Welcome to Deema's Wild World of Snuggly Animals!

What kind of animal would you like to snuggle with?

- Well, I love elephants...

- Oh, I like elephants, too.

Here you go. One snuggly elephant.

- Hmm...

that elephant looks a little mixed up.

- What do you mean? - Well, these little ears...

these are kitty ears.

Elephants have big, floppy ears

that they use to keep cool in the hot sun.

- Of course they do.

We need your help to find the right

set of ears for this elephant.

Which of these ears can an elephant use to flop around?

- These! - Right here.

- Right!

- But there's something else that doesn't look right.

- Hmm...

which part of the elephant still looks wrong?

- [snorting]

fish: The nose!

- Yeah, that's a piggy nose.

Elephant noses are really long so they can pick stuff up.

- Which one of these does an elephant use to pick things up?

- This one! A trunk.

- Yeah, a trunk.

An elephant's nose is called a trunk.

- Here you go.

One stuffed elephant ready for some serious snuggling.

- We're agents

from the Elephant Bureau of Investigation.

- We help protect elephants.

- Once upon a time...

there were two agents whose job it was to protect

wild elephants all over the world.

- Attention, agents,

this is ELEPH.B.I headquarters.

Please come in. Over.

- Agent Goby, here. Go ahead.

- We have an elephant situation in India.

Somebody's been taking wild elephants.

We need you there right away.

- We're on our way.

- And so the agents flew to India,

which is a country in Asia.

- I don't see any elephants.

- Agent, look!

- [trumpeting]

- Somebody's taking that elephant!

- Come on!

Release the elephant immediately.

They're going into the jungle.

- I know that laugh. That's the Snuggler.

- The Snuggler?

- She loves to snuggle!

- But she shouldn't take elephants out

of their natural habitat.

We have to find her before somebody gets hurt.

- Agents, this is Headquarters.

There's been a report of elephants trumpeting

in a neighborhood in Ohio.

- Ohio? That's in the United States!

- There aren't wild elephants in the United States.

both: [gasp] The Snuggler!

But I only wanted to snuggle them.

They're so cute.

but you can't snuggle wild animals.

- And they don't belong here!

You have to help us return these elephants

back to the wild before someone gets hurt.

- Okay.

- Wait a minute!

These aren't all Asian elephants.

These elephants come from different places!

- I might've taken a few from Africa, too.

- Some of these elephants belong in Asia

and some belong in Africa.

We need your help to tell them apart.

- Asian elephants are smaller than African elephants.

- Which one is the Asian elephant in this herd?

fish: This one!

- Right, it has a small body.

It's smaller than the other elephants.

- Elephants from Asia also have floppy ears

that are smaller than African elephant ears.

- Which one is the Asian elephant in this herd?

fish: This one!

- That's right.

This elephant has the small floppy ears.

- Thanks for your help.

- Let's get these elephants back where they belong.

- And so the ELEPH.B.I returned the Asian elephants

to India and the African elephants back to Africa.

- The elephants are all back where they belong.
