WOMAN: Right now,
with lack of information,
3
00:00:08,051 --> 00:00:09,886
so I'm not telling him
to do anything, right?
4
00:00:09,969 --> 00:00:12,138
He's trying to figure
out how to get more treats.

00:00:12,221 --> 00:00:16,976
He's attacking
the cameraman's shoe.

It's working for him, right?
7
00:00:18,394 --> 00:00:19,604
I mean, he's doing a great job,
8
00:00:19,687 --> 00:00:21,981
and he's pretty cute
while he's doing it.
9

NARRATOR: At the
Harambe Wildlife Reserve,
18
00:00:57,141 --> 00:01:00,895
it's breakfast time
for the African elephants.
19
00:01:00,978 --> 00:01:02,688
ADRIANA: So, who
do we have coming up?
20
00:01:02,855 --> 00:01:04,524
This is Miss Nadirah right here.
21
00:01:04,690 --> 00:01:06,818
Nadirah's 16 years old.
22
00:01:06,901 --> 00:01:11,614
And after her, Luna.
They're sisters.
23
00:01:11,697 --> 00:01:14,951
Luna is very fast,
very high energy.
24
00:01:15,034 --> 00:01:18,287
She gets very excitable,
and she's very, very smart.
25
00:01:18,371 --> 00:01:20,790
Their mom is Donna,
and she's not out today.
26
00:01:21,332 --> 00:01:25,294
Coming up is Vasha and Kianga,
which are mother and daughter.
27
00:01:25,378 --> 00:01:27,630
Vasha is in her mid-to-late 30s,
28
00:01:27,713 --> 00:01:29,841
and Kianga is 17 years old.
29
00:01:29,924 --> 00:01:31,509
(grumbling)
30
00:01:31,592 --> 00:01:33,469
Elephants are
very social animals.
31
00:01:33,553 --> 00:01:36,639
They actually live
in matriarchal societies.
32
00:01:36,722 --> 00:01:40,518
When the females are born,
they stay with their moms
33
00:01:40,768 --> 00:01:44,897
and sisters and aunts
and grandmas forever.
34
00:01:44,981 --> 00:01:47,525
So, currently, we do
not have a matriarch.
35
00:01:47,733 --> 00:01:50,486
No one has taken
that role just yet.
36
00:01:50,570 --> 00:01:52,989
The two moms, Vasha and Donna,
37
00:01:53,072 --> 00:01:55,783
they just happen
to like their own space.
38
00:01:55,950 --> 00:02:00,329
However, Kianga, Nadirah,
and Luna, they get along great.
39
00:02:00,413 --> 00:02:02,999
They all formed
a very special bond.
40
00:02:03,082 --> 00:02:06,627
So, although they're not
all biologically sisters,
41
00:02:06,711 --> 00:02:10,840
they are soul sisters,
especially Kianga and Luna.
42
00:02:10,923 --> 00:02:15,386
They seem to have a very
interesting relationship.
43
00:02:15,469 --> 00:02:17,180
You see them together a lot,
44
00:02:17,263 --> 00:02:19,182
and sometimes
they're sharing food
45
00:02:19,265 --> 00:02:20,683
and they're playing together,
46
00:02:20,766 --> 00:02:24,854
and sometimes Luna,
being younger,
47
00:02:24,937 --> 00:02:27,356
will probably pester
Kianga a little too much.
48
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,192
(trumpets)
49
00:02:29,275 --> 00:02:30,401
They're like kids that weigh
50
00:02:30,484 --> 00:02:33,070
anywhere between
6,000 to 10,000 pounds,
51
00:02:33,154 --> 00:02:36,532
so there's gonna be
a little bit of drama
52
00:02:36,616 --> 00:02:40,161
between these girls
from time to time.
53
00:02:44,457 --> 00:02:46,709
(trumpets)
54
00:02:46,792 --> 00:02:51,005
Although Luna's very social,
she's also pretty independent.
55
00:02:51,088 --> 00:02:53,090
NARRATOR: As the
morning heats up,
56
00:02:53,174 --> 00:02:55,509
Luna wants some alone time.
57
00:02:55,593 --> 00:02:56,886
ADRIANA: Luna is by herself.
58
00:02:56,969 --> 00:03:00,932
She's got the right idea,
eating breakfast in the shade.
59
00:03:01,015 --> 00:03:04,560
NARRATOR: But
Kianga wants her BFF.
60
00:03:04,644 --> 00:03:07,230
ADRIANA: Kianga is like,
"Let me, let me go see
61
00:03:07,313 --> 00:03:08,773
what she's doing
and what she's eating.
62
00:03:08,856 --> 00:03:12,777
Maybe she's got something
that I haven't found yet."
63
00:03:12,944 --> 00:03:17,949
And Vasha is like, "Okay,
but I don't want to be alone.
64
00:03:18,032 --> 00:03:21,494
I'm gonna go come
follow you guys and hang out
65
00:03:21,577 --> 00:03:25,748
so we can all eat together."
66
00:03:25,831 --> 00:03:28,084
A little later today
when it starts to get hotter,
67
00:03:28,167 --> 00:03:29,961
you can pretty much guarantee
the ladies are gonna go
68
00:03:30,044 --> 00:03:31,963
straight to the pool,
and they're gonna have
69
00:03:32,046 --> 00:03:36,300
a nice little pool party,
and it's gonna be very relaxed.
70
00:03:42,974 --> 00:03:46,394
NARRATOR: But later on,
as the sun gets higher,
71
00:03:46,727 --> 00:03:49,522
Luna goes
backstage with her mom,
72
00:03:49,689 --> 00:03:52,858
leaving Kianga
without her best buddy.
73
00:03:55,194 --> 00:03:59,031
(trumpeting)
74
00:03:59,115 --> 00:04:01,200
ADRIANA: Kianga's
definitely a little worked up.
75
00:04:01,284 --> 00:04:03,703
(trumpeting)
76
00:04:12,044 --> 00:04:14,964
NARRATOR: Kianga's
pool party for one
77
00:04:15,381 --> 00:04:17,758
gets a lot of attention.
78
00:04:17,842 --> 00:04:19,552
(trumpets)
79
00:04:19,635 --> 00:04:20,636
MICHELLE: She's
acting like a teenager,
80
00:04:20,803 --> 00:04:25,057
throwing a little
bit of a hissy fit.
81
00:04:25,141 --> 00:04:26,058
KEEPER: It's a cute hissy fit.
82
00:04:26,142 --> 00:04:27,560
MICHELLE: Right?
83
00:04:31,230 --> 00:04:32,315
KEEPER: She's outta here.
84
00:04:32,398 --> 00:04:35,359
(trumpets)
85
00:04:35,443 --> 00:04:36,485
(whistles)
86
00:04:36,569 --> 00:04:37,820
(grunting)
87
00:04:37,903 --> 00:04:42,116
NARRATOR: At Disney's
Animal Kingdom Theme Park,
88
00:04:42,199 --> 00:04:44,827
romance is in the air
89
00:04:44,910 --> 00:04:49,832
and new life is
always on the way.
90
00:04:49,915 --> 00:04:52,710
Backstage at
the Avian Research Center,
91
00:04:52,793 --> 00:04:55,004
away from the
bustle of the park,
92
00:04:55,087 --> 00:05:00,176
crested couas, Amy and James,
are trying to start a family.
93
00:05:00,259 --> 00:05:04,847
MEGAN: I'm just placing
some bugs into the felt toy,
94
00:05:04,930 --> 00:05:07,808
and I'm gonna
get 'em all in here.
95
00:05:07,892 --> 00:05:12,146
And then we'll put
this one right over here.
96
00:05:12,271 --> 00:05:14,940
They are inseparable.
97
00:05:15,066 --> 00:05:16,650
They're very
sweet to each other,
98
00:05:16,776 --> 00:05:17,860
they feed each other,
99
00:05:17,985 --> 00:05:20,446
and they don't like
other birds sneaking in
100
00:05:20,529 --> 00:05:24,116
and trying to get
in their little love area.
101
00:05:25,910 --> 00:05:27,661
I want them to
come off of their nest
102
00:05:27,745 --> 00:05:29,663
because the behaviors
that I'm seeing indicate
103
00:05:29,955 --> 00:05:34,377
that there's an egg, so I
really want to check it out.
104
00:05:34,460 --> 00:05:36,212
NARRATOR: In their
native Madagascar,
105
00:05:36,295 --> 00:05:38,631
the coua's habitat
is threatened,
106
00:05:39,090 --> 00:05:42,885
so Amy and James are part
of a special breeding program
107
00:05:42,968 --> 00:05:46,847
that aims to keep a healthy
population in human care.
108
00:05:46,931 --> 00:05:49,225
MEGAN: They totally
look like bodybuilders,
109
00:05:49,308 --> 00:05:50,851
just pumping up,
110
00:05:50,935 --> 00:05:55,022
and they love
to sunbathe their backs.
111
00:05:57,942 --> 00:05:59,360
NARRATOR: They're
not showing off.
112
00:05:59,568 --> 00:06:01,862
These sun worshippers
use solar power
113
00:06:01,987 --> 00:06:05,366
to regulate
their body temperature.
114
00:06:05,699 --> 00:06:07,368
MEGAN: My favorite
thing about them is just
115
00:06:07,451 --> 00:06:09,578
the coloration of their eyes.
116
00:06:09,662 --> 00:06:12,289
That is actually their skin,
it's not their feathers,
117
00:06:12,373 --> 00:06:14,083
and it's just like
if you're going out
118
00:06:14,291 --> 00:06:17,545
for a night on the town
and you put on your eye shadow.
119
00:06:17,837 --> 00:06:20,047
It's just an adornment on them.
120
00:06:20,131 --> 00:06:21,715
(whistling)
121
00:06:24,885 --> 00:06:27,263
NARRATOR: Finally,
Megan gets a chance to see
122
00:06:27,346 --> 00:06:30,433
if the magic happened.
123
00:06:30,516 --> 00:06:32,268
MEGAN: It's
always that moment of
124
00:06:32,435 --> 00:06:36,689
"Is there something in there?"
125
00:06:36,772 --> 00:06:38,149
(whistles)
126
00:06:38,232 --> 00:06:40,985
Yay, there's an egg!
127
00:06:41,068 --> 00:06:43,529
They will break
under certain conditions,
128
00:06:43,612 --> 00:06:45,906
if they get tossed
around in the nest,
129
00:06:45,990 --> 00:06:49,118
the adults sit too hard
on them, they fall out.
130
00:06:49,201 --> 00:06:52,955
I'm going to remove the egg
from the nest for safekeeping
131
00:06:53,122 --> 00:06:55,040
in one of our incubators.
132
00:06:55,124 --> 00:06:56,667
NARRATOR: If all goes to plan,
133
00:06:56,750 --> 00:07:00,671
in 12 days, there will be
a new baby coua in the world.
134
00:07:01,088 --> 00:07:04,758
MEGAN: I'm really hoping we
can get some babies from them.
135
00:07:08,637 --> 00:07:10,764
NARRATOR: The
fragile crested coua egg
136
00:07:10,890 --> 00:07:12,975
is protected
by a special incubator,
137
00:07:13,058 --> 00:07:17,688
controlling the
temperature and humidity.
138
00:07:17,938 --> 00:07:22,985
GLORIELI: The first thing we're
going to do is take the weight.
139
00:07:23,068 --> 00:07:25,029
Five.
140
00:07:25,112 --> 00:07:27,072
9.85.
141
00:07:27,448 --> 00:07:28,866
NARRATOR:
Surrogate mom Glorieli
142
00:07:28,949 --> 00:07:32,286
keeps a close eye
on its development.
143
00:07:32,453 --> 00:07:35,873
This chick is
almost ready to hatch.
144
00:07:35,956 --> 00:07:38,334
GLORIELI: I'm going to turn
the lights off so we actually
145
00:07:38,417 --> 00:07:43,172
can get a visual
of the embryo in the egg.
146
00:07:43,255 --> 00:07:44,757
I'm so excited.
147
00:07:48,594 --> 00:07:50,930
They will actually
start pecking at the shell,
148
00:07:51,013 --> 00:07:52,556
very softly at first.
149
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,517
But they keep
pecking at the same area,
150
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,019
and then you will see the hole.
151
00:07:57,102 --> 00:08:02,650
And, surprise, there is
an internal pip right there.
152
00:08:02,733 --> 00:08:05,444
NARRATOR: This weakened area,
known as the pip, will be
153
00:08:05,528 --> 00:08:09,031
the first to crack
when the baby hatches.
154
00:08:09,114 --> 00:08:11,033
GLORIELI: Okay.
155
00:08:11,116 --> 00:08:12,910
So that's good news.
156
00:08:12,993 --> 00:08:16,080
We are getting
really close to hatch now.
157
00:08:16,163 --> 00:08:19,500
So, within the next 12 hours,
158
00:08:19,708 --> 00:08:21,377
it will probably
peck at the shell
159
00:08:21,460 --> 00:08:25,506
and start opening it
from the inside to come out.
160
00:08:27,758 --> 00:08:29,385
It's very exciting.
161
00:08:29,468 --> 00:08:30,928
(laughs)
162
00:08:35,641 --> 00:08:38,894
NARRATOR: At The Seas
with Nemo & Friends at Epcot
163
00:08:39,103 --> 00:08:44,483
live over 90 aquatic species,
including these gentle giants,
164
00:08:44,567 --> 00:08:49,154
West Indian manatees,
Lou and Lil Joe.
165
00:08:49,238 --> 00:08:50,864
DR. JEN: I love
manatees so much.
166
00:08:50,948 --> 00:08:54,034
I always would say that
if I could choose one species,
167
00:08:54,285 --> 00:08:56,328
I would totally be
a manatee veterinarian
168
00:08:56,412 --> 00:08:58,080
and just work on
manatees all day long.
169
00:08:58,163 --> 00:09:00,958
Their little faces,
you just want to squish them.
170
00:09:01,041 --> 00:09:03,335
Cute is just the best
word to describe a manatee.
171
00:09:07,715 --> 00:09:10,092
NARRATOR: While
Lou and Lil Joe cause a splash,
172
00:09:11,802 --> 00:09:12,761
backstage,
173
00:09:12,886 --> 00:09:16,807
Doctor Jen attends a
rescued wild manatee.
174
00:09:16,890 --> 00:09:18,851
DR. JEN: We have three
young females down here
175
00:09:18,934 --> 00:09:21,937
that are undergoing
rehab here at Disney.
176
00:09:22,021 --> 00:09:25,858
That feisty little lady
over there, her name is Jolo.
177
00:09:25,941 --> 00:09:27,443
Like Yolo but with a J.
178
00:09:27,526 --> 00:09:29,153
So, she's very spicy.
179
00:09:29,236 --> 00:09:31,614
We like her a lot.
180
00:09:31,697 --> 00:09:35,200
Jolo was rescued
near Titusville, Florida,
181
00:09:35,284 --> 00:09:37,036
by one of our
conservation partners.
182
00:09:37,119 --> 00:09:38,370
They transported
her here to Disney
183
00:09:38,454 --> 00:09:41,874
so that we could provide
her with more long-term care.
184
00:09:41,957 --> 00:09:44,627
She's really thin, and she
has these respiratory signs
185
00:09:44,710 --> 00:09:46,211
that are concerning me.
186
00:09:46,295 --> 00:09:48,881
What the trainers have
expressed is that occasionally
187
00:09:48,964 --> 00:09:50,549
they'll hear
kind of a little bit
188
00:09:50,633 --> 00:09:52,801
of a congested breathing pattern
189
00:09:52,885 --> 00:09:55,054
and they may see some
mucus on the water surface
190
00:09:55,137 --> 00:09:58,140
when they're watching her swim.
191
00:09:58,307 --> 00:10:01,226
NARRATOR: As an
air-breathing mammal,
192
00:10:01,310 --> 00:10:05,272
Jolo can be
examined out of water.
193
00:10:05,356 --> 00:10:08,108
DR. JEN: This area is really
great for rehab manatees.
194
00:10:08,442 --> 00:10:09,652
We can drain the
pool really quickly
195
00:10:09,735 --> 00:10:12,446
to access them
for their medical exams
196
00:10:12,529 --> 00:10:15,574
and keep a really close eye
on them when we feed them
197
00:10:15,658 --> 00:10:17,451
to make sure
they're eating well.
198
00:10:17,534 --> 00:10:19,953
Would you mind just
hosing her off a little bit,
199
00:10:20,037 --> 00:10:21,664
just around the face?
200
00:10:21,747 --> 00:10:23,082
NARRATOR: Like all manatees,
201
00:10:23,165 --> 00:10:25,751
Jolo only breathes
through her nose,
202
00:10:25,834 --> 00:10:28,921
so Doctor Jen
takes a close look.
203
00:10:29,004 --> 00:10:34,301
DR. JEN: Jolo,
your face, sweet girl.
204
00:10:34,385 --> 00:10:39,932
Just see some nasal discharge,
so we're gonna sample that.
205
00:10:40,015 --> 00:10:44,978
She has been
a little extra mucus-y.
206
00:10:45,062 --> 00:10:46,021
(loud breath)
207
00:10:46,105 --> 00:10:47,356
KEEPER: Do you hear that breath?
208
00:10:47,439 --> 00:10:51,360
DR. JEN: Yeah, it's
a little mucus-y, huh?
209
00:10:51,527 --> 00:10:54,363
Her breathing sounds
really congested.
210
00:10:54,446 --> 00:10:55,906
It's kind of
these exaggerated breaths.
211
00:10:56,198 --> 00:10:59,284
They sound kind of wet.
212
00:10:59,368 --> 00:11:00,369
(snorts)
213
00:11:00,452 --> 00:11:02,621
Oh, wow.
214
00:11:02,955 --> 00:11:06,250
Yeah, that's
definitely concerning.
215
00:11:06,333 --> 00:11:08,544
We need to figure
out what's going on.
216
00:11:10,754 --> 00:11:11,714
DR. JEN: That
come out of her nose?
217
00:11:11,797 --> 00:11:12,881
KEEPER: Yes.
218
00:11:12,965 --> 00:11:14,925
DR. JEN: She did sneeze on us.
219
00:11:15,008 --> 00:11:17,428
But thankfully that she did.
220
00:11:17,511 --> 00:11:21,473
We were able to
see some of the mucus
221
00:11:21,598 --> 00:11:23,142
from deeper in the
respiratory tract,
222
00:11:23,225 --> 00:11:24,184
the yellowish stuff,
223
00:11:24,268 --> 00:11:25,644
which could be a concern.
224
00:11:25,728 --> 00:11:26,770
Scoop it up there, Charlene.
225
00:11:26,854 --> 00:11:28,605
KEEPER: Are you
going for a second one?
226
00:11:28,814 --> 00:11:29,773
DR. JEN: We're just
gonna get this stuff
227
00:11:29,857 --> 00:11:32,609
that's on the surface.
228
00:11:32,693 --> 00:11:33,652
There we go.
229
00:11:33,736 --> 00:11:35,487
Did you get a
decent amount in there?
230
00:11:35,571 --> 00:11:36,780
KEEPER: We did.
231
00:11:41,410 --> 00:11:43,370
DR. JEN: My biggest
worry is a pneumonia.
232
00:11:43,454 --> 00:11:45,164
It makes it really
hard for them to breathe,
233
00:11:45,247 --> 00:11:47,499
which means they
can't get as much oxygen
234
00:11:47,583 --> 00:11:50,335
to the rest of their
body that they need.
235
00:11:50,419 --> 00:11:55,758
So, it's concerning
for her long term.
236
00:11:55,841 --> 00:12:00,012
NARRATOR: When rescued, Jolo
weighed less than 600 pounds,
237
00:12:00,095 --> 00:12:03,557
almost 300 pounds short
of her healthy weight.
238
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,852
DR. JEN: There is a major
crisis in the wild right now,
239
00:12:06,935 --> 00:12:09,396
and this is being
caused by runoff
240
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,734
from urban coastal development
killing off the sea grasses,
241
00:12:13,817 --> 00:12:14,985
which is a big
problem for manatees
242
00:12:15,068 --> 00:12:17,529
because they don't
have anything to eat.
243
00:12:17,613 --> 00:12:19,281
What's happening is we're seeing
244
00:12:19,364 --> 00:12:23,076
a lot of these young
animals essentially starving.
245
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,411
The ultimate goal is to get Jolo
246
00:12:24,495 --> 00:12:26,997
back out to the
wild where she belongs,
247
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,250
but first we need to get her
healthy and put weight on her.
248
00:12:30,334 --> 00:12:33,712
I'm a little
concerned about her.
249
00:12:39,301 --> 00:12:41,887
NARRATOR: Backstage,
late at night,
250
00:12:41,970 --> 00:12:45,307
while crews ready
the park for guests...
251
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,396
(cracking)
252
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,900
There's another important
opening taking place.
253
00:13:03,158 --> 00:13:04,493
GLORIELI: All right, let's see
254
00:13:04,576 --> 00:13:06,870
if my little coua hatched.
255
00:13:10,499 --> 00:13:11,917
(gasps)
256
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,796
Hey, there! Hi!
257
00:13:15,879 --> 00:13:19,591
Oh, we are so active!
258
00:13:21,510 --> 00:13:23,595
Oh, my goodness.
259
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,139
You're ready to eat, aren't ya?
260
00:13:26,223 --> 00:13:27,891
So hungry.
261
00:13:27,975 --> 00:13:31,228
You look so good.
262
00:13:31,311 --> 00:13:34,106
Most people would say, "That
thing is absolutely hideous."
263
00:13:34,189 --> 00:13:37,609
They have no feathers.
264
00:13:37,693 --> 00:13:40,612
Their skin is really wrinkly.
265
00:13:40,696 --> 00:13:42,114
But they're cute.
266
00:13:42,197 --> 00:13:46,285
NARRATOR: After all, every mom
thinks their baby is beautiful.
267
00:13:46,368 --> 00:13:47,953
GLORIELI: They have
a lot of personality.
268
00:13:48,036 --> 00:13:50,122
They don't open their eyes
right away but, you know,
269
00:13:50,205 --> 00:13:51,915
they move around quite a bit
270
00:13:51,999 --> 00:13:56,628
for such a bird that
naked and cannot see.
271
00:13:56,712 --> 00:13:58,088
Hey, Christine.
272
00:13:58,171 --> 00:14:01,508
I got the chick that
just hatch overnight.
273
00:14:01,592 --> 00:14:03,427
So, hatch weight is 8.52.
274
00:14:03,510 --> 00:14:04,428
CHRISTINE: Great.
275
00:14:04,511 --> 00:14:05,679
GLORIELI: And it's very hungry.
276
00:14:05,762 --> 00:14:08,307
CHRISTINE: Aw!
We'll get him fed.
277
00:14:08,390 --> 00:14:10,726
Oh, he's so cute.
278
00:14:10,809 --> 00:14:12,144
He looks really good.
279
00:14:12,227 --> 00:14:13,812
GLORIELI: Yeah, it does, yeah.
280
00:14:13,896 --> 00:14:15,272
Good weight.
281
00:14:17,566 --> 00:14:19,985
CHRISTINE: So, right now,
we're gonna put him down here,
282
00:14:20,068 --> 00:14:23,488
and we're gonna get
some food into him.
283
00:14:23,572 --> 00:14:27,117
He eats chopped up mice,
284
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,747
so we'll just tap his bill,
and if he wants his food,
285
00:14:31,830 --> 00:14:35,334
he'll open his mouth for us.
286
00:14:35,417 --> 00:14:38,629
He's got these
little dots in his mouth,
287
00:14:38,712 --> 00:14:44,384
and that's where his parents aim
to put that food right in there.
288
00:14:44,468 --> 00:14:47,304
NARRATOR: And they keep
Christine on target, too.
289
00:14:47,387 --> 00:14:50,057
Hand-feeding the chick
gives him the best chance
290
00:14:50,140 --> 00:14:53,644
of surviving his
perilous first two weeks.
291
00:14:53,727 --> 00:14:54,811
CHRISTINE: It's a lot of work.
292
00:14:54,895 --> 00:14:57,481
We start out feeding
them every two hours.
293
00:14:57,564 --> 00:15:03,070
We're basically
the mama bird all the time.
294
00:15:03,153 --> 00:15:05,197
NARRATOR: The little
bird needs one more thing
295
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,783
from his surrogate parents.
296
00:15:07,866 --> 00:15:09,618
CHRISTINE: So, I want
to name him after Kevin
297
00:15:09,701 --> 00:15:11,328
in the Disney movie Up.
298
00:15:11,411 --> 00:15:15,290
The crested coua
just reminds me of Kevin
299
00:15:15,374 --> 00:15:17,626
because of the
coloration of their feathers
300
00:15:17,709 --> 00:15:19,419
when they're adults.
301
00:15:19,503 --> 00:15:24,716
NARRATOR: For now,
little Kevin just wants a nap.
302
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:25,884
CHRISTINE: And let him rest
303
00:15:25,968 --> 00:15:28,887
until we feed him
again in about two hours.
304
00:15:30,430 --> 00:15:33,350

305

(trumpets)
307
00:15:45,237 --> 00:15:46,738
ERIN: Hi!
308
00:15:46,822 --> 00:15:48,490
All right.
309
00:15:48,573 --> 00:15:49,992
What happened outside?
310
00:15:50,075 --> 00:15:52,828
What got you
so riled up out there?
311
00:15:52,911 --> 00:15:55,247
NARRATOR: After
her tantrum outside,
312
00:15:55,330 --> 00:15:59,751
a calmer Kianga comes
inside for a little pampering.
313
00:15:59,835 --> 00:16:02,546
DANNY: Hello, you.
Are you ready?
314
00:16:02,629 --> 00:16:03,588
ERIN: Good for a hose?
315
00:16:03,672 --> 00:16:05,507
DANNY: You're good.
316
00:16:05,590 --> 00:16:07,175
Good girl.
317
00:16:07,259 --> 00:16:09,261
ERIN: We are gonna hose her off,
318
00:16:09,344 --> 00:16:12,514
get all the dirt off,
and take a look at her.
319
00:16:12,597 --> 00:16:16,476
DANNY: Kianga, stretch.
320
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:17,936
Good girl.
321
00:16:18,020 --> 00:16:19,938
ERIN: She's gonna
get a scrub bath today,
322
00:16:20,022 --> 00:16:26,111
so she's gonna have
a little Kianga spa treatment.
323
00:16:26,194 --> 00:16:28,280
DANNY: Kianga, you're,
oh, good girl.
324
00:16:28,363 --> 00:16:29,448
(trumpets)
325
00:16:29,531 --> 00:16:31,908
Very nice.
326
00:16:31,992 --> 00:16:33,035
So, Erin, I hear
something happened
327
00:16:33,118 --> 00:16:34,494
out in the yard
with Kianga today.
328
00:16:34,578 --> 00:16:36,038
ERIN: It did.
329
00:16:36,121 --> 00:16:38,290
Kianga appeared
to be very upset.
330
00:16:38,373 --> 00:16:40,917
There was a lot of
running around, trumpeting,
331
00:16:41,001 --> 00:16:43,879
throwing herself in the pool.
332
00:16:43,962 --> 00:16:45,505
DANNY: Really?
333
00:16:45,589 --> 00:16:48,258
ERIN: I think we have
a good idea what was going on.
334
00:16:48,341 --> 00:16:51,636
Kianga has been spending
a lot of time with Luna
335
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:52,929
over the past couple years,
336
00:16:53,013 --> 00:16:56,224
and they seem to have
developed a close relationship.
337
00:16:56,308 --> 00:17:00,896
So, earlier today, it was Luna's
turn to come off the yard first,
338
00:17:00,979 --> 00:17:04,733
and Kianga seemed to not
be on board with that idea.
339
00:17:04,816 --> 00:17:07,360
(bellows)
340
00:17:07,444 --> 00:17:10,322
DANNY: All right, other side.
341
00:17:10,405 --> 00:17:13,492
ERIN: It was really nothing
that we were concerned about.
342
00:17:13,575 --> 00:17:17,329
We just watched her,
made sure she calmed down.
343
00:17:17,412 --> 00:17:20,373
Elephants, I feel,
are just drama in general,
344
00:17:20,457 --> 00:17:21,416
one way or another.
345
00:17:21,500 --> 00:17:25,128
They're so smart.
They have a lot of emotions.
346
00:17:25,212 --> 00:17:27,297
DANNY: Not you. You
don't have any, do you? No.
347
00:17:27,380 --> 00:17:30,008
ERIN: She has lots of emotions.
348
00:17:30,675 --> 00:17:32,844
NARRATOR: And,
right now, the emotion
349
00:17:32,969 --> 00:17:36,014
Kianga shows is, "Hmmm."
350
00:17:36,389 --> 00:17:38,683
DANNY: Oh, good girl.
351
00:17:38,767 --> 00:17:40,477
We are loving this, yeah.
352
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:41,645
(gurgles)
353
00:17:41,728 --> 00:17:43,188
It's a gurgle.
354
00:17:43,271 --> 00:17:45,398
It's when you're really happy,
you're having a great time.
355
00:17:45,482 --> 00:17:47,025
ERIN: She also does
it when she's begging
356
00:17:47,109 --> 00:17:48,902
because she knows
everybody thinks it cute.
357
00:17:48,985 --> 00:17:53,240
DANNY: Yeah. 'Cause it is cute.
358
00:17:53,323 --> 00:17:55,242
Kianga, foot.
359
00:17:55,325 --> 00:17:56,243
Good girl.
360
00:17:56,326 --> 00:17:57,536
ERIN: Are you
all calmed down now?
361
00:17:57,619 --> 00:18:00,330
Nice and cool?
362
00:18:00,413 --> 00:18:02,624
DANNY: Ready to go out
and have a magical day.
363
00:18:02,707 --> 00:18:05,085
ERIN: Yeah, she's ready.
Good girl.
364
00:18:21,643 --> 00:18:25,730
NARRATOR: Back at The Seas,
Jolo, the rescued manatee,
365
00:18:25,814 --> 00:18:30,193
shows signs of a
dangerous infection.
366
00:18:30,277 --> 00:18:32,904
DR. JEN: On her exam last week,
you probably remember hearing
367
00:18:32,988 --> 00:18:35,198
her kind of doing this
really congested breathing.
368
00:18:35,282 --> 00:18:37,033
We could hear it
almost from a distance.
369
00:18:37,117 --> 00:18:39,578
And we saw a lot of
mucus coming out of her nose.
370
00:18:39,661 --> 00:18:41,913
So I'm gonna be doing
an ultrasound of her lungs
371
00:18:41,997 --> 00:18:45,125
to make sure there's no fluid
in there or anything abnormal.
372
00:18:45,208 --> 00:18:49,754
And then we're going to be
taking a look into her nose
373
00:18:49,838 --> 00:18:53,508
and her upper airway
with our endoscope.
374
00:18:53,592 --> 00:18:56,261
NARRATOR: Doctor Jen wants
to check for pneumonia,
375
00:18:56,344 --> 00:18:58,430
a potentially fatal condition.
376
00:18:58,513 --> 00:18:59,681
DR. JEN: All right, let's go.
377
00:18:59,764 --> 00:19:03,310
NARRATOR: But scanning
a manatee isn't simple.
378
00:19:03,393 --> 00:19:05,979
DR. JEN: So, we need a lot of
people to restrain this manatee.
379
00:19:06,062 --> 00:19:07,147
She is strong.
380
00:19:07,230 --> 00:19:09,399
And, also, since we're gonna
be putting her in a stretcher
381
00:19:09,482 --> 00:19:11,526
and lifting her
out onto our deck,
382
00:19:11,610 --> 00:19:13,820
we need a few extra
set of hands for that.
383
00:19:13,904 --> 00:19:16,573
NARRATOR: With the help
of a sling and a forklift...
384
00:19:16,656 --> 00:19:17,782
KEEPER: Are you ready to go up?
385
00:19:17,866 --> 00:19:19,784
DR. JEN: And this is
why we need so many people.
386
00:19:19,868 --> 00:19:23,246
NARRATOR: Jolo
takes to the air.
387
00:19:23,330 --> 00:19:25,790
DR. JEN: Just more
like centered on the foam.
388
00:19:25,874 --> 00:19:30,295
KEEPER: A regular bag for,
like, this kind of stuff.
389
00:19:30,378 --> 00:19:34,132
NARRATOR: And after
a little sedation...
390
00:19:34,216 --> 00:19:35,383
DR. JEN: Good job, Jolo.
391
00:19:35,467 --> 00:19:38,803
NARRATOR: Jolo is
ready for her close-up.
392
00:19:38,887 --> 00:19:42,974
DR. JEN: Ultrasound's
a really great imaging modality
393
00:19:43,058 --> 00:19:44,184
for the respiratory tract,
394
00:19:44,267 --> 00:19:48,897
so we can look at Jolo's lungs,
395
00:19:48,980 --> 00:19:52,525
and we can see
if she has fluid in there,
396
00:19:52,609 --> 00:19:54,778
if she has any significant signs
397
00:19:54,861 --> 00:19:56,863
of an infection,
like an abscess.
398
00:19:56,947 --> 00:19:58,448
(loud breath)
399
00:19:58,531 --> 00:20:01,117
Oh, nice big breath, Jolo.
400
00:20:01,201 --> 00:20:04,537
Good job.
401
00:20:04,621 --> 00:20:06,706
I'm a little perplexed
I don't see signs of pneumonia,
402
00:20:06,790 --> 00:20:08,667
so the next thing I'm gonna do
403
00:20:08,750 --> 00:20:11,753
is pass an endoscope
into her nostrils
404
00:20:11,836 --> 00:20:17,425
and see if I can figure out why
she's having trouble breathing.
405
00:20:17,509 --> 00:20:18,885
There's a breath.
406
00:20:18,969 --> 00:20:20,095
All right, I'm
gonna go in with this,
407
00:20:20,178 --> 00:20:22,138
and then we'll try to
get visualization here.
408
00:20:22,222 --> 00:20:23,556
Nice breath.
409
00:20:28,228 --> 00:20:30,021
Oh, it's so gross in there.
410
00:20:30,105 --> 00:20:33,191
Oh, my goodness.
411
00:20:33,275 --> 00:20:34,484
KEEPER: It's moving.
412
00:20:37,612 --> 00:20:38,822
DR. JEN: Oh, my gosh.
413
00:20:38,905 --> 00:20:39,864
KEEPER: Oh!
414
00:20:39,948 --> 00:20:41,574
DR. JEN: That's not
something you see every day.
415
00:20:41,825 --> 00:20:43,535
Wow.
416
00:20:45,161 --> 00:20:48,164
What we're seeing is a ton
of parasites everywhere.
417
00:20:48,248 --> 00:20:51,584
They are crawling up and
down her nasal passages.
418
00:20:51,668 --> 00:20:54,296
We're also seeing
a lot of parasites
419
00:20:54,379 --> 00:20:56,589
inside a bunch of abscesses
420
00:20:56,673 --> 00:21:00,260
all up and down
the mucosa of her nostril.
421
00:21:00,343 --> 00:21:02,012
It's pretty crazy.
422
00:21:04,889 --> 00:21:05,807
(snorts)
423
00:21:05,890 --> 00:21:09,936
Oh, wow, more
parasites coming out.
424
00:21:10,020 --> 00:21:12,063
All right.
425
00:21:12,147 --> 00:21:13,690
This type of parasite infection
426
00:21:13,773 --> 00:21:16,067
is pretty common
in wild manatees.
427
00:21:16,151 --> 00:21:19,612
The parasites live in snails
as an intermediate host,
428
00:21:19,904 --> 00:21:21,781
and the snails
live on the sea grass.
429
00:21:21,865 --> 00:21:23,908
And as wild
manatees are foraging,
430
00:21:24,075 --> 00:21:26,077
they ingest the snail.
431
00:21:26,161 --> 00:21:27,454
(snorts)
432
00:21:27,537 --> 00:21:28,997
Almost done, Jolo.
433
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:33,501
When manatees are really thin
like Jolo was when she stranded,
434
00:21:33,585 --> 00:21:34,878
these parasites take over,
435
00:21:34,961 --> 00:21:36,963
and they can cause
pretty severe infections.
436
00:21:37,047 --> 00:21:40,717
Had we not rescued Jolo,
it's highly likely
437
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,136
that this infection just
would have gotten worse.
438
00:21:43,219 --> 00:21:44,387
She would have
developed pneumonia
439
00:21:44,471 --> 00:21:46,973
and probably could
have died from it.
440
00:21:47,057 --> 00:21:48,808
We're gonna give her
an antibiotic injection,
441
00:21:48,892 --> 00:21:54,147
so she may give you
a little, you know, little,
442
00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:55,815
little activity.
443
00:21:55,899 --> 00:21:59,235
Today, we are administering
a parasite medicine to Jolo.
444
00:21:59,319 --> 00:22:01,112
We're also giving
her an antibiotic,
445
00:22:01,196 --> 00:22:04,074
and that's gonna help to
reduce the bacterial infection
446
00:22:04,157 --> 00:22:07,494
that's in her nostrils.
447
00:22:07,577 --> 00:22:09,329
Oh, this parasite's
still on my leg.
448
00:22:09,412 --> 00:22:11,039
KEEPER: Well, you can have it.
449
00:22:11,122 --> 00:22:13,750
DR. JEN: Uh...
450
00:22:13,833 --> 00:22:17,504
This is probably in my top
five or ten of grossest things
451
00:22:17,587 --> 00:22:20,173
I've seen in my career, yeah.
452
00:22:20,256 --> 00:22:22,133
We have parasites on the floor.
453
00:22:22,217 --> 00:22:23,343
We have parasites
on Jolo's face.
454
00:22:23,426 --> 00:22:25,095
We have parasites on my pants.
455
00:22:25,178 --> 00:22:27,138
I got parasites on my scrub top.
456
00:22:27,222 --> 00:22:29,015
Parasites everywhere.
457
00:22:29,099 --> 00:22:30,892
(snorts)
458
00:22:34,979 --> 00:22:39,025
DOMINIQUE: I don't go
to the gym very often.
459
00:22:39,109 --> 00:22:40,777
It's a real workout.
460
00:22:40,860 --> 00:22:42,695
Gotta come and
shift the girls in,
461
00:22:42,779 --> 00:22:47,367
so every single day,
we're doing this trek.
462
00:22:47,450 --> 00:22:49,661
NARRATOR: In
the Land of Africa,
463
00:22:49,744 --> 00:22:54,541
five-year-old cheetah triplets
Maathai, Murie, and Fossey
464
00:22:54,624 --> 00:22:58,211
wait for keeper Dominique
to serve breakfast.
465
00:22:58,294 --> 00:23:00,255
DOMINIQUE: Okay,
I see some kitties.
466
00:23:04,968 --> 00:23:09,889
(shaking noisemaker)
467
00:23:09,973 --> 00:23:13,893
This is their
auditory cue response,
468
00:23:13,977 --> 00:23:17,689
pretty much like
their breakfast bell.
469
00:23:17,772 --> 00:23:21,693
Maathai. Hi, baby.
You're my girl.
470
00:23:21,776 --> 00:23:25,530
Maathai, in my opinion, is
definitely our funniest cat.
471
00:23:25,613 --> 00:23:26,990
She's kind of a sweetheart.
472
00:23:27,073 --> 00:23:29,701
She does this thing where
she'll hiss and spit at you
473
00:23:29,784 --> 00:23:31,703
and then you feed her,
and she's like,
474
00:23:31,786 --> 00:23:35,165
"Oh, I never did that,
that wasn't me, I'm very nice."
475
00:23:35,248 --> 00:23:36,541
We don't play favorites,
476
00:23:36,624 --> 00:23:40,003
but she's definitely got
a special place in my heart.
477
00:23:40,086 --> 00:23:42,130
Ready?
478
00:23:42,213 --> 00:23:44,215
You got your training?
479
00:23:44,299 --> 00:23:46,426
Yeah.
480
00:23:46,509 --> 00:23:48,511
You the best girl.
481
00:23:48,595 --> 00:23:49,637
Down.
482
00:23:49,721 --> 00:23:50,638
(snarls)
483
00:23:50,722 --> 00:23:52,265
(clicks)
484
00:23:52,348 --> 00:23:53,933
I talk to the cats a lot.
485
00:23:54,017 --> 00:23:56,186
It does help them
to get used to you.
486
00:23:56,269 --> 00:23:57,437
I wish they could talk back.
487
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,148
It would make our
job so much easier.
488
00:24:00,231 --> 00:24:02,233
If there was something
going on and they were like,
489
00:24:02,317 --> 00:24:04,611
"My stomach's not
feeling well today."
490
00:24:04,694 --> 00:24:08,114
All done. You're finished.
491
00:24:08,198 --> 00:24:09,574
Nice job, babe.
492
00:24:09,657 --> 00:24:12,285
Now, we will see the
status of the other two.
493
00:24:12,368 --> 00:24:14,621
(growls)
494
00:24:14,704 --> 00:24:16,956
Nice job, Murie.
Come on, Foss!
495
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,959
NARRATOR: Murie and Fossey
come in for their eats.
496
00:24:20,043 --> 00:24:22,462
DOMINIQUE: Okay, you have
a lot here that you dropped,
497
00:24:22,545 --> 00:24:24,297
so are you gonna eat it?
498
00:24:24,380 --> 00:24:25,798
No?
499
00:24:25,882 --> 00:24:31,054
NARRATOR: With full bellies,
it's time to start the day.
500
00:24:31,137 --> 00:24:33,264
DOMINIQUE: Hi.
501
00:24:33,348 --> 00:24:34,682
Good morning.
502
00:24:34,766 --> 00:24:38,144
These are my girls.
I love them so much.
503
00:24:38,228 --> 00:24:40,939
They're so cute.
Look at them.
504
00:24:41,022 --> 00:24:45,068
We got Maathai right here,
taking a nice break.
505
00:24:45,151 --> 00:24:48,363
I'm trying to learn their
behaviors so that sometimes,
506
00:24:48,446 --> 00:24:50,657
if they're having
an off day or an off week,
507
00:24:50,740 --> 00:24:52,951
we're able to tell those things.
508
00:24:53,034 --> 00:24:56,955
NARRATOR: Recently Maathai has
shown some worrying behavior.
509
00:24:57,038 --> 00:24:58,998
DOMINIQUE: So, she's had
this gastritis for a while,
510
00:24:59,082 --> 00:25:01,793
and sometimes she
does have some flare-ups.
511
00:25:01,876 --> 00:25:03,753
She has been
doing a lot of regurg.
512
00:25:03,836 --> 00:25:04,879
Sometimes it's
like a small amount,
513
00:25:04,963 --> 00:25:06,422
and sometimes it's a big amount.
514
00:25:06,506 --> 00:25:10,468
Lately, she's regurged pretty
much her whole meal, plus some,
515
00:25:10,552 --> 00:25:15,098
for like a couple days in a row,
so that was pretty concerning.
516
00:25:15,181 --> 00:25:16,849
One of those things
that we are trying to do
517
00:25:16,933 --> 00:25:20,937
with Maathai and her stomach
is give her some antacids.
518
00:25:21,020 --> 00:25:22,522
My fingers are always crossed,
519
00:25:22,605 --> 00:25:23,565
and I'm always
hoping for the best
520
00:25:23,648 --> 00:25:26,818
that she will be
a little bit better.
521
00:25:36,661 --> 00:25:39,497
KEEPER: Almost lost it, yeah.
522
00:25:39,581 --> 00:25:41,416
Legs are locked.
523
00:25:41,499 --> 00:25:43,251
Got a little bump here.
524
00:25:43,334 --> 00:25:45,461
NARRATOR: At the
veterinary treatment room,
525
00:25:45,545 --> 00:25:48,631
Maathai arrives for a
check of her stomach.
526
00:25:48,715 --> 00:25:49,799
RAIN: If you want
to go on the back side
527
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:51,676
of the table there, Dominique.
528
00:25:51,759 --> 00:25:52,844
DR. BETSY: And on Rain's count.
529
00:25:52,927 --> 00:25:57,932
RAIN: All right, you ready?
One, two, three.
530
00:25:58,016 --> 00:25:59,934
All right, I'm
gonna trade places.
531
00:26:00,018 --> 00:26:01,561
DR. BETSY: This is
a wellness check for her,
532
00:26:01,644 --> 00:26:04,522
but also a
recheck of her stomach.
533
00:26:04,606 --> 00:26:08,151
RAIN: We have seen intermittent
regurgitation episodes.
534
00:26:08,234 --> 00:26:09,444
DR. BETSY: How
often do you see that?
535
00:26:09,527 --> 00:26:11,696
RAIN: She actually had
an episode about a week ago
536
00:26:11,779 --> 00:26:16,618
where she did that and expelled
her breakfast quite forcefully.
537
00:26:16,701 --> 00:26:19,412
DR. BETSY: All right,
let's scope her.
538
00:26:19,495 --> 00:26:22,373
NARRATOR: An endoscope
down Maathai's GI tract
539
00:26:22,457 --> 00:26:26,127
will tell the team
if the antacid is helping.
540
00:26:26,210 --> 00:26:27,670
DOMINIQUE: I'm
feeling a little anxious.
541
00:26:27,754 --> 00:26:29,589
I want everything
to go smoothly.
542
00:26:29,672 --> 00:26:31,591
I'm just really
hoping that her stomach
543
00:26:31,674 --> 00:26:34,052
and her gastritis
is doing better.
544
00:26:34,135 --> 00:26:35,678
DR. BETSY: So, I'm not
getting a good visualization
545
00:26:35,762 --> 00:26:36,888
of the stomach.
546
00:26:36,971 --> 00:26:38,681
We're in a lot of fluid.
547
00:26:38,765 --> 00:26:40,475
We need to get suction.
548
00:26:40,558 --> 00:26:41,726
(suction begins)
549
00:26:41,809 --> 00:26:43,936
Thank you. Got it.
550
00:26:46,439 --> 00:26:51,361
I'm not liking this area on
the stomach wall right there.
551
00:26:51,444 --> 00:26:53,988
Well, this is not what I
wanted to see today at all.
552
00:26:56,949 --> 00:26:59,702
DR. BETSY: This is
a serious medical issue.
553
00:26:59,786 --> 00:27:02,080
There's like islands
of normal tissue here,
554
00:27:02,163 --> 00:27:04,874
but then, you know,
all of these little indents
555
00:27:04,957 --> 00:27:07,251
are all abnormal.
556
00:27:07,335 --> 00:27:11,214
And so she has
really severe disease.
557
00:27:11,297 --> 00:27:14,008
Oftentimes, this is
caused by helicobacter,
558
00:27:14,092 --> 00:27:17,553
which is a type of bacteria
that lives in the stomach.
559
00:27:17,637 --> 00:27:21,015
NARRATOR: The bacteria irritate
Maathai's stomach lining,
560
00:27:21,099 --> 00:27:25,353
causing inflammation,
bleeding, and even ulcers.
561
00:27:25,436 --> 00:27:28,564
DR. BETSY: Her gastritis
seems to be much worse
562
00:27:28,648 --> 00:27:31,359
than it was at her last check.
563
00:27:31,442 --> 00:27:36,280
Unfortunately, her stomach is
quite ulcerated in many areas.
564
00:27:36,364 --> 00:27:39,992
RAIN: As a keeper, we
work really hard to make sure
565
00:27:40,076 --> 00:27:43,663
that our animals have
the best days that they can.
566
00:27:43,746 --> 00:27:44,914
And when you see
something like that,
567
00:27:44,997 --> 00:27:47,500
it kind of
deflates you a little bit.
568
00:27:47,583 --> 00:27:48,710
DOMINIQUE: I love her so much
569
00:27:48,793 --> 00:27:51,879
that taking all of the emotion
out of it is kind of impossible.
570
00:27:51,963 --> 00:27:54,924
These are, you know, my babies.
571
00:27:55,007 --> 00:27:57,051
DR. BETSY: Okay,
we're done with the scope.
572
00:27:57,135 --> 00:27:58,052
Thank you, Jen.
573
00:27:58,136 --> 00:27:59,303
KEEPER: She's so pretty.
574
00:27:59,387 --> 00:28:01,556
DR. BETSY: This is unfortunately
a really classic thing
575
00:28:01,639 --> 00:28:05,309
that we see in cheetah.
576
00:28:05,393 --> 00:28:06,811
So, it'll be, you know,
577
00:28:06,894 --> 00:28:09,856
an antacid,
anti-inflammatory, antibiotic
578
00:28:09,939 --> 00:28:13,359
combination that will help
decrease all this inflammation.
579
00:28:13,443 --> 00:28:16,404
It is a really difficult
condition to cure it completely,
580
00:28:16,487 --> 00:28:19,907
so we manage it with the
treatments and medications,
581
00:28:19,991 --> 00:28:21,492
and then we
monitor it periodically.
582
00:28:21,576 --> 00:28:26,122
So, she'll have another
wellness exam in about a year.
583
00:28:26,205 --> 00:28:27,623
Are you ready to take her home?
584
00:28:27,707 --> 00:28:28,666
RAIN: Yep.
585
00:28:28,750 --> 00:28:31,127
All right, stable
for transport? All right.
586
00:28:31,210 --> 00:28:34,964
Girl, grip those
long cheetah legs.
587
00:28:37,091 --> 00:28:38,801
NARRATOR: Maathai returns home
588
00:28:38,885 --> 00:28:42,054
to wake up
in familiar surroundings.
589
00:28:42,138 --> 00:28:44,182
RAIN: Somebody needs
to be on door one
590
00:28:44,265 --> 00:28:45,725
'cause if I need
an emergency exit,
591
00:28:45,808 --> 00:28:47,435
I'm going that way.
592
00:28:48,519 --> 00:28:50,229
DR. BETSY: Okay,
her reversals are in.
593
00:28:53,566 --> 00:28:55,568
(gagging)
594
00:28:55,651 --> 00:28:59,822
All right, I'm clear.
595
00:28:59,906 --> 00:29:01,824
I'm just watching Maathai's
breathing to make sure
596
00:29:01,908 --> 00:29:04,160
that she is recovering okay.
597
00:29:04,243 --> 00:29:05,661
Come on, Maathai.
598
00:29:05,745 --> 00:29:07,622
(kissing sounds)
599
00:29:07,705 --> 00:29:09,916
Good girl. Good girl.
600
00:29:09,999 --> 00:29:12,084
There she is. Good morning.
601
00:29:12,168 --> 00:29:14,003
Hello.
602
00:29:14,086 --> 00:29:15,546
RAIN: Oh, hey, little girl.
603
00:29:15,630 --> 00:29:17,840
DR. BETSY: She starts to look
for something that's familiar,
604
00:29:17,924 --> 00:29:21,552
something that's reassuring.
605
00:29:21,636 --> 00:29:24,680
RAIN: You did
such a good job today.
606
00:29:24,764 --> 00:29:28,976
That's a good girl.
There you go, yeah.
607
00:29:29,060 --> 00:29:31,687
And for Maathai to make
that eye contact with her
608
00:29:31,771 --> 00:29:35,608
and to see her looking at you
and going, "Hey, I know you."
609
00:29:35,691 --> 00:29:39,946
Being that reassurance for
her is absolutely priceless.
610
00:29:40,029 --> 00:29:42,949
Yeah, we're gonna just
give you some peace and quiet.
611
00:29:43,032 --> 00:29:46,410
You can get a nice rest, okay?
612
00:29:46,494 --> 00:29:49,789
Yeah, you get some rest.
613
00:30:02,635 --> 00:30:04,595
CHRISTINE: Kevin,
our little crested coua chick,
614
00:30:04,679 --> 00:30:07,223
is now 20 days old.
615
00:30:07,306 --> 00:30:09,934
NARRATOR: Kevin thrives
on his hand-fed meals,
616
00:30:10,017 --> 00:30:12,353
now down to just three a day.
617
00:30:12,436 --> 00:30:15,481
CHRISTINE: He's ready to
graduate into the next step
618
00:30:15,565 --> 00:30:17,441
of our hand-rearing process.
619
00:30:17,525 --> 00:30:20,528
He's starting to spend
more time out of his nest,
620
00:30:20,611 --> 00:30:24,073
perching and things like that,
so I'll go ahead and get him,
621
00:30:24,156 --> 00:30:28,911
and we'll take him over to
meet some of our other chicks.
622
00:30:28,995 --> 00:30:32,748
All right, buddy,
let's head over.
623
00:30:32,832 --> 00:30:36,127
Ah! Look at your friends!
624
00:30:36,210 --> 00:30:37,128
(hissing)
625
00:30:37,211 --> 00:30:40,298
They recognize him
by just his coloration.
626
00:30:40,381 --> 00:30:41,299
(hissing)
627
00:30:41,382 --> 00:30:42,300
What are you guys doing?
628
00:30:42,383 --> 00:30:43,384
(hissing)
629
00:30:43,467 --> 00:30:45,344
So their vocalizations,
I think they're trying to,
630
00:30:45,428 --> 00:30:47,138
you know, they'll
encourage him to come out
631
00:30:47,221 --> 00:30:51,559
and come and hang out with them.
632
00:30:51,642 --> 00:30:53,436
Are you gonna go with them?
633
00:30:53,519 --> 00:30:54,437
You want to go?
634
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,356
(hissing)
635
00:30:59,984 --> 00:31:03,362
Oh, there you are!
636
00:31:03,446 --> 00:31:04,947
Go say hello.
637
00:31:05,031 --> 00:31:08,993
I would say he's
looking pretty good.
638
00:31:09,076 --> 00:31:11,495
NARRATOR: His new
friends are six days older
639
00:31:11,579 --> 00:31:14,582
and should help him
with his next life skill,
640
00:31:14,665 --> 00:31:16,167
feeding himself.
641
00:31:16,250 --> 00:31:18,044
CHRISTINE: Once he gets
in here with these guys,
642
00:31:18,127 --> 00:31:19,962
it shouldn't take him very long.
643
00:31:20,046 --> 00:31:21,964
He will want to follow them,
644
00:31:22,048 --> 00:31:24,926
kind of like a younger child
with an older child.
645
00:31:25,009 --> 00:31:26,636
Hey, you're going to the food.
646
00:31:26,719 --> 00:31:30,806
Let me go over
there with you as well.
647
00:31:30,890 --> 00:31:31,974
NARRATOR: But sometimes,
648
00:31:32,058 --> 00:31:36,187
these chicks aren't
so eager to grow up.
649
00:31:36,270 --> 00:31:40,232
MEGAN: What I'm doing right now
is I am just monitoring Kevin
650
00:31:40,316 --> 00:31:45,112
'cause they do like
to fake us out and pretend
651
00:31:45,196 --> 00:31:48,115
that they don't know how to
eat on their own, but they do.
652
00:31:48,199 --> 00:31:50,493
They just want
Mama to feed them.
653
00:31:50,576 --> 00:31:52,161
(hissing)
654
00:31:52,244 --> 00:31:54,288
NARRATOR: To move
to his outdoor habitat,
655
00:31:54,372 --> 00:31:57,083
Kevin must master
eating from the bowl.
656
00:31:57,166 --> 00:32:00,461
Keeper Megan has a plan.
657
00:32:00,544 --> 00:32:03,214
MEGAN: Hey, Kevin.
658
00:32:03,297 --> 00:32:05,424
Come on. I know.
659
00:32:05,508 --> 00:32:09,345
So, this is all part of
having Kevin learn how to eat.
660
00:32:09,428 --> 00:32:12,306
I'm not feeding him.
661
00:32:12,390 --> 00:32:15,726
I'm just moving the food
just to gain his attention.
662
00:32:20,356 --> 00:32:21,273
Awesome.
663
00:32:21,357 --> 00:32:22,525
There's a good baby.
664
00:32:22,608 --> 00:32:26,737
NARRATOR: Kevin makes his first
pecks towards independence.
665
00:32:26,821 --> 00:32:28,823
MEGAN: Hey, bud, want some more?
666
00:32:28,906 --> 00:32:30,324
You've had enough? Okay.
667
00:32:30,408 --> 00:32:32,618
That's okay,
we'll come back later.
668
00:32:36,998 --> 00:32:39,667
NARRATOR: Behind
the scenes at The Seas,
669
00:32:39,750 --> 00:32:41,502
rescued manatee Jolo
670
00:32:41,585 --> 00:32:43,754
gets a revisit from Doctor Jen.
671
00:32:43,838 --> 00:32:45,381
DR. JEN: So, last time,
it was pretty bad.
672
00:32:45,464 --> 00:32:47,591
She had live
parasites crawling around.
673
00:32:47,675 --> 00:32:49,552
They were
crawling out of her nose.
674
00:32:49,635 --> 00:32:51,345
She had a lot of mucus.
675
00:32:51,429 --> 00:32:52,388
It was pretty gross.
676
00:32:52,471 --> 00:32:54,932
So, today we're gonna
stick a scope into her nose
677
00:32:55,016 --> 00:32:58,102
and see if they're improving.
678
00:32:58,185 --> 00:33:01,522
NARRATOR: Doctor Nati
comes to help and because
679
00:33:01,605 --> 00:33:04,483
she can never turn
down a look at a parasite.
680
00:33:05,151 --> 00:33:07,737
PRODUCER: Dr. Nati, why
are you so into parasites?
681
00:33:08,154 --> 00:33:09,280
(Doctor Jen laughs)
682
00:33:09,363 --> 00:33:11,032
DR. NATI: They're just, I
don't know, they're fascinating.
683
00:33:11,115 --> 00:33:14,577
People think of
parasites as basic animals,
684
00:33:14,660 --> 00:33:16,996
but they are so highly complex,
685
00:33:17,079 --> 00:33:20,124
and they have
such complex life cycles
686
00:33:20,207 --> 00:33:24,086
and the ways that
they live in their hosts.
687
00:33:24,170 --> 00:33:29,258
And I have to say I, I really
love the gross and the gory.
688
00:33:29,341 --> 00:33:32,595
NARRATOR: While the gross
and gory can be fascinating,
689
00:33:32,678 --> 00:33:35,431
if the infection
doesn't respond to medication,
690
00:33:35,514 --> 00:33:38,225
Jolo's release
could be at risk.
691
00:33:38,309 --> 00:33:39,602
DR. JEN: Everyone keep
your fingers crossed...
692
00:33:39,685 --> 00:33:40,728
Thank you.
693
00:33:40,895 --> 00:33:42,772
For good news.
694
00:33:44,940 --> 00:33:46,859
The moment of truth.
695
00:33:46,942 --> 00:33:48,027
Nice timing.
696
00:33:50,529 --> 00:33:52,490
DR. JEN: That was a breath.
697
00:33:52,573 --> 00:33:54,408
Wow.
698
00:33:54,492 --> 00:33:58,079
Oh, my gosh, you guys,
look at this!
699
00:33:58,162 --> 00:33:59,205
Look at that!
700
00:33:59,288 --> 00:34:00,664
KEEPER: This is
just a week's time?
701
00:34:00,748 --> 00:34:03,876
DR. JEN: A normal manatee nose!
KEEPER: This is fantastic!
702
00:34:03,959 --> 00:34:06,253
DR. JEN: Oh, my gosh,
this is amazing.
703
00:34:06,337 --> 00:34:09,715
All the inflammation's gone.
It's like nothing.
704
00:34:09,799 --> 00:34:13,135
DR. NATI: Wow, looking at that,
you would not know
705
00:34:13,219 --> 00:34:14,553
anything was ever wrong.
706
00:34:14,637 --> 00:34:16,847
DR. JEN: Doesn't even
look like the same manatee.
707
00:34:16,931 --> 00:34:18,265
DR. NATI: Mm-hmm.
708
00:34:18,349 --> 00:34:19,475
DR. JEN: Well, this
looks a million times better
709
00:34:19,558 --> 00:34:21,727
than last time
I passed the scope.
710
00:34:24,230 --> 00:34:26,315
DR. NATI: I would have loved
711
00:34:26,398 --> 00:34:28,526
seeing those
parasites firsthand,
712
00:34:28,609 --> 00:34:30,653
but it's a win for the manatee,
713
00:34:30,736 --> 00:34:34,740
so I'm okay with a little bit
of disappointment for myself.
714
00:34:36,992 --> 00:34:38,661
(snorts)
715
00:34:41,831 --> 00:34:43,499
DR. JEN: We need to put
a little bit more weight on her
716
00:34:43,582 --> 00:34:45,543
before she gets
released back into the wild,
717
00:34:45,626 --> 00:34:47,837
and then she
should be good to go.
718
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,714
I think Jolo here
got pretty lucky.
719
00:35:03,644 --> 00:35:05,396
KAREN: This is one of
my favorite things to do,
720
00:35:05,479 --> 00:35:09,150
just watching the,
the clouds and the mist.
721
00:35:09,233 --> 00:35:10,484
After you let the animals out,
722
00:35:10,568 --> 00:35:15,072
they often will just
run across the savanna.
723
00:35:15,156 --> 00:35:17,658
Oh, and look,
we have a couple eland
724
00:35:17,741 --> 00:35:19,869
that have now
joined us on the savanna.
725
00:35:19,952 --> 00:35:22,288
There he is, Mr. Handsome.
726
00:35:22,371 --> 00:35:23,831
Ben has his own fan club,
727
00:35:23,914 --> 00:35:25,332
and when he's not
out here on the savanna,
728
00:35:25,499 --> 00:35:27,543
people ask, "Where's Ben?"
729
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:30,921
He's just impressive.
730
00:35:31,005 --> 00:35:32,548
He's just laid-back.
731
00:35:32,631 --> 00:35:35,509
Animals usually
move out of his way.
732
00:35:35,593 --> 00:35:38,762
He's definitely an animal
that I hold dear to my heart
733
00:35:38,846 --> 00:35:42,141
because I was
around when he was born.
734
00:35:45,060 --> 00:35:47,563
Oh, there he goes again.
735
00:35:47,646 --> 00:35:50,941
Good job, Ben.
You get that bush.
736
00:35:51,025 --> 00:35:53,068
Get those grasses.
737
00:35:53,152 --> 00:35:54,486
So, they do that, you know,
738
00:35:54,570 --> 00:35:57,990
it's adornment to look big
and attractive to the ladies.
739
00:35:58,073 --> 00:35:59,158
We'll often just laugh and say,
740
00:35:59,241 --> 00:36:01,410
"Yeah, you go,
you tear up that bush."
741
00:36:01,493 --> 00:36:03,495
And, you know, he'll just
rub his head in the ground,
742
00:36:03,579 --> 00:36:05,915
and he'll pick it up
and have it on his head,
743
00:36:05,998 --> 00:36:07,416
or he'll just toss it around.
744
00:36:07,499 --> 00:36:09,919
Sometimes it'll just
be something little,
745
00:36:10,002 --> 00:36:12,880
and then sometimes he'll just
dig his whole forehead, like,
746
00:36:12,963 --> 00:36:14,673
down into the ground.
747
00:36:14,757 --> 00:36:18,093
Got to impress the ladies, man.
Get a nice hat now.
748
00:36:18,177 --> 00:36:20,679
He's just,
he's beautiful-looking.
749
00:36:30,022 --> 00:36:31,899
RAIN: All right, cheetah time!
750
00:36:31,982 --> 00:36:33,400
Woo-hoo-hoo!
751
00:36:33,484 --> 00:36:36,987
Good morning, ladies.
How are you this morning?
752
00:36:37,071 --> 00:36:39,323
Okay, yeah, a little
grooming has to happen here.
753
00:36:39,406 --> 00:36:41,492
Make sure
everybody's faces are clean.
754
00:36:41,575 --> 00:36:42,826
NARRATOR: It's been 12 weeks
755
00:36:42,910 --> 00:36:45,621
since Maathai started
her stomach treatment.
756
00:36:45,704 --> 00:36:46,747
RAIN: She's got a medicine
757
00:36:46,830 --> 00:36:49,667
that really is helping
her stomach to heal.
758
00:36:49,750 --> 00:36:51,252
And then she's got
another medication
759
00:36:51,335 --> 00:36:55,673
that's going to help
treat any extra bacteria.
760
00:36:55,756 --> 00:36:58,175
The treatment tool
that we're using temporarily
761
00:36:58,259 --> 00:37:01,136
just during
this little flare-up.
762
00:37:01,220 --> 00:37:02,388
I see you over there.
763
00:37:02,471 --> 00:37:05,516
(shaking noisemaker)
764
00:37:05,599 --> 00:37:07,226
NARRATOR: Today
is a chance to see
765
00:37:07,309 --> 00:37:09,687
if Maathai's
recovery is on track.
766
00:37:09,770 --> 00:37:11,313
RAIN: When she's
not feeling well,
767
00:37:11,397 --> 00:37:12,690
she doesn't train very much.
768
00:37:12,773 --> 00:37:14,984
She really doesn't
get excited about things.
769
00:37:15,067 --> 00:37:17,152
She's not as interactive.
770
00:37:17,236 --> 00:37:20,948
And so today is really gonna be
kind of the big test for her,
771
00:37:21,031 --> 00:37:24,034
to showcase whether or
not she's back to 100%.
772
00:37:24,118 --> 00:37:26,287
We're so excited!
773
00:37:26,370 --> 00:37:29,581
You feel like
doing some training?
774
00:37:29,665 --> 00:37:30,749
Come on in.
775
00:37:30,833 --> 00:37:32,334
Atta girl. Look at that.
776
00:37:32,418 --> 00:37:33,627
What do you think?
777
00:37:33,711 --> 00:37:36,839
NARRATOR: The challenge;
Voluntary injections.
778
00:37:36,922 --> 00:37:38,382
RAIN: I'm gonna
give her a treat here
779
00:37:38,465 --> 00:37:41,885
and then kind of poke her where
she would get an injection.
780
00:37:41,969 --> 00:37:43,887
All right, sit.
781
00:37:43,971 --> 00:37:44,930
(clicks)
782
00:37:45,014 --> 00:37:48,142
Very nice. Thank you.
783
00:37:48,225 --> 00:37:49,685
Are you ready again? Touch.
784
00:37:49,768 --> 00:37:50,686
(hiss)
785
00:37:50,769 --> 00:37:53,814
I know, I know.
Oh, poking, poking, poking.
786
00:37:53,981 --> 00:37:55,441
Good girl!
787
00:37:55,566 --> 00:37:56,900
When you
weren't feeling so good,
788
00:37:56,984 --> 00:37:58,360
you didn't want to do it.
789
00:37:58,694 --> 00:38:01,613
NARRATOR: Mock injection done,
Rain asks Maathai to get
790
00:38:01,697 --> 00:38:04,366
in position
for a fake ultrasound.
791
00:38:04,450 --> 00:38:06,827
RAIN: All the way down.
792
00:38:06,910 --> 00:38:07,828
Really?
793
00:38:07,911 --> 00:38:10,581
Well, sitting is close,
but it's not down.
794
00:38:13,167 --> 00:38:14,126
(clicks)
795
00:38:14,209 --> 00:38:15,711
Thank you. Good girl.
796
00:38:15,794 --> 00:38:18,630
That's a good girl.
There you go.
797
00:38:18,714 --> 00:38:20,299
All right, that's
all we needed to do.
798
00:38:20,382 --> 00:38:21,592
You're all done!
799
00:38:21,675 --> 00:38:25,179
You are 100% sparkly,
shiny Maathai.
800
00:38:25,262 --> 00:38:26,305
Look at that.
801
00:38:26,388 --> 00:38:28,057
I can tell, yeah,
you're feeling good.
802
00:38:28,140 --> 00:38:29,516
You're eating well.
803
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,269
You're bright-eyed.
You're ready to go.
804
00:38:32,353 --> 00:38:35,397
Thai! She's back!
805
00:38:35,481 --> 00:38:37,900
Really fun to be able
to see her engage right away,
806
00:38:37,983 --> 00:38:40,069
and she stayed focused,
and she's wanting to work,
807
00:38:40,152 --> 00:38:41,320
and she's learning new things.
808
00:38:41,403 --> 00:38:43,614
And so that is
just wonderful to see.
809
00:38:43,697 --> 00:38:45,699
I'm really happy
with how she looks.
810
00:38:45,783 --> 00:38:47,242
That's great.
811
00:38:52,831 --> 00:38:54,291
CHRISTINE: So,
this little guy over here
812
00:38:54,375 --> 00:38:55,751
looks like he's taken
a little bit of a bath
813
00:38:55,834 --> 00:38:56,877
in his water bowl.
814
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:58,754
This is Kevin.
815
00:39:00,756 --> 00:39:03,550
NARRATOR: After 30 days
of meticulous care,
816
00:39:03,634 --> 00:39:07,054
crested coua
Kevin is all grown up,
817
00:39:07,137 --> 00:39:10,682
and he's no
longer an only child.
818
00:39:10,766 --> 00:39:14,144
CHRISTINE: Kelvin
is his brother.
819
00:39:14,228 --> 00:39:15,854
This little crested coua chick
820
00:39:15,938 --> 00:39:18,857
hatched right after Kevin did.
821
00:39:18,941 --> 00:39:21,527
NARRATOR: Now that Kevin's
mastered feeding himself,
822
00:39:21,610 --> 00:39:25,447
the brothers are ready
for their time in the sun.
823
00:39:25,531 --> 00:39:27,408
CHRISTINE: We're
seeing a lot of perching,
824
00:39:27,491 --> 00:39:29,451
they're going back and forth,
so we really think
825
00:39:29,535 --> 00:39:33,622
that they are ready
for their next step outdoors,
826
00:39:33,705 --> 00:39:35,332
so we're super excited.
827
00:39:38,877 --> 00:39:42,464
They are ready to go.
828
00:39:42,548 --> 00:39:44,299
All right, so here we go.
829
00:39:44,383 --> 00:39:48,095
This is gonna be very
exciting for them, hopefully.
830
00:39:48,178 --> 00:39:50,597
Oh!
831
00:39:50,681 --> 00:39:54,685
Kelvin went ahead
and just flew right out.
832
00:39:54,768 --> 00:39:56,061
Kevin, on the other hand,
833
00:39:56,145 --> 00:40:00,149
he's not really
sure what's happening.
834
00:40:04,862 --> 00:40:06,905
Here he is.
835
00:40:11,034 --> 00:40:15,330
So, what he's doing right
now is he's found a sun spot,
836
00:40:15,414 --> 00:40:17,499
so it might take
him a few minutes
837
00:40:17,583 --> 00:40:18,917
to head over to the perch
838
00:40:19,001 --> 00:40:23,172
because he is
trying to get some sun.
839
00:40:26,258 --> 00:40:27,926
(laughs)
840
00:40:29,595 --> 00:40:31,680
Hi, buddy.
841
00:40:31,763 --> 00:40:33,307
And there he goes.
842
00:40:39,563 --> 00:40:42,357
Just the fact that he's, um,
already going up to the perch
843
00:40:42,441 --> 00:40:47,905
and trying to sun, we couldn't
ask for anything better.
844
00:40:47,988 --> 00:40:51,116
Bye, Kevin, we'll see you later.
845
00:40:55,954 --> 00:40:58,707
NARRATOR: Back at The Seas...
846
00:40:58,790 --> 00:41:02,377
DR. NATI: We put
some girth on her.
847
00:41:02,461 --> 00:41:05,047
NARRATOR: After months
of rehabilitation...
848
00:41:05,130 --> 00:41:06,715
KEEPER: Go, go, go, go!
849
00:41:06,798 --> 00:41:09,343
NARRATOR: Jolo's going home.
850
00:41:09,426 --> 00:41:12,012
DR. NATI: She's super strong.
I love seeing that.
851
00:41:12,095 --> 00:41:13,764
She all settled in for the ride?
852
00:41:13,847 --> 00:41:16,850
She looks like
she found a comfy spot.
853
00:41:16,934 --> 00:41:19,186
This is the
grand finale for Jolo.
854
00:41:19,269 --> 00:41:21,563
She has been through so much,
855
00:41:21,647 --> 00:41:24,441
and she's done so well eating
856
00:41:24,525 --> 00:41:27,236
and gaining weight and
recovering from her infection,
857
00:41:27,319 --> 00:41:29,655
and so today
she gets the big reward
858
00:41:29,738 --> 00:41:34,201
of going back out
into the wild waterways.
859
00:41:34,284 --> 00:41:36,745
NARRATOR: Jolo's ready to
be back where she belongs
860
00:41:36,828 --> 00:41:40,165
at the state park.
861
00:41:40,249 --> 00:41:42,417
KEEPER: Everybody
in your assigned places.
862
00:41:42,501 --> 00:41:43,418
KEEPER 2: Are you ready?
863
00:41:43,502 --> 00:41:44,419
KEEPER: We're ready.
864
00:41:44,503 --> 00:41:47,297
KEEPER 2: Lifting.
865
00:41:47,381 --> 00:41:49,049
DR. NATI: Jolo
is such a trouper.
866
00:41:49,132 --> 00:41:50,884
She's been through a lot,
867
00:41:50,968 --> 00:41:53,053
and she just
keeps moving forward,
868
00:41:53,136 --> 00:41:55,514
one flipper in
front of the other.
869
00:41:58,517 --> 00:41:59,810
She looks nice and calm, Conrad.
870
00:41:59,893 --> 00:42:00,852
CONRAD: She does, I know.
871
00:42:00,936 --> 00:42:02,271
DR. NATI: She's
doing really well.
872
00:42:02,354 --> 00:42:03,814
Nice breath.
873
00:42:03,897 --> 00:42:06,358
Smell the water close by?
874
00:42:06,441 --> 00:42:10,028
NARRATOR: Jolo will keep
in touch with a GPS tag
875
00:42:10,112 --> 00:42:12,823
that'll easily
break free if snagged.
876
00:42:12,906 --> 00:42:14,199
DR. NATI: Jolo's
gonna be providing
877
00:42:14,283 --> 00:42:17,160
important information for
us with the satellite tracker.
878
00:42:17,244 --> 00:42:20,122
We'll learn about
the success of her return,
879
00:42:20,205 --> 00:42:23,292
and that will help us learn
and make sure that we're doing
880
00:42:23,375 --> 00:42:25,127
all we can to make
sure that they thrive
881
00:42:25,210 --> 00:42:27,796
once they go back in the water.
882
00:42:32,050 --> 00:42:33,677
Doctor Jen made me
promise to give you
883
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:37,681
a little hug and a
kiss before you go.
884
00:42:37,764 --> 00:42:41,852
Look at those pretty,
clean nostrils.
885
00:42:41,935 --> 00:42:43,895
No worms in there anymore.
886
00:42:46,565 --> 00:42:48,609
KEEPER: Everybody ready?
887
00:42:48,692 --> 00:42:51,737
All right, one, two, three.
888
00:42:56,283 --> 00:42:58,035
DR. NATI: Here's the big moment.
889
00:42:58,118 --> 00:43:01,705
KEEPER: All right, guys,
stretcher down.
890
00:43:01,788 --> 00:43:03,957
DR. NATI: All right, Jolo,
it's time to go.
891
00:43:07,210 --> 00:43:13,759
(applause)
892
00:43:13,842 --> 00:43:15,427
There she goes.
893
00:43:15,510 --> 00:43:16,678
Aw!
894
00:43:16,762 --> 00:43:19,640
Oh!
895
00:43:19,723 --> 00:43:21,266
Oh, look at her.
896
00:43:26,396 --> 00:43:30,233
We will miss her, but for us,
the exciting thing is knowing
897
00:43:30,317 --> 00:43:32,861
that she's back
where she belongs.
898
00:43:32,944 --> 00:43:36,156
This is a really
good day for Jolo.
899
00:43:36,281 --> 00:43:39,868
NARRATOR: And this girl
wastes no time making friends.
900
00:43:39,951 --> 00:43:41,787
DR. NATI: It's
amazing to see her join
901
00:43:41,870 --> 00:43:44,831
other manatees so quickly.
902
00:43:44,915 --> 00:43:47,542
She's gonna be just fine.
903
00:43:47,959 --> 00:43:50,754
Are you having fun?
904
00:43:50,879 --> 00:43:53,173
She looks so happy.
905
00:43:54,966 --> 00:43:57,219
Today was a magical day.
906
00:43:58,929 --> 00:44:00,847
