0:00:47 > 0:00:49GROANING
0:00:49 > 0:00:53What's that, Marvin? Oh, yes, I agree.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Hello, I'm Andy, and this is a baby meerkat.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Now, meerkats live in big family groups
0:01:00 > 0:01:03and they love talking to each other.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Shall I see if I can talk meerkat?
0:01:05 > 0:01:07HIGH-PITCHED GROAN
0:01:07 > 0:01:10I think Marvin here knows that I'm not a meerkat.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14Wouldn't it be great if we understood what animals were saying?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17First stop, Kenya in Africa.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18LION ROARS
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Whoa!
0:01:23 > 0:01:25How's that for a roar?
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Lions are the loudest cats in the world.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34GROANING Aw!
0:01:34 > 0:01:38Not quite as noisy when they're that little, though.
0:01:38 > 0:01:43These African lions live in a family called a pride.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45You can tell which one's Dad.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47He's got all that shaggy hair on his head.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49It's called a mane.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53He's also got a big mouth.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Perfect for a spot of roaring.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01They're not just making all that noise for fun, though.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04That's their way of saying to all the other lion families,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07"Hey, you lot, stay off our patch."
0:02:09 > 0:02:10Pity impressive, eh?
0:02:14 > 0:02:18That roar is almost as loud as the siren on a fire engine.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22Now Mum and her sisters are joining in too.
0:02:22 > 0:02:23Your turn.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Good try, little one.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Every lion needs to know how to roar.
0:02:32 > 0:02:33MUFFLED ROAR
0:02:34 > 0:02:37They learn by copying the grown-ups.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39It's a shouting school for lions.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46I think you need a bit more practice
0:02:46 > 0:02:49if you want to be as noisy as Mum and Dad, though.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04In Antarctica, there are some babies that have a loud voice
0:03:04 > 0:03:06when they're still little.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11This ball of fluff is a penguin.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14He lives in a big group called a colony.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17These guys are chinstrap penguins.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20They're called that because it looks like
0:03:20 > 0:03:24they've got a black helmet strapped to their head.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27I think Mum must be off getting breakfast.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Penguins like fish for breakfast...
0:03:30 > 0:03:31and lunch...
0:03:31 > 0:03:32and supper too.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45She's got to bring breakfast home to her chick.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47I hope she can find him again.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49There are so many penguins here.
0:03:51 > 0:03:55Luckily our chick has got a very noisy call,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58especially when he's got an empty tummy.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Here she comes.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Oh, just look at her go.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05PENGUINS CALL
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Right, just that big hill to climb.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Oh!
0:04:15 > 0:04:16Erm...
0:04:18 > 0:04:19Hmm...
0:04:21 > 0:04:25Maybe putting the colony at the top of a muddy, icy slope
0:04:25 > 0:04:28wasn't such a good idea after all.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Whoops.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Oh, dear.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Whoa, whoa, ooh.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39ANDY CHUCKLES
0:04:39 > 0:04:41It's a pity penguins can't fly.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Come on, Mum, get a grip.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Oh!
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Yes! She's made it.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Oh, well done, Mum.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Now all she and the other mums have to do
0:05:11 > 0:05:13is to find their families again.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15Shouldn't be too hard!
0:05:15 > 0:05:19I mean, there's only 150,000 birds here.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Erm...
0:05:21 > 0:05:22Er...
0:05:22 > 0:05:24Ah.
0:05:24 > 0:05:25Good idea, guys.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Use that loud voice of yours.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Over here, Mum!
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Everyone knows that mums have great hearing.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40PENGUIN CALLS
0:05:43 > 0:05:45A penguin's ears are so good,
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Mum can pick out her own chick's call,
0:05:48 > 0:05:51even though everyone else is shouting too.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59See? Clever Mum has found them.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01She came straight to his call.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10And now he can use that motor mouth for eating,
0:06:10 > 0:06:12rather than shouting.

0:06:22 > 0:06:28In Sri Lanka, some baby animals can talk without making a sound.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37This baby macaque is only ten weeks old.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43She lives in a big family too, called a troop.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51These monkeys like to chat,
0:06:51 > 0:06:56but they mainly communicate by pulling funny faces at each other.
0:06:56 > 0:06:57Genius.
0:07:01 > 0:07:07If you're raising your eyebrows, it means, "I'm a bit worried."
0:07:07 > 0:07:11And this crazy smile is actually their way of saying,
0:07:11 > 0:07:14"I don't want any trouble today, thanks."
0:07:14 > 0:07:17I know. Amazing, isn't it?!
0:07:17 > 0:07:20She's going to have to learn all these funny faces
0:07:20 > 0:07:24if she wants to talk to the other monkeys.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Right, where to start?
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Maybe try it out on her friends first.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38She's asking them if she can join in.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52Oh, dear. I don't think they want to play with her.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58Maybe the grown-ups will understand her.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04She needs to be careful to follow the rules, though.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06This is the boss.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08He's called the alpha male.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12He's a bit full of himself, thinks he's a king or something.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15When he looks you in the eye,
0:08:15 > 0:08:19you have to chatter your teeth together to show respect.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Weird, isn't it?
0:08:21 > 0:08:25I suppose it's the monkeys' way of doing a bow or a curtsy.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28Uh-oh.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32It looks like our little friend has caught his eye.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35If she doesn't chatter her teeth, she'll be in trouble.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43Come on.
0:08:49 > 0:08:50Come on, you can do it.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Aw, yes.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58She did it.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06With funny faces like that,
0:09:06 > 0:09:09she's going to fit right in around here.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Give her a big hug, Mum, to say well done.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Aw.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24For a lion cub, a penguin chick or a young macaque,
0:09:24 > 0:09:27it's really important to find your voice.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29It's all part of growing up.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Isn't that right, Marvin?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35He said yes. See you next time.
