[Music]
thank you
so
welcome to the world of amazing farm
animals
[Music]
having a day in the countryside henry
i'm going to my uncle's farm for a whole
week
he wants me to look after his farm
animals while he's away
oh a big zebra with horns henry that's a
cow
how can you look after farm animals when
you can't even recognize one
excuse me i know a farm animal when i
see one
[Music]
hey these must be the animals you get
cotton candy from
you wish henry they're sheep and they're
wearing wool coats not cotton candy
hmm so out of season i'd get your money
back on those coats guys
they didn't buy them it's their own fur
yeah sure
you can't pull the wool over my eyes
[Music]
so i finally arrived
boy am i looking forward to a quiet
break
hey what's all the noise
it's the chickens henry it must be
feeding time
great what are we having henry you've
got a lot to learn about being a farmer
i know i have to find someone to teach
me the banjo
first you better make sure all your farm
animals are fed healthy and safe
from harm oh me yes you
that's a farmer's job what do you call a
farmhand who looks after the cows
uh cowboy you're right so how come i've
never heard of a
boy or a turkey boy
or a sheep boy who looks after those
animals a shepherd of course
yeah but who's ever heard of a duck herd
huh farmers don't just keep cows and
sheep
all over the world from the sahara
desert to south america
animals are kept for their wool milk
eggs and meat did you say meat or wheat
farmers need to grow crops too there's a
lot of work on a farm henry
great
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
oh
[Music]
still think you're on your vacation
henry i'm keeping a close eye on the
cows
and catching some rays at the same time
what the f get out of my son
oh so you want to play huh
okay fetch
henry it's not a dog i know that
but the cow doesn't seem to henry cows
aren't
pets they're not what's the point in
keeping a coward you can't play
with it okay
team listen up you block you go long
and you get me some ice cream 52 49
99 hey they're not hopping
come on guys it's easy i really don't
think they want to play henry
yes they do they just need a bit of
encouragement
okay let's go guys
[Applause]
henry but it was a nice safe
this is bad isn't it
lesson number one in farming henry how
to tell the cows from the bulls
couldn't you have told me earlier bulls
are male
cows are female they have udders between
their legs
this is utter magnus what are those guys
doing
milking the cows these friesian cows can
each produce around 100 glasses of milk
every day that's amazing
yup just think of all the cookies you'd
need to eat
people once milked all cows by hand but
modern dairy farms have machines that do
the job for them
one less chore for me hey is that
comfortable for the cows
having full utters is very uncomfortable
so the cows are glad to be milked
from moo-moo people on farms must drink
the freshest milk ever
delicious and good for you so is it true
that
chocolate milk comes from chocolate cows
sorry henry
cow's milk only comes in one flavor but
all female mammals produce milk
handy when there's no cows around
mongolia's nomadic people are always on
the move
their horses are essential for riding
carrying their tents
and for milk excuse me is that straight
from the horse's mouth
no it comes out the other end actually
very
funny so where does she keep her milking
machine
at the end of her arms what she melts
the mares that's the female horses by
hand
horses don't produce as much milk as
cows making mare's milk a valuable food
source in the harsh desert
the locals even offer some to the
spirits of the sky and the ground
as a thanksgiving well if they offered
me any horsey milk you know what i'd say
what good grief
[Music]
okay you sheep make your way to the gate
single file please
hey you no butting in what are you doing
henry
can't you see i'm in the middle of
something so i see
you're trying to hurt the sheep huh i
don't think they heard anything
no herding sheep what farmers do to move
sheep from one place to another
but they get help from a sheep dog a dog
yes sheep are afraid of dogs so a
trained sheepdog can easily herd sheep
with instructions from the farmer
i know hey that's no sheep dog
no he's my sheep crab left of
nice work
right get em
yay not bad huh
um except except what
isn't it the sheep who are supposed to
be in the pen huh
oh no tuesday
i guess that's farming lesson number two
henry why round them up anyway
for shearing excuse me shearing every
spring
sheep have their long winter growth of
wool cut off the usual for you madam
short up the back longer on top sorry to
keep you waiting sir won't be a minute
the sheepdog is on hand to make sure
that nobody runs away
all right you guys everybody up against
the wall see
no funny business see cool it henry
sheep are some of the most obedient farm
animals around and they're glad to get
rid of their hot winter wool as summer
approaches
besides it's going to a good use let me
guess
belly button fluff no uh
i know wait vegetarian sausage stuffing
i don't think so uh
is it piano wires no henry don't be so
ridiculous
i know i know like you said it's wool
you make clothes out of it it's spun
into thread and that gets woven into
cloth
it's the stuff that makes my grandpa's
underwear scratchy
it's what aunt helen knits me a sweater
out of every christmas
dead suits mom sucks warm in winter
cool in summer wool is everywhere
and you can buy it pretty colors
wow ten points henry
so what do you think is happening here
feeding time at caterpillar ranch
they're called silkworms but you're
right really they're caterpillars
they're spinning cocoons where they'd
normally transform into a moth or
butterfly in the wild
but on a silk farm the cocoons are
unwound again
just like the sheep's wool the tiny
lines of silk get wound onto big reels
and then woven into luxurious fabric
is that what her shoes are made of and
her skirt
and her scarf oh i hope it isn't as
scratchy as my wool sweaters
hardly henry it's as smooth as silk
wowie
beautiful imagine me as a ballerina
in the nutcracker i can dance on my
tippy toes and i've got a cute ballerina
nose uh-oh i think your nut has finally
[Music]
cracked
[Music]
wow
henry henry it's time for your report on
unusual farm animals
what now yes now
out of my way journal lizard coming
through
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
tonight leopard spotted sleeping on the
job
and tint making bets an undercover
report
[Music]
but now our top story
[Music]
farmers suspected of hatching secret
plan mysterious farm activity has been
reported
from several barns it's believed that
giant chickens are being raised
in hidden locations around the world at
night
huge egg cartons were seen being shipped
out of the back door
neighbors say loud clucking noises kept
them awake
and other farm animals were moved to new
pastures to make room for the giant
birds
geese migrated to florida goats headed
for the hills
but the sheep weren't bothered at all
witnesses claim the monster fowl have
tall legs
fluffy feathers and a head the size of a
football
if you ask me i think the whole
conspiracy
is just a big yolk
you think they bought it you couldn't
even give it away henry
let's
although there may be a tiny bit of
truth buried in there somewhere
aha so there is something they've buried
down on the farm
i knew it it's not all fluffy little
lambs
and cozy comfy cows is it is it what
is the secret behind the barn door which
no one dares tell
what ginormous two-toed creatures are
waiting to attack
could they be a flock of dinosaurs
welcome to jurassic farm they're coming
this way
calm down henry these are ostriches not
dinosaurs
not dinosaurs nope for farmers these
huge flightless birds are a big source
of low-fat
meat i wouldn't want to meet one not
with a kick like that
those powerful legs make them the
fastest bird in the world and all that
running keeps them lean
and mean ostrich farms were actually
created to supply giant fluffy feathers
ostrich feather hats were once a popular
fashion item
they're now big business there are more
farmed ostriches worldwide than wild
ones in their native africa
i still think farms are for chickens
even the humble chicken was once a wild
bird of the jungle
me tarzan
i can't see it somehow
Carrot
[Music]
given up on farming animals henry yeah
vegetables are much easier to look after
if i could just get
this carrot would be huge i don't think
so henry it looks like somebody's trying
to steal it go you
carrot mapper you're mine
hey i found my carrot oh
and a cute bunny rabbit did you see who
tried to take it uh henry
i think you've found your thief what do
you mean
no way not the rabbit you may think that
he's cute but to most farmers
he's a pest hmm i know all about pests
Bear
i've got baby cousins
so what's this that's no pest it's a
mole but to farmers all their tunneling
under fields can damage crops
the mole doesn't mean any harm of course
not all animals are just trying to
survive
but sometimes they come into conflict
with humans
take this hungry spectacled bear
spectacled bears live in the andes
mountains of south america
the bears love to eat grapes guavas and
avocados
but this one's found a convenient field
of corn
you'll call it corn farmers call it
maize
farmers call it stealing crops which
makes the bear a pest
she's not the only one eating it true
but a spectacled bear can do a lot of
damage
they're the biggest mammal on the
continent i guess you'd say she's making
a spectacle of herself
but you don't need glasses to see that
there are a lot of pests around this
maze field
the bear's name comes from the yellow
rings around their eyes
some people think they look like glasses
and there she goes
an amazing maze-eating animal
henry talk about a corny joke
wow
Scarecrow
okay no pesky pests are getting any of
my corn
oh no and just how are you going to stop
them
[Music]
the ultimate scarecrow the verminator
wow looks pretty scary it even sounds
scary
listen
wow it dries your laundry but it hasn't
scared that crow off
i ain't finished yet
so now the crow can see the corn better
not for long
watch this see
i told you it would work
well henry that's one way to stop pests
eating crops
get rid of the crops
maybe it needs a few modifications maybe
what you need henry is a big goose
excuse me down on the farm geese do a
Geese
great job of scaring off unwanted
animals and keeping others in line
why geese see all strangers as a
possible threat
so they act like guards patrolling the
farm yard guard geese
here boy don't worry about those things
hey where'd he go he's steering clear he
knows those powerful wings can really
hurt if they give you a whack
oh well
hey kitty kitty oh
here comes the patrol again can't you
guys give it a break
how am i gonna make friends on the floor
if you chase them all away
wait for you to fly south for the winter
no chance of that henry
farm guarding geese stay on duty all
year round
constant protection for all kinds of
animals who said what's good for the
goose is good for the gecko
Llama
or something protection is a matter of
survival for farm animals
especially when they can't defend
themselves from wild predators
yeah like sheep or sheepish
and lambs are bashful
and llamas are top dogs at guarding
sheep
say llamas i had a llama dolly when i
was a kid
a dalai lama yeah get it a dolly
llama
[Music]
box call the police the fire department
call the llama squad
it's an emergency the fox i see it
thanks to the llamas so did the sheep
squad to the rescue
[Music]
no lamb chops for you foxy lucky those
llamas were there
it is lucky their guarding skills were
discovered by accident
don't tell a llama once wandered into a
sheep field by mistake
farmers realized the long-necked llamas
could spot predators before the sheep
would
and the llamas were happy to live
alongside their fellow grazers
that is amazing well to the little
lambies
they're heroes and to me they're perfect
for what for looking after the farm
for me
Golden Gecko
[Music]
and now ladies and gentle lizards
it's time for a henry's amazing golden
gecko awards the winners of my all-time
best amazing farm
animal are
in third place silkworms those little
guys of the farm
who have expensive tasting clothes my
kind of
in caterpillars place the spectacle bear
uh
mostly because she couldn't bear to lose
talk about being a pants
[Music]
but tonight's golden gecko award plus a
matching set of stick knives
goes to the cows that's right
Golden Gecko Award
cows bulls steers and all cattle kind
too many kinds to mention you know who
you are
cows and their relatives cover our
planet in their millions
they live on farms and provide us with
milk meat
and uh even something to shovel onto the
flower bed
there's the mighty highland cattle it's
got a superb set of horns
and it's shaggy enough to withstand the
harshest scottish winters
then there's the yak a close cow
relative from the mountains of central
asia
they can survive even worse conditions
thanks to a furry muzzle
a furry neck furry everything except for
horns of course
so if you're feeling low get on the horn
and call a yak
that's what they'll do yak yak yak yak
not like the bison also called the
american buffalo
more the strong silent type they're the
biggest land animal in north america
and all that hair on the front end makes
them look even bigger and keeps them
warm in winter
so hey all you cows out there we think
you're
golden gecko great so keep on moving
[Music]
what what time to get up henry there's
work to do
oh work what work
i did it yesterday and today you have to
do it
all over again that's how it is with
farms henry
oh no is there no rest for the lizard
easy for you to say all you have to do
is make a noise
you don't even have to get your own
breakfast don't be such a grouch henry
without farm animals producing eggs milk
and bacon
not to mention the cereals grown on
farms you wouldn't have any breakfast
maybe i'll just stick to juice even the
fruit for juice is grown on farms henry
what i'm sorry henry you gotta work hard
when you're looking after amazing
farm animals come on tuesday
where do i see my uncle boy am i gonna
tell him
