[What is going on here?!

Let's find out!]

"¡Hola!

I'm Diego!"

"I'm an animal rescuer!"

"This is my sister,

Alicia!" (What's that big machine?)

"¡Hola!" she said.

She explains that she and Diego built this catching machine

so they can

practice their

super catch.

(That's SO COOL!)

"Animal rescuers sometimes

have to save animals

by

catching them when they fall," he explains.

(Hey! We've seen that before, like when he caught Baby Jaguar a couple times!)

He asks, "Will YOU help me practice my

super catch?"

Do YOU want to join in?

"GREAT!"

Now watch this!

It goes

around and around,

to the left and to the right,

(SLAM!)

"Look! A coconut!"

"Put your hands into the air

to catch it!"

CATCH IT!!!

Nice jump!

(That's one!)

ANOTHER coconut!

"CATCH IT!!!"

(That's two!)

ANOTHER COCONUT!

CATCH IT!

(That's three!)

"NOW watch me

as I catch SUPER FAST!"

Activating

Superfast Mode!

Catch them, Diego!

WOW!

"YAY! You helped me practice

my super catch!"

"¡GRACIAS!"

Suddenly he heard a bird noise.

"HELP! HEEEELP!!!!!" yelled the bird.

"HEY! That sounds like an animal in trouble!"

"Let's go see what animal needs our help!"

Here's the Science Deck!

Say, "Click!"

She turned on! Let's find out what animal is in trouble!

Click is ready for work! "Hi! I'm Click the Camera!" she says. "Diego and Alicia need to find the animal in trouble!"

The animal in trouble sounds like this:

(Chirp, chirp!)

Let's ZOOM through the forest! And listen for the animal that goes…

"CHIRP! CHIRP!"

(horse whinnying)

Does this sound like the animal in trouble?

No! What animal is that?  A horse, right!

Let's keep looking!

Here is our next animal.

(Maned wolf howling)

Does this sound like the animal in trouble?
No! It's a maned wolf!

We're looking for the animal that says, "chirp chirp".

How about this one?

"CHIRP! CHIRP!"

Does THIS sound like the animal in trouble?

Yes, it does! That's a rhea. Rheas are BIG birds! To take a picture of it, say, "CLICK!"

She got it!

Now you tell Diego, you found a rhea.

"What did you find?" he asked.

You saw it! Tell him!

"A rhea?"

(Yes?)

"Rheas are REALLY big birds that

live in the grasslands," Alicia explains. (We learned that from Click like a minute ago.)

"To find out WHY the rhea is in trouble,

we've got to see more of the picture."

(You know what we gotta do, right?)

"We can do that

if Click ZOOMS out!"

Say, "ZOOM!" they both said.

Say it!

Well, THIS is bad news!

"You can't fly,

YOU CAN'T FLY!" Click saw the Cuckoo Birds teasing Rhea for being flightless.

Oh no! The coo-coo birds don't see

that the rhea

is getting closer to the edge of the cliff!

If he gets any closer,

he'll fall off!

"You've GOT to get to the grasslands

QUICK, Diego!

So you can rescue the rhea!"

"RIGHT, Alicia!"

"Will YOU help me rescue the Rhea

before he falls?"

What do you think?

Will you?

You WILL?!

"GREAT!

¡AL RESCATE,

AMIGOS!"

Clap your hands with me!

Clap, clap,

clap!

Clap, clap, clap!

Clap, clap, clap!

CLAP, CLAP, CLAP!

"You can't fly,

you can't fly!" Diego heard the Cuckoo Birds teasing Rhea.

"You can't fly,

you can't fly!" said the Cuckoo Birds still teasing Rhea before he falls off the cliff.

"That's okay,

you're right."

"What good

is a bird

who can't fly?"

(sobbing)

"Wow!"

"Long legs!"

"I guess I CAN run pretty fast!" said Rhea.

"CUCKOO, CUCKOO!!!"

The cuckoos heard their baby brothers, but they sound so far away!

"CUCKOO, CUCKOO!!!"

"Gracias, Rhea."

"We'll catch up to you as SOON as we can!"

"Will YOU

help us rescue

the Baby Cuckoos?"

Will you?

You will?!

YAY!

"¡Gracias!"

To tell Rhea to

run, we sing

the Spanish word

"corre".

Can

YOU

sing "corre"?

Sing,...
(song starts)

Corre,

Corre

Corre,

Corre

Run,

run

as fast as you can

You've got to sing

"corre",

sing it

again

SING!

Corre,

Corre

Corre,

Corre

Corre,

Corre

Corre,

Corre

¡EXCELENTE!

(song ends)

They heard something!

(puma growling)

What was that?!

(puma growling)

Uh-oh!

That sounds like a puma!
(A puma?! YIKES!)

(Rheas are AFRAID of pumas!)

"Sobrinito (little nephew),

you have to protect our nests from the puma!" one of Rhea's uncles said.

"We can't get to the other side of the river in time!"

"You've got to hide our eggs!" said another uncle.

"Don't worry, tíos!" Rhea said to his uncles.

"Diego, I have to hide the eggs from the puma!" told Rhea to him.

The pumas didn't see the eggs and ran away!

Yay!

You helped Rhea protect the rhea eggs!

Now the eggs are all safe and sound!

"¡Gracias!"

(chirping)

"¡Gracias!"

"Thanks for saving our eggs!"

"¡De nada,

you're welcome!

(beeping)

"Hey!

That's my video watch!"

Let's see who's calling...

IT'S ALICIA!

Let's go, amigos!

Let's go save the Baby Cuckoos!

Good luck!

¡Buena suerte!

Uh-oh!

There are snakes on those rocks!

And they're sleeping!

You have to stand up to tiptoe!

Stand up, please! STAND UP!

Stand up and get ready to tiptoe!

Tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe past the Sleeping Snakes

Tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe past the Sleeping Snakes

Up on your toes, that's how we go, let's all make sure that they don't wake

Tiptoe, tiptoe past the Sleeping Snakes!

"We finally made it!

That windy wind was SO STRONG!"

"You saved our baby brothers!"

"You're a

SUPER COOL bird!"

YAY, RHEA!

Cheer with us!

RHEA!

RHEA!

RHEA!

Let's do the

rhea dance

to celebrate!

¡MISIÓN

CUMPLIDA!

RESCUE

COMPLETE!

YOU are a

GREAT animal

rescuer, too!

Let's Review!

This is what a rhea looks like in real life

Do rheas live in the grasslands?

Do rheas live in the snow?

Can rheas run?

Can rheas swim?

Do rheas turn into bushes?

Do rheas turn into tables?

Do rheas have long necks?

Do rheas have short necks?
