Look at all my friends!

0:00:530:00:55

I'll tell you why...

0:00:570:01:00

There was a time when Buffalo didn't have horns.

0:01:110:01:14

He just had very long, shaggy hair.

0:01:140:01:17

Jambo, Monkeys!

0:01:170:01:19

-ALL:

-Jambo, Buffalo!

0:01:190:01:20

Buffalo was at home eating reeds at the edge of the swamp.

0:01:200:01:25

Until one day...

0:01:250:01:27

-Huh?

-Woo!

-Did you see that?!

-The swamp moved!

0:01:270:01:32

-Huh?! What is going on?!

-The swamp is getting bigger!

-Move back, Buffalo!

0:01:330:01:39

Move back!

0:01:390:01:40

-We'll help you find somewhere else.

-But I live here.

-Try the plains!

0:01:400:01:47

-I will! Thank you, Monkeys!

-And Buffalo had to find a new home.

0:01:470:01:54

-Ooh!

-A new home. A new home. Jambo, everyone!

0:01:540:01:58

-ALL:

-Jambo, everyone! Jambo, everyone!

0:01:580:02:01

-Jambo, Buffalo.

-The swamp is getting bigger

0:02:010:02:04

and I'm looking for a new home.

0:02:040:02:06

-Would you mind if I stayed here on the plains?

-Of course, Buffalo.

0:02:060:02:10

You're welcome to stay here. Eat as much grass as you like.

0:02:100:02:16

Giraffe, but Buffalo doesn't have a horn. He's just...very hairy.

0:02:160:02:21

-ALL:

-Very hairy! Very hairy!

0:02:210:02:24

Only animals with horns live on the plains.

0:02:240:02:27

Charge!

0:02:270:02:29

Thing on the end of my nose! Charge!

0:02:290:02:33

What was that?!

0:02:330:02:35

The Rhino charging his own horn! Don't mind him!

0:02:350:02:39

Oh, dear - the swamp is getting close!

0:02:390:02:42

-Which means we'll have less grass.

-ALL:

-Less grass! Less grass!

0:02:440:02:49

Hmm, I think I'd better find a different home.

0:02:490:02:53

-Maybe the plains are not for me.

-Why not try the waterhole?

0:02:530:02:58

-Oh, yes, good idea! Asante, horned animals! Thank you!

-Oh, dear!

0:02:580:03:02

Every animal needs a home.

0:03:020:03:06

Aw!

0:03:060:03:07

-Must find nuts! There we are! Must gather nuts!

-Jambo, Squirrel!

0:03:070:03:12

-What are you doing?

-Jambo, Buffalo.

0:03:120:03:15

-I'm gathering nuts in case of trouble.

-Trouble?

0:03:150:03:19

Well, I'm worried about that swamp.

0:03:190:03:22

If that swamp keeps moving,

0:03:220:03:24

there won't be any food in Tinga Tinga, except for my nuts.

0:03:240:03:28

-Have one.

-Asante! Thank you! That is kind of you.

0:03:280:03:34

Can't have animals going hungry!

0:03:340:03:36

Very thoughtful of you, Squirrel. Now, good day to you.

0:03:360:03:41

And good day to you, Buffalo.

0:03:410:03:43

HIPPO AND ELEPHANT LAUGH

0:03:430:03:46

-Elephant, look!

-Oops! Sorry, Buffalo! I was trying to get Hippo!

0:03:460:03:52

That's OK, Elephant. I like water. Reminds me of the swamps.

0:03:520:03:56

What do you mean, reminds you of the swamps?

0:03:560:04:00

Well, Tortoise, the swamps are moving,

0:04:000:04:03

so I was wondering if I could make the waterhole my new home.

0:04:030:04:07

Karibu, Buffalo. You're welcome to stay here. We can trumpet together.

0:04:070:04:13

Toot, toot!

0:04:130:04:14

THEY LAUGH

0:04:140:04:16

-Come on in, the water's lovely!

-Asante, Elephant. Thank you.

0:04:160:04:21

Toot, toot, toot! Go on, Buffalo, you do a trumpet!

0:04:210:04:25

Wait, wait, wait a second. Prr, prr, prr, prr...

0:04:250:04:29

Yeah, try again, try again!

0:04:290:04:31

No, no, no. I can't trumpet like you, Elephant.

0:04:310:04:35

But does anyone have some food? I am quite hungry.

0:04:350:04:39

Try some pondweed! You'll love pondweed!

0:04:400:04:44

Oh, Hippo, thank you, asante.

0:04:440:04:46

Ooh, that really is very...pond-y and weedy and...yucky!

0:04:480:04:54

No, that's not for me at all.

0:04:540:04:58

-I think I'd better find another home.

-Oh!

-Poor Buffalo.

0:04:580:05:03

Maybe you should try Lion and the big cats.

0:05:030:05:07

Lion has a big head of hair like you.

0:05:070:05:09

You may feel more at home there.

0:05:090:05:13

Good idea, Tortoise. Asante.

0:05:130:05:15

-Oh, poor Buffalo. Every animal needs a home.

-Mmm.

0:05:170:05:21

THEY GIGGLE

0:05:230:05:27

-Jambo, Buffalo. How nice to see you.

-Jambo, Your Majesty.

0:05:270:05:32

The swamp is rising and I need a new home.

0:05:320:05:35

-Well, stay here with us, Buffalo. Karibu, you are welcome!

-Yes, yes!

0:05:350:05:40

-Stay, Buffalo!

-Welcome, Buffalo.

0:05:400:05:44

In fact, you've come just at the right moment. It's grooming time.

0:05:440:05:49

Perhaps you'd join us? You have a wonderful head of hair.

0:05:490:05:52

Asante! Thank you very much!

0:05:520:05:55

Buffalo, try purring!

0:05:550:05:58

THEY PURR

0:05:580:06:00

Ha ha! Try purring!

0:06:000:06:02

Pu, pu, pu...

0:06:020:06:03

Pu, pu, pu, pu...

0:06:050:06:06

THEY LAUGH

0:06:060:06:08

Oh, my! That's not right, is it? Maybe I was just meant to be alone.

0:06:080:06:13

Nonsense, Buffalo! Every animal belongs somewhere.

0:06:130:06:17

It is nature's way.

0:06:170:06:19

Your Majesty, Your Majesty!

0:06:190:06:21

What is it?

0:06:210:06:22

The swamp, it's moved so much that

0:06:220:06:26

the horned animals are trapped! Look!

0:06:260:06:29

-Mmm...

-Hello! Can you help us?! The swamp is rising and we're trapped!

0:06:290:06:36

Quickly, we must go!

0:06:370:06:39

-Any suggestions, Tortoise?

-That is a very big swamp, Your Majesty.

0:06:460:06:51

I'm afraid I don't know what to do!

0:06:510:06:54

-ALL:

-Help! Yes, please!

0:06:540:06:55

-We could do with a little help, please!

-Of course, we will!

0:06:550:06:59

-But how? What can we do?

-Push back the swamp.

0:06:590:07:06

-You can't be serious, Buffalo!

-I am! I can do it! I know I can!

0:07:060:07:11

-ALL:

-Huh?!

0:07:110:07:13

-But how on earth are you going to do it?!

-Like this.

0:07:130:07:19

Grr! Grr! Grr!

0:07:190:07:22

-Anything happen? ALL:

-No!

-Not yet.

0:07:220:07:26

-Keep going!

-Go on! You can do it, Buffalo!

0:07:260:07:29

-Hoo! ALL:

-Hoo!

0:07:290:07:30

0:07:340:07:36

-Ha! ALL:

-Ha!

0:07:360:07:37

Tortoise, look! Buffalo is pushing back the swamp!

0:07:370:07:41

It's amazing!

0:07:410:07:43

You can do it!

0:07:430:07:44

-Hoo! ALL:

-Hoo!

0:07:440:07:46

-Ha! ALL:

-Ha!

0:07:460:07:47

-Hoo! ALL:

-Hoo!

0:07:470:07:48

-Still going back!

-Yes, Buffalo! Come on, Buffalo!

0:07:480:07:52

-Yes, Buffalo!

0:07:520:07:57

ALL SHOUT ENCOURAGEMENT

0:08:000:08:02

CHEERING, ELEPHANT TRUMPETS

0:08:070:08:10

Well done, Buffalo! Well done!

0:08:110:08:15

You're a hero, Buffalo! A hero.

0:08:150:08:19

And you belong right here with us on the plains.

0:08:190:08:23

But I don't have any horns.

0:08:230:08:25

I know how to fix that, Buffalo!

0:08:250:08:28

-How?

-Something I used to be very good at. Just a minute now.

0:08:280:08:34

Over once and over twice.

0:08:340:08:36

-Why is Squirrel braiding Buffalo's hair?

-I don't know.

0:08:360:08:40

And over once and over twice, got to look nice.

0:08:400:08:43

-Why is she braiding?

-What's going on?

0:08:430:08:46

Got to look neat, got to look nice. Hand over once, hand over twice.

0:08:460:08:50

-Got to look neat, got to look nice!

-SQUIRREL CHUCKLES

0:08:500:08:53

Oh.... Oh-ho!

0:08:530:08:56

Wait and see, Elephant! Wait and see! Ha-ha!

0:08:560:09:00

Hand over once, hand over twice. Got to look neat, got to look nice.

0:09:000:09:04

He he!

0:09:040:09:06

Going up!

SQUIRREL PANTS

0:09:080:09:12

Ta-da!

0:09:120:09:13

ANIMALS MURMUR IN SURPRISE

0:09:130:09:16

Buffalo, they're probably the biggest horns I've ever seen!

0:09:160:09:20

-How do they look? ALL:

-Very fine! Very fine!

0:09:200:09:24

Asante, Squirrel. Thank you very much.

0:09:240:09:27

Now don't move. Let those beautiful new horns dry in the hot sun.

0:09:270:09:33

-Ah, looks good!

-What big horns!

0:09:340:09:37

Buffalo, listen! The horned animals are going to throw you a big party!

0:09:370:09:42

And you are going to look magnificent!

0:09:420:09:47

BOTH CHUCKLE

0:09:470:09:50

EXCITED CHATTERING

0:09:500:09:51

-THONK! THONK!

-Buffalo's horns are rock solid!

0:09:510:09:55

THONK! THONK!

0:09:550:09:58

They'll last for ever and ever.

0:09:580:10:01

Ahem!

0:10:010:10:03

It gives me great pleasure, Buffalo,

0:10:030:10:07

to welcome you to the horned animals.

0:10:070:10:11

-ALL:

-Welcome to the plains. Welcome to the plains.

0:10:110:10:14

Welcome to the plains!

0:10:140:10:16

My new home!

0:10:160:10:19

And as Buffalo is the strongest beast with the biggest horns,

0:10:190:10:23

he must lead the celebration.

0:10:230:10:26

Let's dance the dance of the horns.

0:10:260:10:30

# Left, right! Left, right!

0:10:300:10:32

# Left, right! Left, right!

# Shake your horns!

0:10:460:10:48

# Raise your head, shake your horns! #

0:10:480:10:52

And Squirrel, with her clever braiding,

0:10:520:10:54

well, that's a whole other story.
