Robert Irwin and Jimmy Play with Baby Black Bears

-Robert Irwin. How are you friend? -Oh, I'm beautiful bonza. Thank you. How are you? -I'm fine. Are you... what? Are you a beautiful bonza? -I am beautiful bonza, yes. -Now, you always teach me some new word. And what does that mean? -Yes, well, beaut bonza simply means incredible. -Just fantastic. -Well. -It's the best you can be. -The best you can be? -Beautiful bonza. -So I'm beautiful bonza. -Yeah. Exactly. -Yes me too. Yes me too! -Well done! -Thank you so much. -You're already getting the hang of it. -I'm aware of. -Yeah. -Last time we had you, man, oh man, it spread like wildfire on Facebook. 54 million people saw you in... -I know.

That was incredible. Thank you. -I mean... -Yes, it was a great honor to be on the program, but then one of the friends who was traveling with us at the time continued: "Look! It's up to 10 million! Look! It's 20 millions!" And it was just an amazing experience for me. -That's fun, right? -Thank you very much for welcoming me back. -Oh, no, yes, people love you. They love you. I love you. And you are smart. You know what you're talking about. - Thank you! -Which is great, but also, you look... Many viewers said how much you look like your dad. -Oh thank you very much. -And you really do. -You are a living image. -Aw thanks. -I would be very proud. -Thank you so much. -But your mom posted a photo of your dad when she was your age and you were.

Watch this. You will not believe. -Yes, he is a little wild. -I mean, that's... That's crazy. -Yeah. "I mean, do you... do you even realize how much you look like your dad or...?" -Yes, well, when... when my mother first showed me this, I thought it was me. -I-I can't tell them apart. -Yeah. -And I said: "It's me. What's the problem?" And until you look at Dad's shirt, you don't even realize that they are two different people. -You say: "I wouldn't use that." - Yeah. -"That's too psychedelic for me, man." Yes that's fine. So, you brought some animals and creatures here tonight. -If we have. -Let's get them out. -What did you bring?

What did you bring to scare me tonight? -Alright. So first we have Jane. -Is that a man? Oh no, he's fine, he's fine. -And Jane...-he's fine. Oh, no, no, no. -...he is a scorpion dictator. -See? No no no. -And Jane is absolutely incredible. And you are welcome to come closer. She is very calm. She is very good. She's actually quite friendly. -No, that is impossible. She is a scorpion. How could a scorpion be friendly? Well, she's curling her tail. That means something, right? -Yeah. Well, that tail actually contains the poison in it. It has quite a bit of poison.

And in fact they inject that poison to kill their prey. And isn't it just magnificent? -She is cuddling him. She is understanding it. She's like clenching her fist, ready to start. -Yes, but if you look closely, do you see those little hairs along its little tweezers? -Yeah. -And it's interesting because the larger the pincers, the less poisonous they are, but if they have smaller pincers, that means they contain a lot of venom. It's quite interesting, isn't it? -I don't know how you are so calm. I mean, it's real, right? That's really moving. I do not like that. -Yeah.

Oh yes, definitely. -That thing scares me. -Absolutely. -They are so cool. In reality, they are also nocturnal. -They hunt at night. -Oh perfect. -Yeah. -Oh, yes, yes, yes. I meet that thing at night. Get this out of here, please. -It's lovely. -Well. No problem. -Thank you. What a beautiful creature. -Yes, they are beautiful. Thank you. -Ah. Don't you have anything nice? -Well, this... this animal is a little cuter. So how about you come over to the desk? -Well. Well. -Alright. Well. So, let's take out our next animal. -I want you to sit down. -Well. -Alright. Ready? -Yeah.

These... these are little

black

bears

. -Oh Lord. -Aren't they beautiful? Oh, no... no... don't do that. -Do not do that. -Ah! Oh! Oh! -You can... You can let it... You can let it go. You can let her go. There you go. -Alright. Is this a bear? -I think he's just chewing... He's chewing your thumb a little. -Yes, I was definitely biting my thumb. -Absolutely. -They are very funny. So, these little

bears

are kind of hyperactive when they are little. They love to explore. -How old are they? -Well, these are actually only a couple of months old.

However, they will be a little bigger than this. Oh, sorry, sorry. I'm sorry. -Let's not make them angry. Yes Yes. -They are really special. These guys are actually omnivores. So they will eat meat and they will also eat vegetables. - -Do not chew the wire. -No, don't chew that. -Eat...? No. They are omnivores, so they eat both vegetables and meat as well. -Yes, yes, they do. They love flowers, little berries and things like that. -No, don't do it... -It's very cute. What size will they be? -Well, this one could actually weigh up to about 300 pounds. So they can become quite large. -Please remember me, okay?

Please. Yes. When you're older. Oh, that's fantastic. -Oh, look at this one climbing on my back. -They are really cute. Come here. What's that one called? -This is... This is D-9. -He sounds like a rapper. -D-9? If it does. -D-9. Hello, D-9. -Yeah. -Alright. And what is this boy's name? -And, then, this one here... No, don't chew Jimmy. -Everything's fine. Alright. -The only thing he wants to do is chew you. -Oooh. -And this is Flo. Flo is really cute. She has a great name. Oh, aren't they beautiful? -That was the closest I got to a bear.

This is great. Alright. I'm going to... Yes, I want to... -So, do you want to...? I survived this. So I'm happy about this. -Okay, okay, okay. I think it's time for them to go. -Bye. Thank you. -What cute bears. -Have fun. Goodbye, D-9. -Bye bye! Thank you. -Phew! -Aren't they funny? -That was a big step for me. If they are cute. -They are very funny. -Alright. I love cute animals. -Yes, well, next, we... we... We have another cute animal for you. -Well ok. -And they have very cute names too. -These are Lulu and Fluffy. -Fluffy and Lulu, good. -Now, the...

I know what you're thinking. They are not snakes. Don't worry. They're... they're all good. They are actually legless lizards. So, these legless lizards... -Those aren't Lulu and Fluffy at all. -Yes, Lulu and Fluffy. -I think it's D-9. -Do you want to hug Fluffy? -Oh my God. -You can hug him. He loves to be held. -I really don't want to keep these things. -There you go. Good job! -Oh my God! What are these things? They're not... they're snakes. -No, they are legless lizards. And you can see the difference... -I'm an idiot. -You can tell him... Wow. You can tell the difference. -Legless lizards?

This one doesn't move. -You can see those little ears there. In fact it has ears. Snakes don't have ears. That's one of the main reasons: how you can really tell the difference. They are really special. -He...Why...he feels like he's going to attack or something. Why is he staring at me? -He will not attack. Everything is alright. I think he's just trying to figure out what you're doing. Alright. You'll be fine. -What... What should I be doing? -Oh. -What... I mean, I'm holding it. -Stay still. He's actually pretty calm. -Well, I... -And you'll be fine. -We are both rigid as a board.

We're kind of scared right now. Devils? What's happening is... - Do you want me to get it off your back? -Yeah! I want you to take it away from me. -There you go. -God, that was awkward. Don't make me do that. Don't make me do it again. -They're so cool, aren't they? -No, these are the creepiest things. -They are very funny. Actually... -Where do they live? -They... These live... -In the water. They surprise you at the pool. -No, no, they live in Europe. These are the European legless lizards. -Oh good. -And they can grow quite a bit.

They can reach up to about 3 feet long. -Oh God! -And they will eat little insects and little eggs and things like that. -Little insects? Yes. -Yes, they are like a lizard, but obviously they don't have legs. -This is great. -Alright. -I had my good experience with these guys. -Awesome. -Goodbye, Hairy. Fluffy and Lulu. -Yes, Fluffy and Lulu. Thank you. -Fluffy and Lulu. -Yes, they are very special. -Okay, I'm already going crazy. This is... This is like a stress test for me. Yes that's fine. -So, we have another special animal on the way. -Well. -This... Oh! Actually, this is a binturong.

This is Orville and he is very cute. Now come on your hands and knees, like this, and then let them smell your head, because the way... ...the way other things are presented to them... ...they smell your head. Just... Just lower your head like this. -This is now... This is crazy. -This is how they recognize who you are. -For me this is like skydiving, for me. -Everything is alright. -No... I don't like this. Oh no! -You'll be fine. -Oh no. Oh no. Hello Orville. -Hello, do you want to smell Jimmy's head? -Orville? Everything is alright? -Wonderful. He loves you. -Does he do it?

I mean... I... -He loves you. -This toupee could be one of Orville's family. -Now I'm going to give you a grape. -Well. -He loves grapes. -Oh, it's for Orville. -Yes, no, not for you. -It's like I'm on my hands and knees and he's giving me grapes. This animal is from Brooklyn, New York; He is a talk show host. -Look, there you go. Jimmy has a grape for you. -Here we go. Orville. -There you go. -Hello Orville. Over here, friend, look. Hello. -Oh great. -Hi, friend. -Well done. -So you eat grapes? Where do you hang out? -He does.

This one is actually from Southeast Asia. And they love those rainforest areas, but what I like most about this... what I like most about them is that they smell like popcorn. -It's amazing. -They do? -So if you smell it, it actually smells like popcorn. -Whisper. He whispers to me, "Please don't tell anyone I smell like popcorn." He... smells... Do you want another grape? -He smells like... -There you go. -Yes, he smells like burnt popcorn or fried food or something like that. Yes, like Fritos, exactly. -Fried, yes. -Yes well done. -And he... now... you... where...? Is it hiding in the ground?

Does he climb trees? -No, it's in the trees. And you see this queue there. That's called a prehensile tail. So that acts as another limb that helps you climb. It's really amazing. -Yes, I was going to say... it looked like a... prehensile tail. -Yes, you would have been right, yes. -I was going to guess that. -Well, thank you Orville. -Goodbye, Orville. -Thank you so much. -What a nice name Orville, yes. -Goodbye, Orville. -Bye, do you know... how to get off? -See you later. Yes, there we go. -I love it. -Oh. Awesome. -Alright. -Very well, then... for the next animal, we have a very special bird from the National Aviary. -Well. -And I have invited three of The Roots to come down to give us a hand.

So how about we go down here? -Yes, we will head here. -We... We have Kathy here too. -Oh, I want to mention australiazoo.com. There's a thing called "Crikey Club" that you're starting. It's a channel. -Yes, exactly. It is. -And what do you see when you enter that channel and enter that website? -Well, you can see some really amazing things, all behind the scenes at the Australia Zoo. You can see some of the crazy antics we get up to. -Yeah. -Some of the images: never before seen images of my father. It's definitely a really fun channel. -And is it Crikey, C-r-i-k-e-y? -Yes, "Crikey", so... -Crikey.

Yes. -Then go to australiazoo.com and you can check it out. -It's fine. Very good, good. Now what do we have here? -Now, this... I'll do it... I'm going to do this. -Okay, then... -I've never seen this bird before. Now, where does this bird come from? -Oh, wow. So, this... -Where did that happen...? How did that happen? That was amazing. - Isn't this amazing? So, this is actually a green aracari. And aracaris are a species of toucan. So aren't they amazing? -Oh man. -They live in South America. -Beautiful. -They are one of the smallest toucan species.

They are very curious. -Yeah. -But they are incredible at picking fruits from trees. And I'll show that in a second. So could you hold out your hand for a second? -Do you have Froot Loops in Australia? -Ready? We do, yes. -You do? -Check it out! Oh! You are doing it very well. Isn't it amazing? That's great. - -Mark knows it. -Oh! -Mark just summoned him. -Well. I have one more surprise for you. Can we quickly get here to the audience? -Of course we can. -Okay let's go. -It's okay. So how are you? Nice to meet you.

How are you? -Good. -I'm going to give you some food. If you want to reach out... Beatrice will fly to you. Well. Here she comes. Oh well done! Whoa, whoa! -You got nervous. You got ner... You should have seen your face. Wait until you see the re

play

. Wow. Beatriz, you are very intelligent. You are beautiful. Oh hello. You are beautiful. -Good job. -That's Robert Irwin, everyone. Leave it for this guy. Thank you very much for coming. -Thank you so much. -I really appreciate it.
