[Music] hi K Vision kids it's Miss Penny today we are going on a zoo Adventure we are going to meet and learn about some very special animals from their zookeepers let's go today we're going to go in and we're going to visit our alabra tortoises they're actually large land tortoises from Africa [Music] this is Shelly Shelly loves Roma so that's petunia is uh is coming up to say hi behind you there hi [Music] petunia what's the difference between Turtles and tortoises oh that's a great question so the difference between a tortoise and a turtle is that a tortoise is usually on land and a turtle is usually in the water now this big guy right here his name is notto no and he's our big guy I think he thinks I'm a carrot I think he thinks you're a carrot too I know how old do they get so these guys can get up to 200 years old 200 yeah let's take a very close look at the tortoises because they have some interesting shapes that I think that we could draw a tortoise es have a lot of different shapes on them when you look really closely uh like their tongue has a three-sided shape so that's a triangle uh on their arms and legs the their skin has Circle shapes on it their their shell is in the shape of a dome and their head is kind of the shape of an oval so you know we want people to go out and explore Wilderness but you can learn so much just by paying really close attention and examining the world around you [Music] this is Wilbur uh and she is our two-toed sloth they love hanging from the trees just like this and that's how they live their life upside down in the trees and what kind of food do they eat so these guys are herbivores so they really like fresh fruits and vegetables so she likes lettuce she likes cauliflower like this she likes apples um she likes sweet potatoes so she gets a wide variety of food in her diet she eats nice and slowly everything is slow with a [Music] sloth well this is Lacy Lacy is Wilbur's zoologist which means that's the person that cares for Wilbur every single day so she's going to help you give Wilbur a nice healthy treat good job thank you how is she eating is she eating fast or slow she's eating slow what is he eating he's eating an apple and apple is healthy food what kind of healthy food do you eat oranges you eat oranges do you think Wilbur likes oranges does Wilbur like oranges she love strawberries oh I like

kind of exploring around right now he's our African crested porcupine you're going to notice that he's got a lot of quills on his back um and those quills would help protect him in the wild do they sleep at day at night do they have a routine that they follow yeah so routines are important for all of our animals um it helps keep them healthy helps keep them nice and relaxed and so he's actually trained to go see the doctor and going to the doctor for him is really [Music] fun and this is one of our zoologist cie Call's been working with Priscilla for many many years so Priscilla and I are
