it's like a jungle in here a jungle a
desert
and everything in between there are
animals here from every habitat on earth
no kidding it looks like a lot of
animals all around the world
are fond of you enough with the cheesy
jokes already it's true animals from
high and low are making their way to be
at this party henry
[Music]
we've got snakes some of your old school
friends too
even crab tuesday invited some pals i
thought i smelled something fishy
i've been in a flap over this for weeks
the invitations went out by vulture post
we went from coast to coast to catch up
with friends we've made over the years
some are a little heavier
[Music]
some have had youngsters
but those guests have just stampeded in
from all over
even the ends of the earth just for
little old henry
excuse me but that's just beautiful
[Applause]
[Applause]
henry what are you doing what does it
look like
don't you think it's time you mingled a
little all right all right
hi there what's your name that's a
python henry
how nice remind me to give you a big hug
later i said i'd mingle not get mangled
howdy cody there lemur haven't we met
before
don't you remember our trip to the
rainforest henry ah
yes the natural home of chocolate
that was a trip to remember
[Music]
hey where'd the jungle go
where am i that was your first trip to
the rain forest henry
so it was pretty amazing to find that
ancient mayan temple
i thought i was in raiders of the lost
candy bar
but who would have guessed the mayans
had set a trap
wow check out those floor tiles
it was scary but i found my treasure
some
treasure there it's a chocolate plant
my favorite yes henry
that was before you realize there's a
lot more to the rain forest than just
chocolate
like rain they don't call it a rain
forest for nothing
an amazing array of plants and animals
thrive in these conditions
it usually only rains once a day but
when it does
it pours in south america's amazon
jungle
enough water pours into the river every
day to run a bath for
every person on earth so who let the
snazzle monster into our bath
that's a tapir henry a relative of the
horse and the rhino
the rain forest is full of some pretty
unusual animals
such as the tomanja and anteater which
lives in the trees
it can get pretty crowded up there on
those amazon highways too
you're just moseying along looking for
some ants when bam
along comes a tree porcupine going the
wrong way down a one-way branch
talk about traffic jams lucky there are
a lot of little side roads
you don't want to mess with those tree
porcupines they can get
pretty prickly
you have to appreciate the animals of
the rainforest henry
they play a large role in the continuing
growth of their forest trees and plant
life
lunch roll with cinnamon no wonder
they're fighting
not that kind of roll jungle animals
munching away on the fruits of the
forest
help to spread the seeds for a new
generation of rainforest plants
and these plants produce the oxygen we
breathe
which is why coming here is such a
breath of fresh air how right you
are
[Music]
[Music]
henry henry man
am i thirsty excuse me
[Music]
oh hey
she drank it all and i'm parched you
think
you're parched imagine living in the
desert like she does
i don't have to imagine i've seen it all
before
remember i remember you had some trouble
getting around when you first arrived
sheesh i've heard a quicksand but slow
shifting
said how does anybody get around on this
stuff desert animals have adapted to
life on the sand henry
they're more suited to it than you are
yeah
well if this works it'll suit me just
fine
it's aladdin's
yo lamp take me to the nearest swimming
pool
careful henry careful
[Music]
still glad you came henry
hey i'm a diamond in the rough
oh brother somebody ought to put a lawn
here a few trees
know what i mean save the sand for the
sandbox
i don't think there's a sandbox big
enough henry
this is an african desert and the
animals that live in it have to contend
with some
of the hottest driest conditions on
earth the fog stand beetle stands on her
head hoping a drop or two of morning dew
will trickle into her mouth
what a way to get a drink beets dancing
on hot sand
what would you do that sand burns if you
can't stand the heat
stay out of the desert
here's a burn proof way of crossing hot
sands can you guess the snake
is it mr wiggly try the sidewinder
oh
and what big feet you have theory who
could
you be they call them the ships of the
desert henry
i think they look like camels they
are camels with such broad feet they
won't sink in the sand
their adaptations for survival in the
desert are astounding
they can live for weeks without water
and their humps store precious food
energy that can be tapped into when they
need it most
it's like i always say you've got to put
something away for a rainy
i mean sunny day
[Music]
[Music]
hmm
[Applause]
there's me looking handsome and there's
you tuesday
looking crappy and do you have any
pictures of me in there too
i know i took one but i think i got my
thumb in it
ah but here's one you'll really like
crab tuesday took it with his underwater
camera right tuesday
that was the day you went to see boy
were you nervous
why not with my trusty shark boxer
or my octopus jet spray and of course
the world's biggest water cannon
now which one of these buttons brings it
back in
not that one
[Music]
how do you drive this thing henry i
don't have a clue
we're sinking fast do something
here okay look at this it's working
but would somebody get those fish off
the
oh henry you sure don't know about sea
life
dolphins aren't fish they're
warm-blooded mammals like dogs and cats
except without all the fleas these are
fish
some look for safety in numbers others
explore the coral reef alone
the ocean floor is where you find shrimp
and the octopus glides gracefully
amongst the rocks
[Music]
but perhaps the most amazing sea animal
of all is another mammal
a much bigger one
don't tell me the sea hamster
no henry it's the whale i knew that
actually i know a lot about whales oh
yeah
did you know that whales are air
breathers and have lungs like yours and
mine
no did you know that some can hold their
breath for
two hours no
then you probably didn't know that
whales are all descended from land
dwelling animals
you're right i didn't
so what is it that you do know about
whales henry
their name rhymes with tail good grief
you're gonna have to do better than that
[Music]
[Music]
hmm wow
[Applause]
henry henry it's time for your report on
the party
what now yes now
out of my way journal lizard coming
[Music]
through
tonight meerkat dads are pushovers
and dr freeze strikes birdland
[Music]
but now our top story
coming to you live from the amazing
animal reunion party
elephants pack your trunks and tortoises
pack your backs you're all invited to
party down with the world's favorite
lounge lizard
[Music]
this party is more fun than a barrel of
monkeys
that's cause we've got two barrels of
monkeys plus
pin the tail on the donkey spin the
hamster and
musical bears the guests are pouring in
from all over
cookies are coming from turkey ants from
france
and snails from whales proving that
fun-loving animals will travel any
distance for a party this while
so come on down make sure you bring a
present
more or later but first here now the
sports
fantasyland one lizards zero
rats it's not fair
animals have been coming in from all
over i was just kidding
you only left out one animal the monarch
butterfly
of course how can i forget henry the
monarch has one of the greatest
travelers tales of all
these orange and black butterflies all
spend their winter resting in this
mexican forest
[Music]
it looks crowded they should try
spreading out
oh they do that all right come the
springtime they all head north
flying to their ancestral summer homes
in the northern usa in canada
over a thousand miles away butterflies
can fly
that far not in one generation they
can't
and that's the most amazing thing of all
about the monarch
when they can't travel any further they
lay eggs and leave it to their offspring
to finish the trip
well that offspring's not flying
anywhere
give it time henry we all know what
happened to the very hungry caterpillar
i do she made a chrysalis and when she
came out
she was a beautiful butterfly
but incredible as it might seem without
any parents around to guide them
these second generation monarchs somehow
know exactly how to find their summer
feeding grounds
how do they do it nobody knows it might
take
six or seven generations to complete the
whole round-trip journey
but sure enough these monarchs return to
mexico
every autumn and start the cycle all
over again
excuse me but that's amazing
henry what's wrong you're looking a bit
blue
surprise that's an ice sculpture
by pablo pecanguin isn't it beautiful
and i thought you were just being chilly
i i mean silly
i haven't felt this cold since i went to
the north pole
you want to talk about chilling out i
think i set a new record on that trip
where it's cold i don't mind though
you know my motto
prepared precisely
pilot to tower prepare for landing
you want to ski here it's the perfect
spot
there are no rocks no trees and no hills
this is the polar ice cap underneath
this layer of ice do you know what
you'll find
switch off boosters what the ocean
henry are you all right oh fine
for an icicle
i thought you knew henry the oceans at
the north and south poles are covered in
a frozen layer
how would i know that they've got ice
all over them that's the polar ice cap
a massive sheet of ice in places as
thick as a two-story house
luckily for these wettle seals in the
antarctic it's got holes in it so they
can reach their food supply
if i were them i'd be looking for some
nice hot soup
the animals of the polar regions don't
mind the cold henry thanks in part to
their thick layer of fat
called blubber you're not joking
those walruses are so wobbly you can't
even see their legs
they don't have legs henry they have
flippers
well i'd flip out of there she's
breaking up
the ice is breaking up don't worry it's
perfectly normal for some eyes to melt
in the summer here in the arctic
even the ice you're sitting on the
walruses don't mind
in fact they're much better adapted for
swimming in the ocean
than they are for moving around on land
and with all that blubber
they sure don't have to worry about
sinking
and now ladies and gentle lizards it's
time for henry's amazing golden gecko
awards
[Music]
the winners of my all-time most amazing
globetrotting animals are
those six-legged crunchy-coated little
fellas who make up in sheer numbers what
they might lack in beauty
i'm talking about insects
there are millions and millions of
different insect species found
all over the world and they come in lots
of different designer styles
take this eight-eyed beastie that's a
spider henry not an insect
yes but spiders eat insects
insects fuel the food chain
[Applause]
and except for the frozen poles insects
have our planet pretty well covered
sometimes they can get a little bit out
of hand
this is a swarm of locusts munching its
way through every plant they can get
their jaws on
up in the dry north of africa
locusts are basically grasshoppers and
each can eat its weight and plant food
every day they're
tough and fast breeding so several
generations can build up quickly
to form a huge colony
swarms of 50 million have been known to
devour as much food in one day
as 500 people would eat in a year
people try to beat them but they just
keep coming back
and you know the same is true with me
they thought my singing days were over
but i've been so moved by my swarms of
fans from all over the world that i just
had to say
let's go around the world let's go
around the world
there are rainforest creatures
sunbirds dwell in the tropics
[Music]
animals can be creepy or be crawly
yeah just sing the song
now if you think you're alone nobody
else around
we'll take a look out the window or baby
down on the ground there
animals everywhere trying to get by like
the pink flamingo and the
and the mediterranean in china
henry you got down
[Music]
[Music]
now
