0:02:40 > 0:02:43OSTRICH SNORES

0:02:43 > 0:02:48- Tomorrow?!- I must get up to the moo-oo-oo-oo-oon!

0:02:48 > 0:02:52Listen, Jackal. If you want to get up to that moon so much,

0:02:52 > 0:02:55do something about it.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58But I've tried everything. Yar-ooo!

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Jumping?

0:03:00 > 0:03:01Doesn't work.

0:03:01 > 0:03:02- Climbing?- Nuh-uh.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04What about flying?

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Flying?

0:03:06 > 0:03:08I don't know... Flying.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Get some feathers.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Fly up to the moon yourself.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14Where will I get feathers?

0:03:14 > 0:03:16Oh... Huh!

0:03:16 > 0:03:18I know just the place.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Walk this way.

0:03:23 > 0:03:26Spider. I can't walk that way. I'm a jackal.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28Come on.

0:03:29 > 0:03:33Look at the size of those feathers, hmm?

0:03:33 > 0:03:36Yeah, I could spin them into lovely wings,

0:03:36 > 0:03:37just for you.

0:03:37 > 0:03:38Really?

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Then I could fly up to the moon.

0:03:41 > 0:03:42Mm-hm.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48Oh, that's just not going to be enough.

0:03:50 > 0:03:51Ah-hah!

0:03:59 > 0:04:02Spider, Ostrich will wake up.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04Oh, nothing wakes Ostrich.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Luckily, she sleeps like a buffalo.

0:04:09 > 0:04:10OK, then.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12I'll start at the other end.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18He-he-he! Then I could fly up to the moon.

0:04:25 > 0:04:26SNORING

0:04:26 > 0:04:28Oh, dear. Look at Ostrich.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31Poor thing.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33Some beast has been up to something.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35Bet it was Hyena.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37He's always up to something.

0:04:37 > 0:04:41- What are you going to say to Ostrich?- "Nice legs"?

0:04:41 > 0:04:42ALL LAUGH

0:04:42 > 0:04:44- But they are. - We have to be honest.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Jambo, everyone! He-he!

0:04:48 > 0:04:49Hoo-hoo-hoo.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52It's a bit chilly this morning. Hoo-hoo-hoo.

0:04:52 > 0:04:57Uh... Well, that might be because, um...

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Ostrich, you have been plucked.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01Some naughty beast

0:05:01 > 0:05:05has plucked all the feathers from your neck and legs.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08But if you don't mind me saying, they do look rather nice.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11Oh, oh, oh.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13My legs have been plucked!

0:05:13 > 0:05:14And your neck.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16My...my neck, too?

0:05:16 > 0:05:18My neck and my legs!

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Whatever do I look like?

0:05:20 > 0:05:22A very big chicken?

0:05:22 > 0:05:23Elephant!

0:05:23 > 0:05:25LAUGHTER

0:05:25 > 0:05:27Jambo, everyone! What's up?

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Nothing. Nothing.

0:05:30 > 0:05:31Ha-ha-ha!

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Who is the overgrown chicken? Ha-ha!

0:05:33 > 0:05:37Hyena, did you have anything to do with this?

0:05:37 > 0:05:39Me? Ha-ha-ha-ha!

0:05:39 > 0:05:40No.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Mmm. Yum-yum yummy!

0:05:42 > 0:05:45Perfect for a tiny, weeny,

0:05:45 > 0:05:48- little nip.- Hey, hey!- Hyena!

0:05:48 > 0:05:51- Leave Ostrich alone. - Just a little nibble.

0:05:51 > 0:05:55Watch out, Ostrich. Hyena is going to nip you. Fly, Ostrich, fly!

0:05:55 > 0:05:59- Be careful, Ostrich. He's behind you.- Oh, no!

0:05:59 > 0:06:03- I don't think I can fly without my feathers.- Then, run!

0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Whoo!- Come here, Ostrich!

0:06:06 > 0:06:07Go, Os!

0:06:07 > 0:06:09- Yeah! Ha-ha-ha! - That's it - run!

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Now, what's this I hear about Ostrich?

0:07:01 > 0:07:04- Some beast has stolen her feathers. - Hyena?

0:07:04 > 0:07:07No, for once it wasn't Hyena.

0:07:07 > 0:07:12Well, we must find the feathers and the animal who stole them.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14Oh, yes. Yes, Your Majesty.

0:07:14 > 0:07:15Now, where is Ostrich?

0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Hmm-hmm.- Mm-mm.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Don't be silly, Monkey. That's a bush.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24Eh-eh. Uh, uh, uh!

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Oh. Ostrich is behind the bush?

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Hmm... Ostrich?

0:07:32 > 0:07:35ECHOING: Jambo, Your Majesty.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37Are you all right down there?

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Well, some beast stole my feathers.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47Yes, yes. I see. I see.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51- May I make a suggestion, Your Majesty?- Be my guest, Tortoise.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54We take one more of Ostrich's feathers... Elephant!

0:08:23 > 0:08:27..and we'll leave this feather right there.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29He-he-he-he!

0:09:58 > 0:10:02- Actually, Your Majesty, I don't want my feathers back.- Huh?

0:10:02 > 0:10:06I wasn't good at flying. I like running better.

0:10:08 > 0:10:09ALL AGREE

0:10:09 > 0:10:14Oh... This time, you two are very lucky.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34From that day on,

0:10:34 > 0:10:39- whenever Ostrich wanted to hide, she just turned into a bush.- He-he!

0:10:39 > 0:10:43And that's why Ostrich sticks her head in the ground!

0:10:43 > 0:10:45He-he! Has Hyena gone?

0:10:45 > 0:10:47- He'll never find you.- Ostrich?!

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Hello? Ostrich, where are you?
