27:23

when this lot quiz keeper Andy on his giraffe knowledge.

0:27:230:27:27

That is the most ridiculous question ever!

0:27:270:27:30

That's all on the next Roar.

0:27:300:27:32

Don't miss it!
