Why Camel has a hump.

0:01:030:01:05

Phew! It's so hot!

0:01:050:01:08

You see, there was a time when Camel had no hump. Look.

0:01:100:01:14

HE GRUNTS

0:01:160:01:20

Ahhh.

0:01:200:01:21

HE SLURPS

0:01:210:01:23

He lived far, far away in the hot desert.

0:01:230:01:27

And no beast in Tinga Tinga had ever seen a camel before.

0:01:270:01:32

-CAMEL BURPS

-Eugh!

0:01:320:01:34

HE BURPS AND SLURPS

0:01:340:01:37

Camel loved the heat.

0:01:380:01:40

But one day, the desert got too hot, even for Camel.

0:01:400:01:45

Hot, hot, hot sand!

0:01:480:01:50

The rains have not come for a very long time, your majesty.

0:01:570:02:02

I know, Tortoise. It is a worry for us all.

0:02:020:02:06

The water hole is looking dangerously low.

0:02:060:02:09

-SLURPING

-Elephant!

0:02:100:02:13

Put that water back!

0:02:130:02:16

But the heat makes my skin all crinkley!

0:02:170:02:20

There's not a lot left, Elephant and we need it for drinking.

0:02:200:02:26

Permission to splash, your majesty, please? Pretty please?

0:02:260:02:31

Permission denied, Hippo.

0:02:310:02:33

Permission granted to lie very still in the water

0:02:330:02:37

-without making a single splosh.

-Easier said than done!

0:02:370:02:41

Ehhh. HE GRUNTS

0:02:490:02:53

Eh-heh...hmmm.

0:02:550:02:58

A-ha!

0:02:580:03:00

-I'm so thirsty!

-Me too.

-Me three!

-Me four.

0:03:040:03:08

-Elephant!

-But I'm so thirsty.

0:03:080:03:13

What if my trunk shrivels up?

0:03:130:03:15

Your brain will be the first thing to go.

0:03:150:03:18

It has! My brain's all shrivelled up.

0:03:180:03:21

It hasn't, Elephant! Your brain is still there.

0:03:210:03:25

Oh. HE CHUCKLES

0:03:250:03:27

Maybe we should all have an afternoon nap.

0:03:270:03:31

Ooh, excellent idea, your majesty.

0:03:310:03:33

Take our minds off how thirsty we are.

0:03:330:03:37

And when we wake up, the rains will be here, won't they?

0:03:370:03:41

I hope so, Monkey. Now, let's sleep.

0:03:410:03:46

Ahhh.

0:03:460:03:48

THEY SNORE

0:03:540:03:56

A-ha.

0:04:050:04:08

HE CHUCKLES

0:04:090:04:11

LION SNORES

0:04:160:04:18

CAMEL CHUCKLES

0:04:180:04:20

Elephant!

0:04:240:04:26

HIPPO SNORES

0:04:290:04:31

Oh. Oh!

0:04:340:04:36

HE BURPS

0:04:370:04:38

Hippo! Wake up!

0:04:380:04:40

-Huh? What?

-Shh!

0:04:400:04:43

Over there! What in Tinga Tinga is that?

0:04:430:04:46

Oh, I don't know!

0:04:460:04:49

Tortoise, wake up! There's a strange beast in the water hole.

0:04:510:04:56

What on earth is that?

0:04:560:05:00

Elephant? Elephant!

0:05:000:05:03

Elepha-a-a-nt!

0:05:030:05:06

ELEPHANT GRUNTS

0:05:060:05:08

Tell Lion there's a strange beast in the water hole!

0:05:080:05:12

OK, sawa.

0:05:120:05:14

What on earth is it?

0:05:140:05:17

CAMEL BURPS That's not very nice!

0:05:170:05:20

Looks like Giraffe, but burps like a buffalo.

0:05:200:05:24

CAMEL SNORTS

0:05:240:05:26

-MONKEYS GIGGLE

-How rude.

0:05:260:05:28

Tortoise, you are the oldest. Any idea who this beast is?

0:05:280:05:33

I'm usually good on animals.

0:05:330:05:36

I just can't put my finger on it at the moment.

0:05:360:05:40

But I'll get there.

0:05:400:05:42

No-one knows what it is.

0:05:420:05:44

THEY GROAN IN DISGUST

0:05:440:05:46

Eurgh. Yuck!

0:05:460:05:49

He obviously hasn't been around polite animals for some time.

0:05:490:05:54

-Wait!

-Shhh!

-I know what it is!

0:05:540:05:57

It's coming to me... Give me a moment. Yes!

0:05:570:06:00

Yes... No, it's gone.

0:06:000:06:03

THEY GROAN

0:06:030:06:04

We can't just stand here while Tortoise tries to figure it out.

0:06:040:06:09

Ahhh, water.

0:06:090:06:12

Greetings, stranger.

0:06:120:06:15

I am Lion, king of Tinga Tinga. Who are you?

0:06:150:06:18

CAMEL BURPS

0:06:180:06:21

No manners at all!

0:06:210:06:23

Maybe he doesn't understand us.

0:06:230:06:26

Me - Lion! Who are you?

0:06:260:06:30

I am Camel.

0:06:300:06:34

Camel! That's it, it's a camel!

0:06:340:06:37

Course it is! Now, some beast once told me something important

0:06:370:06:42

about Camel, what was it?

0:06:420:06:45

It was very important... Oh, that's it!

0:06:450:06:48

Be very careful near a camel, they come from places hot...

0:06:480:06:52

I can't remember the rest.

0:06:520:06:55

Camel, where do you come from? Where is your home?

0:06:550:07:00

My home is very far away.

0:07:000:07:03

My home is the desert.

0:07:030:07:06

That's it!

0:07:060:07:08

Be very careful near a camel, they come from places hot...

0:07:080:07:13

Oh, I can't remember the rest. What was it?

0:07:150:07:18

Why are you here, Camel?

0:07:180:07:21

I is very, very thirsty.

0:07:210:07:25

THEY GIGGLE

0:07:250:07:26

Do you think I might have a drink?

0:07:260:07:33

THEY GASP

0:07:330:07:35

Hang on, Camel, wait a moment.

0:07:350:07:38

-That's not fair!

-A drink?

0:07:380:07:41

Now, what was it? Be very careful near a camel,

0:07:410:07:44

-they come from places hot...

-CAMEL BURPS

0:07:440:07:47

That's it! They burp, they spit, they blow their nose,

0:07:470:07:51

and...and... Oh, I can't remember the rest.

0:07:510:07:55

-He can't have a drink.

-Well, how much can one camel drink?

0:07:550:07:59

-But...

-But...

-But...

0:07:590:08:01

No buts. We are kind animals here in Tinga Tinga.

0:08:010:08:06

We shall allow this camel one drink. One drink, that is all.

0:08:060:08:11

Come on, Tortoise!

0:08:110:08:13

Remember, remember! What was it?

0:08:130:08:16

-Camel!

-Eh?

-Since you are very thirsty,

0:08:160:08:19

you may have a drink - just one drink. Do you understand?

0:08:190:08:24

I do.

0:08:240:08:25

One drink, and one drink only.

0:08:250:08:31

Oh, I can't remember the rest...

0:08:400:08:43

But I know it was important!

0:08:430:08:45

Be very careful near a camel, they come from places hot.

0:08:450:08:50

They burp, they spit, they blow their nose...

0:08:500:08:53

Oh! It's coming back to me!

0:08:530:08:56

It was a long time ago.

0:08:560:08:58

And I was only a lickle, lickle tortoise.

0:08:580:09:02

But they said... They said...

0:09:020:09:04

Be very careful near a camel, they come from places hot.

0:09:040:09:08

They burp, they spit, they blow their nose,

0:09:080:09:12

and... Oh! Oh, my goodness! Stop! Stop the camel!

0:09:120:09:15

Some beast stop the camel!

0:09:150:09:18

And, oh, they drink a lot!

0:09:180:09:21

-Ahhh.

-HE BURPS

0:09:230:09:24

-Eh?

-Oh!

0:09:240:09:27

RUMBLING

0:09:290:09:31

-THEY GASP

-What is that?

0:09:340:09:36

It looks like a big bump.

0:09:360:09:38

It's a hump.

0:09:400:09:43

-A hump?

-Yes, a hump.

0:09:430:09:46

Well, whatever it is, it's full of our water!

0:09:460:09:50

Tortoise!

0:09:500:09:51

I was trying to tell you.

0:09:510:09:54

I will not be needing any more water.

0:09:540:09:58

Now that I have a 'ump, I will go back to the desert

0:09:580:10:02

and you will not see me again.

0:10:020:10:05

What did you call it again?

0:10:090:10:11

-A 'ump.

-Got you.

0:10:110:10:14

And that's why camel has a hump.

0:10:140:10:16

Um, I think you'll find it's a "ump", Monkey.

0:10:160:10:20

Not a hump. A "ump".

0:10:200:10:22

THEY GIGGLE

0:10:220:10:24

It's raining!

0:10:280:10:30

Oh, goody.

0:10:300:10:31

Permission to splish, your majesty?

0:10:310:10:35

Permission granted!

0:10:350:10:37

Woooo-hoo!

0:10:370:10:39

SPLASH!

0:10:390:10:41

-Permission to splosh?

-Permission granted!

0:10:410:10:45

Permission to burp like Camel?

0:10:450:10:48

Permission...not granted!

0:10:480:10:50

THEY CHUCKLE

0:10:500:10:52

Splosh!

0:10:520:10:54

And hippo's sploshing? Well, that's a whole other story!
