0:00:13 > 0:00:15Tell me about it!
0:00:15 > 0:00:17# If you like to wonder why
0:00:17 > 0:00:20# Tinga Tinga is a land of whys
0:00:20 > 0:00:23# You won't believe your eyes
0:00:23 > 0:00:25# Why I swing from tree to tree

0:00:55 > 0:00:59- # Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh. # - I'll tell you why...
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Why ants work together.
0:01:07 > 0:01:12But there was a time when ants didn't work together.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16There were so many of them, and they were so tiny,
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- that it was a big problem. - What are they doing?
0:01:19 > 0:01:24- I don't know.- They're falling over and bumping into each other.
0:01:24 > 0:01:29- Look!- We are trying to build a home.- I think they're playing.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33We are not playing! We're building a home.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35- We can't hear you.- We are working!
0:01:35 > 0:01:38- What are they saying?- I don't know.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Permission to speak, chief?
0:01:40 > 0:01:41Yes, lieutenant?
0:01:41 > 0:01:45- I don't think the monkeys can hear you.- I got that. Thank you.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Maybe the other animals will know what they're doing.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51- Let's find out.- Unbelievable!
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Er, chief, while I've got you,
0:01:54 > 0:01:58all the ants are very tired and we don't seem to be getting...
0:01:58 > 0:02:01very far with the building.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05Do you think maybe we need some help?
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Hard work, that's all it takes, lieutenant. Hard work!
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- But chief...- Lieutenant. In this world,
0:02:11 > 0:02:14it is every ant for himself.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18- But chief...- Now, ants! Gather round.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20We have a home to build.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23- What do we have? - ALL: A home to build!
0:02:23 > 0:02:26- And what builds homes? - ALL: Hard work!
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Now, it's a tough world in Tinga Tinga.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33So it's every ant for himself!
0:02:33 > 0:02:35- To work!- ALL: To work!
0:02:36 > 0:02:39- Look, look.- Ooh!
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Ants. Look at that!
0:02:41 > 0:02:45- What are they doing?- They're trying to build a home, monkey.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48- Why?- Every beast needs a home. Birds have nests,
0:02:48 > 0:02:52- lions have caves, monkeys... - Have trees!
0:02:52 > 0:02:55- And Tortoise has a shell. - THEY CHUCKLE
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Quite so. But the poor little ants have nowhere to call their own.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Lion, can't we help the ants?
0:03:01 > 0:03:04No, leave them be, it's nature's way.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08But they're not even strong enough to lift up a leaf.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12It's making me tired just looking at them.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14I need to sit down.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16- No! No!- Run!
0:03:16 > 0:03:20- Oh, hippo, no! - The ants are running away!
0:03:20 > 0:03:21Can't we help them?
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Yes, can't we help?
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Oh...I think I'm going to sneeze.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29I think it's going to be a big one...
0:03:29 > 0:03:32- Ah...ah...- Run!- Ants, scatter!
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Quick, monkeys! Hold Elephant's trunk!
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Take your mind off it. Try and think of something.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Oh, yes, I've got it.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42ATCHOO-O-O-O-O!
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Don't worry, ants! Don't worry!
0:03:47 > 0:03:48Excuse me.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50What were you thinking about, Elephant?
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Sneezing.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56You were supposed to think about anything BUT sneezing!
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Sorry. Big head, see?
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Tiny brain!
0:04:05 > 0:04:09Right, right. Everyone here?
0:04:09 > 0:04:10- ALL: Yes.- Good. Good!
0:04:10 > 0:04:14This seems like the perfect place for our home.
0:04:14 > 0:04:19- Right here.- But, chief, I think we need help.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21No, no, no. No help!
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Ostrich! I'm going to get you!
0:04:23 > 0:04:25You'll never get me-e-e-e!
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Ants! Scatter!
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- Oh, yes, I will, Ostrich. - Ants! Scatter!
0:04:30 > 0:04:33- Scatter!- I'm going to lick you...
0:04:34 > 0:04:35You'll never get me.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Ha-ha-ha! Oh, yes, I will.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Chief, let's go underground, quickly.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Perfect! Underground, ants!
0:04:48 > 0:04:49Underground.
0:04:55 > 0:04:56- Oooh.- Hmm.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00Now, this is the perfect place for our home!
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Right here! Underground.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Jambo, ants!
0:05:07 > 0:05:09- Ahh!- Ah! Ostrich! Scatter!
0:05:09 > 0:05:10Hiding from Hyena.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14Ants? Ants? Anything I can do to help?
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Now, where did Ostrich go?
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Hmm. Ostrich? Ostrich!
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Ahh. Hee-hee.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32But, chief, don't you think that with a little help
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- we could build...- No, no, no! No help.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Oh, yes. There's a branch.
0:05:38 > 0:05:39Perfect.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44But, sir, maybe the animals could lend us a hand.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46No, no and no!
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Ahh!
0:05:47 > 0:05:49- Got it.- Ahhh!
0:05:49 > 0:05:51- Ahhh!- Don't worry, chief.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53I'm here.
0:05:53 > 0:05:54I've got you.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00- Wh-o-o-a-a-a!- Ah-h-h-h!
0:06:01 > 0:06:06- What is happening?- I think Eagle wants the twig for her nest.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07All the way up there?
0:06:07 > 0:06:09I'm afraid so, sir.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15There. Better get some more.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Hey! Hey, Eagle! Eagle!
0:06:17 > 0:06:19You can't leave us up here!
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Oh, what's the point?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23No beast can see us or hear us.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26All they do is squash us!
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Or leave us up in trees.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31HE SOBS
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Ants! Ants! Yoo-hoo!
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Up here! We're up here!
0:06:38 > 0:06:41Oh, leave it, lieutenant. We might as well give up.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Give up? No, no, no!
0:06:43 > 0:06:45We have to have hope.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Oh! Wait!
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Chief! Chief!
0:06:49 > 0:06:52I think I've found it - the perfect place for a home.
0:06:52 > 0:06:53Over there!
0:06:53 > 0:06:57Perfect place? Ha. There's no such thing.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59There is. Look!
0:06:59 > 0:07:02An island in the middle of the water hole!
0:07:02 > 0:07:07We'll be protected, and able to see all the animals for miles.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09But we're stuck up a very tall tree!
0:07:09 > 0:07:11It's hopeless.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15No, it's not. But we have to work pamoja.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- Hmm? Pamoja?- Yes, pamoja.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- Together.- I have heard enough.
0:07:20 > 0:07:25No! If we help each other, we can get down this tree.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27And if we can do that,
0:07:27 > 0:07:31then we can all build a home pamoja - together.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34And that's what we need to do.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Come on! I'll hold your arms and you climb down.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Then you hold my legs and I'll climb down.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44If we help each other, then we can make it -
0:07:44 > 0:07:46pamoja! Together.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49You are quite a remarkable ant.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51- Pamoja.- Together.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54# If we both work together
0:07:54 > 0:07:56# Together you will see
0:07:56 > 0:07:58# You and me, together
0:07:58 > 0:08:00# At the bottom of the tree
0:08:00 > 0:08:02# If we both work together
0:08:02 > 0:08:05# Together, me and you
0:08:05 > 0:08:07# Together is pamoja!
0:08:07 > 0:08:09# There's nothing we can't do! #
0:08:09 > 0:08:13CHEERING
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Ants! Ants! Quiet.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Meet lieutenant!
0:08:18 > 0:08:20A clever little ant.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23An ant who has shown me that together we can do anything!
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Together, we can lift a leaf!
0:08:26 > 0:08:29ALL: Together, we can lift a leaf!
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Together, we can drag a twig!
0:08:32 > 0:08:36ALL: Together, we can drag a twig!
0:08:36 > 0:08:39BOTH: Together, we can build a home.
0:08:39 > 0:08:45- Together!- Together!- Pamoja!- Pamoja! - Together!- Together!- Pamoja!- Pamoja!
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Together! Pamoja! Together!
0:08:47 > 0:08:50- Ready for work?- Yes, chief!
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Well done, lieutenant.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56# Together, you will see... #
0:08:58 > 0:09:00THE ANIMALS CHUCKLE
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Look, singing twigs!
0:09:02 > 0:09:05They are not singing twigs, Elephant.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07They are singing ants!
0:09:07 > 0:09:08- Wow.- Jambo, Elephant!
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Sorry about the sneeze.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13No worries, Elephant! No worries.
0:09:13 > 0:09:18Working together. Now, that's more like it!
0:09:18 > 0:09:20It is nature's way.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Come on, let's follow them.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26# ..All of us, together
0:09:30 > 0:09:32# One tree, one bridge... #
0:09:32 > 0:09:38Wow! Look at those ants!
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Remarkable.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43# If we all work together... #
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Let's go. Come on! That's it!
0:09:46 > 0:09:47# ..Together is pamoja
0:09:47 > 0:09:50# There's nothing can't be done... #
0:09:50 > 0:09:51This way, ants!
0:09:51 > 0:09:54# ..Together, we will see
0:09:54 > 0:09:57# All of us together
0:09:57 > 0:10:00# If we all work together
0:10:00 > 0:10:02# Never standing still
0:10:02 > 0:10:05# We'll have our home together
0:10:05 > 0:10:08# We'll have our home
0:10:08 > 0:10:13# Anthill, we'll have our own
0:10:13 > 0:10:17- # Anthill, we'll have our own... # - What is that?
0:10:17 > 0:10:19An anthill, monkeys.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22The ants have built their very own anthill.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Their very own home.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28Hey-hey! Our very own anthill!
0:10:28 > 0:10:31And we have the shade of our very own tree.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34ALL: Pamoja! Together!
0:10:34 > 0:10:37That is why ants work together!
0:10:37 > 0:10:39From that day on,
0:10:39 > 0:10:42they learnt that together they can do anything!
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Pamoja - together.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46ANTS: Pamoja - together!
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Funny looking tree, though.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51- Jambo, everyone.- Ostrich!- Ostrich!
0:10:51 > 0:10:55You haven't seen Hyena, have you?
0:10:55 > 0:11:00And Ostrich? Well, that's a whole other story.
