'cause me and the poodle are going out Friday night,
and I got to have my moves down, Ooh!
because I am not a great dancer.
Let me show you a couple of my moves.
No, thanks. No, no, no, no!
We'll give him one.
One. Just one.
Okay, I just started it, so, let's...
You know, I just want your initial reaction to it.
Just do it, Ruff.
ALL: Oh! Whoa!y?
Wait, wait, wait. That was awesome.
Wait, I grab the leg.
Oh!
Go, Brian. Go. It's your birthday.
Work it out.
Oh, wow.
Yes.
Go to sleep. Go to sleep.
All right, I think we have danced ourselves into a...
( all voicing assent )
Are we ready for some challenges, guys?
ALL: Yeah!
Challenge number one-- get hip.
are in the mailbox.
Go, fish!
Good luck! Good luck!
Now, while Anna's learning
to cook on the dance floor,
three of you will be learning to cook in a kitchen.
Now, this is Jen, head chef of a very popular eatery.
You'll be preparing food with her today
for quite a crowd.
And now, all the details,
BOTH: Yes.
For the four kids out at the challenges,
up to 100 points are at stake at the Triumph Tally.
So now let's catch up with Anna.
A kid in the city.
Anna. Hello.
Wyatt. Pleased to meet you.
Ruff told me... Okay.
that you are discovering today,
that you are going to discover your inner hip-hop.
It is music.
Well, here we are at our first
example of hip-hop.
That's pretty cool.
Okay, this is graffiti.
Doesn't that look wild? It's pretty cool.
Well, actually, this is called
Wild Style.
I don't know what it says.
Yeah, I don't, either.
See how the letters kind of look like they're coming out at you?
All right, now it's time to check in
with our other challenge team.
Now, I sent these guys out to cook for a pretty big crowd.
I wonder where this kitchen is.
WOMAN: Hi, guys.
KIDS: Hello.
Welcome to my kitchen. Hi.
I heard you guys are going to be helping me out today.
If you'll hold on a second, I'll get the first ingredient.
Could you hold that for me for a second?
Oh, worms, gross. Ew!
That's right, kids.
z,cM a moon bear, saki monkey,@zUU;
tree kangaroo and a kookaburra.
What is the name for an animal that eats plants?
KHALIL: Herbivore.
JEN: Very good. Does anyone know mostly meat?
KIDS: Carnivore.
JEN: And both?
KIDS: Omnivore.
JEN: Omnivore. Very good.
RUFF: So, there are five meals to prepare.
Some meals are for herbivores,
RUFF: some are for carnivores, and some are for omnivores.
But which meals go to which animals?
a Just hold your hand out like this
and I'll put it in. I'm not...
Just for five seconds. Just five seconds.
JEN: Yay, good job!
RUFF: Recipe number two looks like a bunch of fruits and veggies.
JEN: Apple and celery.
Add that in.
Since it's larger items,
yocan use a bigger bucket.
RUFF: Recipe three is nine pounds of produce
and six pounds of omn.
JULIA: That one looks weird.
KHALIL: I got him.
KHALIL: The crickets are running away from me.
JEN: We want all six in there.
KHALIL: Hurry up, hurry up! Open it!
Open it!
That was torture.
JEN: This is our meat freezer.
RUFF: And the last recipe is three mice.
JEN: Can you grab one of those trays?
No.
You pick it up yourself.
NOAH: It's a frozen mouse.
RUFF: Well, how are they going to do that? Ua=
JEN: When you go out and look at the animals,
make sure you really pay attention to their eyes,
their claws and their teeth.
Teeth for what?
NOAH: Ripping the meat apart.
JEN: And what would that be? Carnivore.
JEN: Carnivores may also have eyes that face forward.
This will help them when hunting their prey.
An herbivore would have their eyes on the side,
so they can look for predators that may be coming to get them.
RUFF: Hey, I like that beat boxing.
( mouthing rhythmic beats )
Woof, woof! Yeah!
And this is like an authentic...
hip-hop music store.
RUFF: And this is RRusty!
Guess what we're going to do?
You're going to learn how to scratch.
ANNA: Oh, awesome!
RUFF: Ah, I think she likes it.
Okay, two turntables. Yup.
We're going to make it easy for you, too.
RUSTY: One...
All right, hold on. Ready?
One, two, three, four.
Just practice that.
BOTH: One, two, three, four.
( scratching )
There you go.
Ooh!
One, two, three, four.
( scratching )
There you go!
Whoo!
( applause and laughter )
RUFF: That's good scratching!
And this is coming from someone
See you later, Rusty. Bye!
You guys, come on.
RUFF: Back to the zoo crew.
NOAH: Hey, guys, come on.
Guys, look over here.
Its eyes are at the front of his head.
KHALIL: It has long fingers.
JULIA: We can't see its teeth, though.
NOAH: I'm guessing it's either, like,
a carnivore or an omnivore,
because of its eyes. Is this a skink?
JEN: Yeah, he's the northern blue tongue skink.
No, but he has a blue tongue
to make himself look scary,
JULIA: I think that she's definitely a herbivore.
KHALIL: Laughing kookaburra.
His beak, it has like a small hook on it, so...
JULIA: It looks like a sharp beak.
NOAH: I would say he's probably a carnivore.
KHALIL: So what do you think he might eat?
I think either the crickets or the mice.
So what's next?
JULIA: The moon bear.
It has eyes on the front of its head...
RUFF: I don't care where his eyes are, I'm staying away.
Sharp teeth and claws...
Ruff, check out these claws,
d!3&L>dsOmg67!Hó÷@N?N?úú
Whoa, whoa, whoa, Ruff.
Calm down there, buddy.
That's a scary cat.
RUFF: Ha-- big cats don't intimidate me.
Provided they're, uh, you know, in a cage.
Hey, it's half-time here, guys.
You comfy? I'm comfy.
How do you think the guys are doing
so far in the challenge?
Still pretty good.
Not too shabby, huh?
And noit is time...
for my favorite part.
The Half-Time Trivia Quiz!

RUFF: Very nice.
True or false:
False.
RUFF: Correct.
All right...
Oh!
We are out of time.
But, hey, you did great-- 40 points, that's awesome.
You passed on one, and that was question number six which was:
So now...
let's go to the second part of our show.
So how'd you do at the challenge?
You think you know what animals eat what diet?
KIDS: Maybe, yeah.
Yeah. Okay, let's hear it.
The skink was the omnivore
and we think it ate the crickets.
JEN: That was the correct diet for the skink.
A-plus, you got one right. Woo!
Moon bear.
We think it was an omnivore.
So we think it was the nine pounds of fruits.
KHALIL: And the six pounds of omnivore biscuits.
JEN: Very good!
NOAH: And the Kookaburra, large claws,
so it's UeQKú33: oúgúW JEN: Excellent job!
This is how I discovered my inner hip-hop,
the school dance. Okay.
Now, what I'm going to do is do some break dancing.
I want you to try to do what I do.
( music plays )
RUFF: Wow, right on his head!
( music plays )
Oh, she's doing some kind of floppy thing.
All right, that's pretty good!

Dee. Do. Dee. Dah. Dee. Da. Dee. Da.
Yes!
RUFF: She's got it!
That was it! That was it! Great!
JEN: We're not just giving the giraffe this bucket.
We try to make it a little more challenging for them
by putting up little puzzles that Christine has made.
X?ñoñoño?7UepcsúçXúGXQjG#ñ Here she comes.
NOAH: He wraps his mouth around it
and then he sticks his tongue into it.
CHRISTINE: I make them work for their food
so they have a better time.
Guys, call.
( phone ringing )
Hello.
RUFF: Hey, guys, it's Ruff.
I have another challenge for you.
I need you to create your own enrichment device
for the moon bears.
Figure out a way to feed them
that's both satisfying and challenging.
So head on back to the kitchen and get going.

RUFF: Now the group rehearsal with Anna
for tonight's show.
♪ Bring them out, bring them out ♪ Good!
úoG?zpwUEUñpákú♪áI You guys are going to come up with an idea
to kind of stimulate behaviors
that the moon bears would do naturally in the wild.
Think about what moon bears do,
how they look for their food,
and here's the equipment that you can use.
They were good climbers; they can get up to high places.
RUFF: Now remember, the bear diet was the nine pounds of produce
and the six pounds of omnivore biscuit.
The kids can also use peanut butter and raisins
then you cover it up and put raisins on it.
Okay.
NOAH: See, these are the coconuts.
And we added the peanut butter,
we added the biscuits and the raisins.
We're going to have them floating in the water,
so he'll have to go into the water
and go swimming to get them. Excellent idea.
RUFF: What, you're not going in there, are you?
Oh, my goodness, I can't look!
I don't mind being inside a bear exhibit
when the bear's not in it.
RUFF: Oh, the bears aren't in.
Oh, well, of course.
