03x34 - Giant Animals

Post by bunniefuu »

welcome to the world of amazing giant

animals

hi Henry

looks like you're having fun can't talk

now right to ride come on what's taking

so long sorry to interrupt your fun

little guy but we have a show to do here

not until I've gone on the super whirly

quintuple I can't wait they won't let

you on the ride how come cuz I'm too

small that's why I never mind you got to

go on all the other rides but I want to

go on this one

I wish I was thicker hmm I know Henry

just call me Liz it is giganticus you'll

never get away with it

Oh No watch me

Henry speak to me are you okay I don't

know it's all right mom

I won't be late me school Henry Henry

I'm going to play with the other big

kids in your dreams Henry I wish I were

giant like that well but that he can go

where he wants I don't think he'd fit on

the roller coaster somehow a big must be

great you can reach high things let me

guess

like the cookie jar

your friends can always find you

especially in a crowd you can eat and

eat and eat they never get full best of

all nobody messes with giant animals ya

know what baby rhinos do when they grow

up what anything they want to that's why

when I grow up

hey except maybe I'll be more polite you

already have something in common with

that elephant seal I do and you're both

immature excuse me

immature just means you're still growing

oh I guess that's okay

this elephant seal pup has a lot of

growing up to do only the biggest males

ever get a chance to become fathers

about 1 in 50 is that fair I don't think

so it's the way of the wild but a pup

like him can gain the weight of a grown

up man in just three weeks thanks to his

mother's rich milk Wow I'd give that

milk my seal of approval

keep drinking kiddo you've got a long

way to go

whoa is the world getting bigger or is

it me it's definitely not you

that's a Giant's Castle this can mean

only one thing

beanstalks

magic fee fie foe fum no giant food Wow

check out that egg the duck who laid

that must be inna no that would be

ridiculous if it's giant food you're

after you'll have to get past that guard

dog

first what that big softy Oh close you

really have to watch out for these giant

animals all right

giant snack time only one problem Henry

yeah the giant still eating the pizza

Oh

maybe shouting lunch with a child wasn't

such a great idea

you got that right Henry you have to

watch your step when you share a dinner

table with a giant animal oh come on

that tortoise isn't so big I was talking

about elephants the biggest land animals

in the world they need to eat and drink

a lot about a bathtub full of water

every day well I hope it doesn't even

run but that tortoise is in trouble

hey watch your step Bigfoot don't worry

Henry elephants have sensitive feet they

can easily sidestep little guys lucky

for us their trunks are equally

sensitive helping them dig up minerals

essential for their diet hmm part of

this balanced breakfast I've made mud

pies before but it takes an elephant to

actually eat one hey guess who's coming

to dinner a family of warthogs and some

buffalo competition at the waterhole onc

waterhole you get dinner and dancing not

for long

this young elephant is breaking up the

party an advantage of being a giant even

when you're a kid you're a big kid you

get all the month to yourself sighs has

other advantages you don't have to be

scared of anything

I'm not big and I never get scared not

even by a hungry lion Henry Henry where

did he go

find the sofa oh my god the Bose you

might be cake food

think again Henry that's what the

lioness is doing she knows that one of

those hippos weighs as much as several

lions they may be heavy but she has

teeth

well hippos have even bigger teeth and

they know how to defend themselves

maybe hippos are tougher giants and I

thought yeah scaredy-cat it's not about

being scared it's about being smart

enough to know when they eat and when to

retreat

Henry Henry it's time for your news

report now yes now out of my way

journalism's coming to

tonight Koivu promises to clean up

attack

and elephants inspire other animals to

eat great

but now our top story a giant wolf has

been spotted in the woods near

grandmother's house I pastored by Little

Miss Riding Hood

well skipping the forest at the time she

claims the Beast had giant eyes as big

as oh dear please all the better for

x-ray vision and the nose as big as

uh-oh

yeah that's it a giant teeth all the

better for eating this hood escaped

safely by distracting the wolf for the

trail of gingerbread cookies and three

little food well looks like a case of

his eyes doing bigger Eddie's stomach

they bought it

you couldn't even give it away Henry Oh

rats

animals don't have big teeth for eating

dinosaurs with or huge eyes with x-ray

vision haha but they do have giant body

parts see get it see they have giant

features for good reasons Henry do you

see I see long legs uh-huh

strange taste in clothes yeah and the

world's longest Nick say it's a giraffe

you're right for once

giraffes have developed those long necks

to reach food that other grazing animals

can only dream up that's one guy who

doesn't mind sticking his neck out he

has to tree top leaves or a giraffes

main source of food combined with one of

the longest tongues around a giraffe's

neck and reach even the trickiest places

they'll need a trip to go out of that

twist they're necking Henry excuse

me necking mail swing their necks at one

another to decide who's boss

so how do they decide the one with the

strongest neck wins figures but having

such oversized body parts can have

drawbacks with such long legs and necks

giraffes have to go a long way down to

get a drink it can be a pain in the neck

bad joke even I wouldn't stoop so low

the people ran terrified as every city

under his feet could no one stop this

terrible monster only stop try fable

defender of the city could save the day

the people watched in helpless horror as

the two giants battled for supremacy

what's the matter Henry Zilla phone

booth mommy and so Pete's return to the

city as the terrifying Henry Zillah stop

home to his mom for a band-aid

giant monsters who needs him lots of

Komodo Dragon

people Henry for centuries they believe

stories of giant dragons and

fire-breathing creatures that live in

caves oh come on they're not real are

they oh did you say they live in caves

and breathe fire

yikes dragon it's a komodo dragon to be

precise just for once you have to be

precise look at that tone in those claws

NYX it'll be breathing fire not quiet

but it's got a mouthful of germs and the

world's worst case of bad breath just

one bite from this fella

could k*ll you oh maybe that's where the

ancient people got the story from could

be Henry in reality these dragons are

giant monitor lizards found on the

island of Komodo in Asia where many

Dragon stories came from

wait a minute you mean there are giant

lizards so there's still hope for me I

mean that baby monitor lizard can grow

up into a big fierce Komodo Zilla if he

gets the chance

even other Komodo dragons know better

than to get in the way of a large male

at 10 feet long the adults can move fast

and they have a giant appetite

I hope they can't climb trees not when

they're fully grown that's why the young

monitor lizards live in trees feeding on

insects until they're big enough to go

for larger prey like these rusa dear oh

dear oh dear my heart is full of fear

I've got a hunch that you'll be lunch so

go on get out of here

Duck Roe

having fun on that ride Henry rides my

oh I agree

Henry couldn't save us all from duck row

I'll show him he's not in vine burning

invulnerable Oh

but Harry I thought Dhokla was the

defender of the city a good guy

Oh

Henry Henry

Oh Oh Henry thank goodness you're all

right even better I found out why

duck Roe was making all that fuss he's a

shame and she has babies I told you she

was a gentle giant but would you listen

hey you can't take any chances when you

might get stepped on by your story

feather duster maybe you've learned a

Gorillas

lesson here giant animals don't always

deserve their reputation for years many

people thought gorillas were dangerous

K*llers because they didn't understand

them

yeah like kink oh boy was he a bruiser I

think he was misunderstood too real

gorillas are gentle animals and like

humans they're very curious it's my

cousin Clyde the chameleon hey Clive

watch it he's not worried Henry these

mountain gorillas and Uganda are plant

eaters not lizard eaters it's like

they're watching TV

I mean Shh just watch she's going to

kiss him make sure you're minty fresh

next time kiddo just kidding dad lighten

up

give them a break Henry gorillas may be

gentle giants but they're no pushovers

they're immensely strong so you should

have some respect I've got respect for

any ape who's nice to lizards right

Clyde

what about sharks though what about them

Whale Sharks

excuse me

but there are some giant animals I just

don't want to know oh go on

try make friends with this whale shark

oh no I'm not as crazy as that diver

he's a no danger

the whale shark may be the biggest fish

in the sea but it eats the smallest

things around plankton tiny animals

which live in the water whoa so the

biggest guy is it the littlest guys yep

that's right yeah come on why is it he

pick on somebody his own size oh Henry

well

Henrys Amazing Awards

and now ladies and gentle is ERDs

it's time for a Henry's amazing golden

deck awards and the winners of my

all-time most amazing animal Joe are in

third place the perfect religion cookies

on the top shelf even if they have to do

the splits to reach the milk in second

place the Komodo dragon this

neaten machine is one lizard you

wouldn't wanna meet in a dark cave

all-time best amazing edible giant goes

to the way

Blue Whales

there are lots of different whales but

the blue whale is the most amazing and

the shyest so rare she hardly ever

appears in front of cameras

the elusive superstar made a special

exception to collect tonight's award

blue whales are the biggest animals ever

to have lived on earth even bigger than

any dinosaur Wow that's big but don't

call them efficient no no there are

minnows just like you and though most of

our viewers out there

blue whales also make the biggest noise

of any animal but they don't yell

they Rumble one big Rumble could drown

out a cannon blast handy when you want

to call your friends long distance but

why bother calling when with a tail as

wide as the tail fin on a jumbo jet you

can swim there in no time with big

bodies come big appetites the humpback

has a really clever way to catch its

dinner enjoy it from the bottom and swim

up in a circle blowing bubbles as they

go they make a tube of rising bubbles

that works like an it pushing millions

of fish and really tiny animals called

krill to the surface krill are like

little bitty shrimps and whales love

them when the humpbacks reach the top

they open their mouths and scoop so it's

whales those loud smart big mouth guys

with huge appetites my favorite all-time

amazing giant animal

Giant Lizards

at last now my wish will be granted

still wishing you could be bigger Henry

yes and you can't stop me funny how much

he looks like your friend crab Tuesday

Oh Jeanne rapping I wish and make me a

giant among lizards I'm Jeanne I don't

look any different but you are a giant

among lizards next to those tiny guys

you look enormous Henry hey you're right

after all size is relative yeah hey

cousin how's it going not that relative

Henry oh I'm talking about being the big

Giant Termite

fish in a small pond or the biggest

termite in the termite mound keep

talking I might be interested

termites are the great construction

workers of the animal world and most of

them are tiny except for one member of

each colony the Queen she's a real

little giant up to 50 times bigger than

other termites her abdomen is the size

of a grown man's thumb excuse me a

beloved that abdomen the Queen uses it

to produce an egg every couple of

seconds that's thirty six thousand eggs

a day she must get tired of changing

diapers oh she has thousands of worker

termites to look after things and make

sure she's comfortable in her

air-conditioned chamber and conditioning

her well I know what she must be saying

then what's that

there's no place like home there's no

Henry the Giant

place like

and

Henry Henry are you okay huh what what

happened you knocked yourself out trying

to be bigger I did

you're not giant Harry been dreaming but

there was a giant pizza and and a puppy

so bad you could oh and this duck she

attitude Henry and so modest
