WOMAN: Right now,
with lack of information,

so I'm not telling him
to do anything, right?

He's trying to figure
out how to get more treats.

He's attacking
the cameraman's shoe.

It's working for him, right?

I mean, he's doing a great job,

and he's pretty cute
while he's doing it.

He's like, "I like
these orange laces."

Go ahead, Logan.

Oh, are you outta here?
Come back. Come here!

(distant laughter)

He's done.

He's got to fix
his makeup really quick.

NARRATOR: At the
Harambe Wildlife Reserve,

it's breakfast time
for the African elephants.

ADRIANA: So, who
do we have coming up?

This is Miss Nadirah right here.

Nadirah's 16 years old.

And after her, Luna.
They're sisters.

Luna is very fast,
very high energy.

She gets very excitable,
and she's very, very smart.

Their mom is Donna,
and she's not out today.

Coming up is Vasha and Kianga,
which are mother and daughter.

Vasha is in her mid-to-late 30s,

and Kianga is 17 years old.

(grumbling)

Elephants are
very social animals.

They actually live
in matriarchal societies.

When the females are born,
they stay with their moms

and sisters and aunts
and grandmas forever.

So, currently, we do
not have a matriarch.

No one has taken
that role just yet.

The two moms, Vasha and Donna,

they just happen
to like their own space.

However, Kianga, Nadirah,
and Luna, they get along great.

They all formed
a very special bond.

So, although they're not
all biologically sisters,

they are soul sisters,
especially Kianga and Luna.

They seem to have a very
interesting relationship.

You see them together a lot,

and sometimes
they're sharing food

and they're playing together,

and sometimes Luna,
being younger,

will probably pester
Kianga a little too much.

(trumpets)

They're like kids that weigh

anywhere between
6,000 to 10,000 pounds,

so there's gonna be
a little bit of drama

between these girls
from time to time.

(trumpets)

Although Luna's very social,
she's also pretty independent.

NARRATOR: As the
morning heats up,

Luna wants some alone time.

ADRIANA: Luna is by herself.

She's got the right idea,
eating breakfast in the shade.

NARRATOR: But
Kianga wants her BFF.

ADRIANA: Kianga is like,
"Let me, let me go see

what she's doing
and what she's eating.

Maybe she's got something
that I haven't found yet."

And Vasha is like, "Okay,
but I don't want to be alone.

I'm gonna go come
follow you guys and hang out

so we can all eat together."

A little later today
when it starts to get hotter,

you can pretty much guarantee
the ladies are gonna go

straight to the pool,
and they're gonna have

a nice little pool party,
and it's gonna be very relaxed.

NARRATOR: But later on,
as the sun gets higher,

Luna goes
backstage with her mom,

leaving Kianga
without her best buddy.

(trumpeting)

ADRIANA: Kianga's
definitely a little worked up.

(trumpeting)

NARRATOR: Kianga's
pool party for one

gets a lot of attention.

(trumpets)

MICHELLE: She's
acting like a teenager,

throwing a little
bit of a hissy fit.

KEEPER: It's a cute hissy fit.

MICHELLE: Right?

KEEPER: She's outta here.

(trumpets)

(whistles)

(grunting)

NARRATOR: At Disney's
Animal Kingdom Theme Park,

romance is in the air

and new life is
always on the way.

Backstage at
the Avian Research Center,

away from the
bustle of the park,

crested couas, Amy and James,
are trying to start a family.

MEGAN: I'm just placing
some bugs into the felt toy,

and I'm gonna
get 'em all in here.

And then we'll put
this one right over here.

They are inseparable.

They're very
sweet to each other,

they feed each other,

and they don't like
other birds sneaking in

and trying to get
in their little love area.

I want them to
come off of their nest

because the behaviors
that I'm seeing indicate

that there's an egg, so I
really want to check it out.

NARRATOR: In their
native Madagascar,

the coua's habitat
is threatened,

so Amy and James are part
of a special breeding program

that aims to keep a healthy
population in human care.

MEGAN: They totally
look like bodybuilders,

just pumping up,

and they love
to sunbathe their backs.

NARRATOR: They're
not showing off.

These sun worshippers
use solar power

to regulate
their body temperature.

MEGAN: My favorite
thing about them is just

the coloration of their eyes.

That is actually their skin,
it's not their feathers,

and it's just like
if you're going out

for a night on the town
and you put on your eye shadow.

It's just an adornment on them.

(whistling)

NARRATOR: Finally,
Megan gets a chance to see

if the magic happened.

MEGAN: It's
always that moment of

"Is there something in there?"

(whistles)

Yay, there's an egg!

They will break
under certain conditions,

if they get tossed
around in the nest,

the adults sit too hard
on them, they fall out.

I'm going to remove the egg
from the nest for safekeeping

in one of our incubators.

NARRATOR: If all goes to plan,

in 12 days, there will be
a new baby coua in the world.

MEGAN: I'm really hoping we
can get some babies from them.

NARRATOR: The
fragile crested coua egg

is protected
by a special incubator,

controlling the
temperature and humidity.

GLORIELI: The first thing we're
going to do is take the weight.

Five.

9.85.

NARRATOR:
Surrogate mom Glorieli

keeps a close eye
on its development.

This chick is
almost ready to hatch.

GLORIELI: I'm going to turn
the lights off so we actually

can get a visual
of the embryo in the egg.

I'm so excited.

They will actually
start pecking at the shell,

very softly at first.

But they keep
pecking at the same area,

and then you will see the hole.

And, surprise, there is
an internal pip right there.

NARRATOR: This weakened area,
known as the pip, will be

the first to crack
when the baby hatches.

GLORIELI: Okay.

So that's good news.

We are getting
really close to hatch now.

So, within the next 12 hours,

it will probably
peck at the shell

and start opening it
from the inside to come out.

It's very exciting.

(laughs)

NARRATOR: At The Seas
with Nemo & Friends at Epcot

live over 90 aquatic species,
including these gentle giants,

West Indian manatees,
Lou and Lil Joe.

DR. JEN: I love
manatees so much.

I always would say that
if I could choose one species,

I would totally be
a manatee veterinarian

and just work on
manatees all day long.

Their little faces,
you just want to squish them.

Cute is just the best
word to describe a manatee.

NARRATOR: While
Lou and Lil Joe cause a splash,

backstage,

Doctor Jen attends a
rescued wild manatee.

DR. JEN: We have three
young females down here

that are undergoing
rehab here at Disney.

That feisty little lady
over there, her name is Jolo.

Like Yolo but with a J.

So, she's very spicy.

We like her a lot.

Jolo was rescued
near Titusville, Florida,

by one of our
conservation partners.

They transported
her here to Disney

so that we could provide
her with more long-term care.

She's really thin, and she
has these respiratory signs

that are concerning me.

What the trainers have
expressed is that occasionally

they'll hear
kind of a little bit

of a congested breathing pattern

and they may see some
mucus on the water surface

when they're watching her swim.

NARRATOR: As an
air-breathing mammal,

Jolo can be
examined out of water.

DR. JEN: This area is really
great for rehab manatees.

We can drain the
pool really quickly

to access them
for their medical exams

and keep a really close eye
on them when we feed them

to make sure
they're eating well.

Would you mind just
hosing her off a little bit,

just around the face?

NARRATOR: Like all manatees,

Jolo only breathes
through her nose,

so Doctor Jen
takes a close look.

DR. JEN: Jolo,
your face, sweet girl.

Just see some nasal discharge,
so we're gonna sample that.

She has been
a little extra mucus-y.

(loud breath)

KEEPER: Do you hear that breath?

DR. JEN: Yeah, it's
a little mucus-y, huh?

Her breathing sounds
really congested.

It's kind of
these exaggerated breaths.

They sound kind of wet.

(snorts)

Oh, wow.

Yeah, that's
definitely concerning.

We need to figure
out what's going on.

DR. JEN: That
come out of her nose?

KEEPER: Yes.

DR. JEN: She did sneeze on us.

But thankfully that she did.

We were able to
see some of the mucus

from deeper in the
respiratory tract,

the yellowish stuff,

which could be a concern.

Scoop it up there, Charlene.

KEEPER: Are you
going for a second one?

DR. JEN: We're just
gonna get this stuff

that's on the surface.

There we go.

Did you get a
decent amount in there?

KEEPER: We did.

DR. JEN: My biggest
worry is a pneumonia.

It makes it really
hard for them to breathe,

which means they
can't get as much oxygen

to the rest of their
body that they need.

So, it's concerning
for her long term.

NARRATOR: When rescued, Jolo
weighed less than 600 pounds,

almost 300 pounds short
of her healthy weight.

DR. JEN: There is a major
crisis in the wild right now,

and this is being
caused by runoff

from urban coastal development
killing off the sea grasses,

which is a big
problem for manatees

because they don't
have anything to eat.

What's happening is we're seeing

a lot of these young
animals essentially starving.

The ultimate goal is to get Jolo

back out to the
wild where she belongs,

but first we need to get her
healthy and put weight on her.

I'm a little
concerned about her.

NARRATOR: Backstage,
late at night,

while crews ready
the park for guests...

(cracking)

There's another important
opening taking place.

GLORIELI: All right, let's see

if my little coua hatched.

(gasps)

Hey, there! Hi!

Oh, we are so active!

Oh, my goodness.

You're ready to eat, aren't ya?

So hungry.

You look so good.

Most people would say, "That
thing is absolutely hideous."

They have no feathers.

Their skin is really wrinkly.

But they're cute.

NARRATOR: After all, every mom
thinks their baby is beautiful.

GLORIELI: They have
a lot of personality.

They don't open their eyes
right away but, you know,

they move around quite a bit

for such a bird that
naked and cannot see.

Hey, Christine.

I got the chick that
just hatch overnight.

So, hatch weight is 8.52.

CHRISTINE: Great.

GLORIELI: And it's very hungry.

CHRISTINE: Aw!
We'll get him fed.

Oh, he's so cute.

He looks really good.

GLORIELI: Yeah, it does, yeah.

Good weight.

CHRISTINE: So, right now,
we're gonna put him down here,

and we're gonna get
some food into him.

He eats chopped up mice,

so we'll just tap his bill,
and if he wants his food,

he'll open his mouth for us.

He's got these
little dots in his mouth,

and that's where his parents aim
to put that food right in there.

NARRATOR: And they keep
Christine on target, too.

Hand-feeding the chick
gives him the best chance

of surviving his
perilous first two weeks.

CHRISTINE: It's a lot of work.

We start out feeding
them every two hours.

We're basically
the mama bird all the time.

NARRATOR: The little
bird needs one more thing

from his surrogate parents.

CHRISTINE: So, I want
to name him after Kevin

in the Disney movie Up.

The crested coua
just reminds me of Kevin

because of the
coloration of their feathers

when they're adults.

NARRATOR: For now,
little Kevin just wants a nap.

CHRISTINE: And let him rest

until we feed him
again in about two hours.

♪ ♪

(trumpets)

ERIN: Hi!

All right.

What happened outside?

What got you
so riled up out there?

NARRATOR: After
her tantrum outside,

a calmer Kianga comes
inside for a little pampering.

DANNY: Hello, you.
Are you ready?

ERIN: Good for a hose?

DANNY: You're good.

Good girl.

ERIN: We are gonna hose her off,

get all the dirt off,
and take a look at her.

DANNY: Kianga, stretch.

Good girl.

ERIN: She's gonna
get a scrub bath today,

so she's gonna have
a little Kianga spa treatment.

DANNY: Kianga, you're,
oh, good girl.

(trumpets)

Very nice.

So, Erin, I hear
something happened

out in the yard
with Kianga today.

ERIN: It did.

Kianga appeared
to be very upset.

There was a lot of
running around, trumpeting,

throwing herself in the pool.

DANNY: Really?

ERIN: I think we have
a good idea what was going on.

Kianga has been spending
a lot of time with Luna

over the past couple years,

and they seem to have
developed a close relationship.

So, earlier today, it was Luna's
turn to come off the yard first,

and Kianga seemed to not
be on board with that idea.

(bellows)

DANNY: All right, other side.

ERIN: It was really nothing
that we were concerned about.

We just watched her,
made sure she calmed down.

Elephants, I feel,
are just drama in general,

one way or another.

They're so smart.
They have a lot of emotions.

DANNY: Not you. You
don't have any, do you? No.

ERIN: She has lots of emotions.

NARRATOR: And,
right now, the emotion

Kianga shows is, "Hmmm."

DANNY: Oh, good girl.

We are loving this, yeah.

(gurgles)

It's a gurgle.

It's when you're really happy,
you're having a great time.

ERIN: She also does
it when she's begging

because she knows
everybody thinks it cute.

DANNY: Yeah. 'Cause it is cute.

Kianga, foot.

Good girl.

ERIN: Are you
all calmed down now?

Nice and cool?

DANNY: Ready to go out
and have a magical day.

ERIN: Yeah, she's ready.
Good girl.

NARRATOR: Back at The Seas,
Jolo, the rescued manatee,

shows signs of a
dangerous infection.

DR. JEN: On her exam last week,
you probably remember hearing

her kind of doing this
really congested breathing.

We could hear it
almost from a distance.

And we saw a lot of
mucus coming out of her nose.

So I'm gonna be doing
an ultrasound of her lungs

to make sure there's no fluid
in there or anything abnormal.

And then we're going to be
taking a look into her nose

and her upper airway
with our endoscope.

NARRATOR: Doctor Jen wants
to check for pneumonia,

a potentially fatal condition.

DR. JEN: All right, let's go.

NARRATOR: But scanning
a manatee isn't simple.

DR. JEN: So, we need a lot of
people to restrain this manatee.

She is strong.

And, also, since we're gonna
be putting her in a stretcher

and lifting her
out onto our deck,

we need a few extra
set of hands for that.

NARRATOR: With the help
of a sling and a forklift...

KEEPER: Are you ready to go up?

DR. JEN: And this is
why we need so many people.

NARRATOR: Jolo
takes to the air.

DR. JEN: Just more
like centered on the foam.

KEEPER: A regular bag for,
like, this kind of stuff.

NARRATOR: And after
a little sedation...

DR. JEN: Good job, Jolo.

NARRATOR: Jolo is
ready for her close-up.

DR. JEN: Ultrasound's
a really great imaging modality

for the respiratory tract,

so we can look at Jolo's lungs,

and we can see
if she has fluid in there,

if she has any significant signs

of an infection,
like an abscess.

(loud breath)

Oh, nice big breath, Jolo.

Good job.

I'm a little perplexed
I don't see signs of pneumonia,

so the next thing I'm gonna do

is pass an endoscope
into her nostrils

and see if I can figure out why
she's having trouble breathing.

There's a breath.

All right, I'm
gonna go in with this,

and then we'll try to
get visualization here.

Nice breath.

Oh, it's so gross in there.

Oh, my goodness.

KEEPER: It's moving.

DR. JEN: Oh, my gosh.

KEEPER: Oh!

DR. JEN: That's not
something you see every day.

Wow.

What we're seeing is a ton
of parasites everywhere.

They are crawling up and
down her nasal passages.

We're also seeing
a lot of parasites

inside a bunch of abscesses

all up and down
the mucosa of her nostril.

It's pretty crazy.

(snorts)

Oh, wow, more
parasites coming out.

All right.

This type of parasite infection

is pretty common
in wild manatees.

The parasites live in snails
as an intermediate host,

and the snails
live on the sea grass.

And as wild
manatees are foraging,

they ingest the snail.

(snorts)

Almost done, Jolo.

When manatees are really thin
like Jolo was when she stranded,

these parasites take over,

and they can cause
pretty severe infections.

Had we not rescued Jolo,
it's highly likely

that this infection just
would have gotten worse.

She would have
developed pneumonia

and probably could
have died from it.

We're gonna give her
an antibiotic injection,

so she may give you
a little, you know, little,

little activity.

Today, we are administering
a parasite medicine to Jolo.

We're also giving
her an antibiotic,

and that's gonna help to
reduce the bacterial infection

that's in her nostrils.

Oh, this parasite's
still on my leg.

KEEPER: Well, you can have it.

DR. JEN: Uh...

This is probably in my top
five or ten of grossest things

I've seen in my career, yeah.

We have parasites on the floor.

We have parasites
on Jolo's face.

We have parasites on my pants.

I got parasites on my scrub top.

Parasites everywhere.

(snorts)

DOMINIQUE: I don't go
to the gym very often.

It's a real workout.

Gotta come and
shift the girls in,

so every single day,
we're doing this trek.

NARRATOR: In
the Land of Africa,

five-year-old cheetah triplets
Maathai, Murie, and Fossey

wait for keeper Dominique
to serve breakfast.

DOMINIQUE: Okay,
I see some kitties.

(shaking noisemaker)

This is their
auditory cue response,

pretty much like
their breakfast bell.

Maathai. Hi, baby.
You're my girl.

Maathai, in my opinion, is
definitely our funniest cat.

She's kind of a sweetheart.

She does this thing where
she'll hiss and spit at you

and then you feed her,
and she's like,

"Oh, I never did that,
that wasn't me, I'm very nice."

We don't play favorites,

but she's definitely got
a special place in my heart.

Ready?

You got your training?

Yeah.

You the best girl.

Down.

(snarls)

(clicks)

I talk to the cats a lot.

It does help them
to get used to you.

I wish they could talk back.

It would make our
job so much easier.

If there was something
going on and they were like,

"My stomach's not
feeling well today."

All done. You're finished.

Nice job, babe.

Now, we will see the
status of the other two.

(growls)

Nice job, Murie.
Come on, Foss!

NARRATOR: Murie and Fossey
come in for their eats.

DOMINIQUE: Okay, you have
a lot here that you dropped,

so are you gonna eat it?

No?

NARRATOR: With full bellies,
it's time to start the day.

DOMINIQUE: Hi.

Good morning.

These are my girls.
I love them so much.

They're so cute.
Look at them.

We got Maathai right here,
taking a nice break.

I'm trying to learn their
behaviors so that sometimes,

if they're having
an off day or an off week,

we're able to tell those things.

NARRATOR: Recently Maathai has
shown some worrying behavior.

DOMINIQUE: So, she's had
this gastritis for a while,

and sometimes she
does have some flare-ups.

She has been
doing a lot of regurg.

Sometimes it's
like a small amount,

and sometimes it's a big amount.

Lately, she's regurged pretty
much her whole meal, plus some,

for like a couple days in a row,
so that was pretty concerning.

One of those things
that we are trying to do

with Maathai and her stomach
is give her some antacids.

My fingers are always crossed,

and I'm always
hoping for the best

that she will be
a little bit better.

KEEPER: Almost lost it, yeah.

Legs are locked.

Got a little bump here.

NARRATOR: At the
veterinary treatment room,

Maathai arrives for a
check of her stomach.

RAIN: If you want
to go on the back side

of the table there, Dominique.

DR. BETSY: And on Rain's count.

RAIN: All right, you ready?
One, two, three.

All right, I'm
gonna trade places.

DR. BETSY: This is
a wellness check for her,

but also a
recheck of her stomach.

RAIN: We have seen intermittent
regurgitation episodes.

DR. BETSY: How
often do you see that?

RAIN: She actually had
an episode about a week ago

where she did that and expelled
her breakfast quite forcefully.

DR. BETSY: All right,
let's scope her.

NARRATOR: An endoscope
down Maathai's GI tract

will tell the team
if the antacid is helping.

DOMINIQUE: I'm
feeling a little anxious.

I want everything
to go smoothly.

I'm just really
hoping that her stomach

and her gastritis
is doing better.

DR. BETSY: So, I'm not
getting a good visualization

of the stomach.

We're in a lot of fluid.

We need to get suction.

(suction begins)

Thank you. Got it.

I'm not liking this area on
the stomach wall right there.

Well, this is not what I
wanted to see today at all.

DR. BETSY: This is
a serious medical issue.

There's like islands
of normal tissue here,

but then, you know,
all of these little indents

are all abnormal.

And so she has
really severe disease.

Oftentimes, this is
caused by helicobacter,

which is a type of bacteria
that lives in the stomach.

NARRATOR: The bacteria irritate
Maathai's stomach lining,

causing inflammation,
bleeding, and even ulcers.

DR. BETSY: Her gastritis
seems to be much worse

than it was at her last check.

Unfortunately, her stomach is
quite ulcerated in many areas.

RAIN: As a keeper, we
work really hard to make sure

that our animals have
the best days that they can.

And when you see
something like that,

it kind of
deflates you a little bit.

DOMINIQUE: I love her so much

that taking all of the emotion
out of it is kind of impossible.

These are, you know, my babies.

DR. BETSY: Okay,
we're done with the scope.

Thank you, Jen.

KEEPER: She's so pretty.

DR. BETSY: This is unfortunately
a really classic thing

that we see in cheetah.

So, it'll be, you know,

an antacid,
anti-inflammatory, antibiotic

combination that will help
decrease all this inflammation.

It is a really difficult
condition to cure it completely,

so we manage it with the
treatments and medications,

and then we
monitor it periodically.

So, she'll have another
wellness exam in about a year.

Are you ready to take her home?

RAIN: Yep.

All right, stable
for transport? All right.

Girl, grip those
long cheetah legs.

NARRATOR: Maathai returns home

to wake up
in familiar surroundings.

RAIN: Somebody needs
to be on door one

'cause if I need
an emergency exit,

I'm going that way.

DR. BETSY: Okay,
her reversals are in.

(gagging)

All right, I'm clear.

I'm just watching Maathai's
breathing to make sure

that she is recovering okay.

Come on, Maathai.

(kissing sounds)

Good girl. Good girl.

There she is. Good morning.

Hello.

RAIN: Oh, hey, little girl.

DR. BETSY: She starts to look
for something that's familiar,

something that's reassuring.

RAIN: You did
such a good job today.

That's a good girl.
There you go, yeah.

And for Maathai to make
that eye contact with her

and to see her looking at you
and going, "Hey, I know you."

Being that reassurance for
her is absolutely priceless.

Yeah, we're gonna just
give you some peace and quiet.

You can get a nice rest, okay?

Yeah, you get some rest.

CHRISTINE: Kevin,
our little crested coua chick,

is now 20 days old.

NARRATOR: Kevin thrives
on his hand-fed meals,

now down to just three a day.

CHRISTINE: He's ready to
graduate into the next step

of our hand-rearing process.

He's starting to spend
more time out of his nest,

perching and things like that,
so I'll go ahead and get him,

and we'll take him over to
meet some of our other chicks.

All right, buddy,
let's head over.

Ah! Look at your friends!

(hissing)

They recognize him
by just his coloration.

(hissing)

What are you guys doing?

(hissing)

So their vocalizations,
I think they're trying to,

you know, they'll
encourage him to come out

and come and hang out with them.

Are you gonna go with them?

You want to go?

(hissing)

Oh, there you are!

Go say hello.

I would say he's
looking pretty good.

NARRATOR: His new
friends are six days older

and should help him
with his next life skill,

feeding himself.

CHRISTINE: Once he gets
in here with these guys,

it shouldn't take him very long.

He will want to follow them,

kind of like a younger child
with an older child.

Hey, you're going to the food.

Let me go over
there with you as well.

NARRATOR: But sometimes,

these chicks aren't
so eager to grow up.

MEGAN: What I'm doing right now
is I am just monitoring Kevin

'cause they do like
to fake us out and pretend

that they don't know how to
eat on their own, but they do.

They just want
Mama to feed them.

(hissing)

NARRATOR: To move
to his outdoor habitat,

Kevin must master
eating from the bowl.

Keeper Megan has a plan.

MEGAN: Hey, Kevin.

Come on. I know.

So, this is all part of
having Kevin learn how to eat.

I'm not feeding him.

I'm just moving the food
just to gain his attention.

Awesome.

There's a good baby.

NARRATOR: Kevin makes his first
pecks towards independence.

MEGAN: Hey, bud, want some more?

You've had enough? Okay.

That's okay,
we'll come back later.

NARRATOR: Behind
the scenes at The Seas,

rescued manatee Jolo

gets a revisit from Doctor Jen.

DR. JEN: So, last time,
it was pretty bad.

She had live
parasites crawling around.

They were
crawling out of her nose.

She had a lot of mucus.

It was pretty gross.

So, today we're gonna
stick a scope into her nose

and see if they're improving.

NARRATOR: Doctor Nati
comes to help and because

she can never turn
down a look at a parasite.

PRODUCER: Dr. Nati, why
are you so into parasites?

(Doctor Jen laughs)

DR. NATI: They're just, I
don't know, they're fascinating.

People think of
parasites as basic animals,

but they are so highly complex,

and they have
such complex life cycles

and the ways that
they live in their hosts.

And I have to say I, I really
love the gross and the gory.

NARRATOR: While the gross
and gory can be fascinating,

if the infection
doesn't respond to medication,

Jolo's release
could be at risk.

DR. JEN: Everyone keep
your fingers crossed...

Thank you.

For good news.

The moment of truth.

Nice timing.

DR. JEN: That was a breath.

Wow.

Oh, my gosh, you guys,
look at this!

Look at that!

KEEPER: This is
just a week's time?

DR. JEN: A normal manatee nose!
KEEPER: This is fantastic!

DR. JEN: Oh, my gosh,
this is amazing.

All the inflammation's gone.
It's like nothing.

DR. NATI: Wow, looking at that,
you would not know

anything was ever wrong.

DR. JEN: Doesn't even
look like the same manatee.

DR. NATI: Mm-hmm.

DR. JEN: Well, this
looks a million times better

than last time
I passed the scope.

DR. NATI: I would have loved

seeing those
parasites firsthand,

but it's a win for the manatee,

so I'm okay with a little bit
of disappointment for myself.

(snorts)

DR. JEN: We need to put
a little bit more weight on her

before she gets
released back into the wild,

and then she
should be good to go.

I think Jolo here
got pretty lucky.

KAREN: This is one of
my favorite things to do,

just watching the,
the clouds and the mist.

After you let the animals out,

they often will just
run across the savanna.

Oh, and look,
we have a couple eland

that have now
joined us on the savanna.

There he is, Mr. Handsome.

Ben has his own fan club,

and when he's not
out here on the savanna,

people ask, "Where's Ben?"

He's just impressive.

He's just laid-back.

Animals usually
move out of his way.

He's definitely an animal
that I hold dear to my heart

because I was
around when he was born.

Oh, there he goes again.

Good job, Ben.
You get that bush.

Get those grasses.

So, they do that, you know,

it's adornment to look big
and attractive to the ladies.

We'll often just laugh and say,

"Yeah, you go,
you tear up that bush."

And, you know, he'll just
rub his head in the ground,

and he'll pick it up
and have it on his head,

or he'll just toss it around.

Sometimes it'll just
be something little,

and then sometimes he'll just
dig his whole forehead, like,

down into the ground.

Got to impress the ladies, man.
Get a nice hat now.

He's just,
he's beautiful-looking.

RAIN: All right, cheetah time!

Woo-hoo-hoo!

Good morning, ladies.
How are you this morning?

Okay, yeah, a little
grooming has to happen here.

Make sure
everybody's faces are clean.

NARRATOR: It's been 12 weeks

since Maathai started
her stomach treatment.

RAIN: She's got a medicine

that really is helping
her stomach to heal.

And then she's got
another medication

that's going to help
treat any extra bacteria.

The treatment tool
that we're using temporarily

just during
this little flare-up.

I see you over there.

(shaking noisemaker)

NARRATOR: Today
is a chance to see

if Maathai's
recovery is on track.

RAIN: When she's
not feeling well,

she doesn't train very much.

She really doesn't
get excited about things.

She's not as interactive.

And so today is really gonna be
kind of the big test for her,

to showcase whether or
not she's back to 100%.

We're so excited!

You feel like
doing some training?

Come on in.

Atta girl. Look at that.

What do you think?

NARRATOR: The challenge;
Voluntary injections.

RAIN: I'm gonna
give her a treat here

and then kind of poke her where
she would get an injection.

All right, sit.

(clicks)

Very nice. Thank you.

Are you ready again? Touch.

(hiss)

I know, I know.
Oh, poking, poking, poking.

Good girl!

When you
weren't feeling so good,

you didn't want to do it.

NARRATOR: Mock injection done,
Rain asks Maathai to get

in position
for a fake ultrasound.

RAIN: All the way down.

Really?

Well, sitting is close,
but it's not down.

(clicks)

Thank you. Good girl.

That's a good girl.
There you go.

All right, that's
all we needed to do.

You're all done!

You are 100% sparkly,
shiny Maathai.

Look at that.

I can tell, yeah,
you're feeling good.

You're eating well.

You're bright-eyed.
You're ready to go.

Thai! She's back!

Really fun to be able
to see her engage right away,

and she stayed focused,
and she's wanting to work,

and she's learning new things.

And so that is
just wonderful to see.

I'm really happy
with how she looks.

That's great.

CHRISTINE: So,
this little guy over here

looks like he's taken
a little bit of a bath

in his water bowl.

This is Kevin.

NARRATOR: After 30 days
of meticulous care,

crested coua
Kevin is all grown up,

and he's no
longer an only child.

CHRISTINE: Kelvin
is his brother.

This little crested coua chick

hatched right after Kevin did.

NARRATOR: Now that Kevin's
mastered feeding himself,

the brothers are ready
for their time in the sun.

CHRISTINE: We're
seeing a lot of perching,

they're going back and forth,
so we really think

that they are ready
for their next step outdoors,

so we're super excited.

They are ready to go.

All right, so here we go.

This is gonna be very
exciting for them, hopefully.

Oh!

Kelvin went ahead
and just flew right out.

Kevin, on the other hand,

he's not really
sure what's happening.

Here he is.

So, what he's doing right
now is he's found a sun spot,

so it might take
him a few minutes

to head over to the perch

because he is
trying to get some sun.

(laughs)

Hi, buddy.

And there he goes.

Just the fact that he's, um,
already going up to the perch

and trying to sun, we couldn't
ask for anything better.

Bye, Kevin, we'll see you later.

NARRATOR: Back at The Seas...

DR. NATI: We put
some girth on her.

NARRATOR: After months
of rehabilitation...

KEEPER: Go, go, go, go!

NARRATOR: Jolo's going home.

DR. NATI: She's super strong.
I love seeing that.

She all settled in for the ride?

She looks like
she found a comfy spot.

This is the
grand finale for Jolo.

She has been through so much,

and she's done so well eating

and gaining weight and
recovering from her infection,

and so today
she gets the big reward

of going back out
into the wild waterways.

NARRATOR: Jolo's ready to
be back where she belongs

at the state park.

KEEPER: Everybody
in your assigned places.

KEEPER 2: Are you ready?

KEEPER: We're ready.

KEEPER 2: Lifting.

DR. NATI: Jolo
is such a trouper.

She's been through a lot,

and she just
keeps moving forward,

one flipper in
front of the other.

She looks nice and calm, Conrad.

CONRAD: She does, I know.

DR. NATI: She's
doing really well.

Nice breath.

Smell the water close by?

NARRATOR: Jolo will keep
in touch with a GPS tag

that'll easily
break free if snagged.

DR. NATI: Jolo's
gonna be providing

important information for
us with the satellite tracker.

We'll learn about
the success of her return,

and that will help us learn
and make sure that we're doing

all we can to make
sure that they thrive

once they go back in the water.

Doctor Jen made me
promise to give you

a little hug and a
kiss before you go.

Look at those pretty,
clean nostrils.

No worms in there anymore.

KEEPER: Everybody ready?

All right, one, two, three.

DR. NATI: Here's the big moment.

KEEPER: All right, guys,
stretcher down.

DR. NATI: All right, Jolo,
it's time to go.

(applause)

There she goes.

Aw!

Oh!

Oh, look at her.

We will miss her, but for us,
the exciting thing is knowing

that she's back
where she belongs.

This is a really
good day for Jolo.

NARRATOR: And this girl
wastes no time making friends.

DR. NATI: It's
amazing to see her join

other manatees so quickly.

She's gonna be just fine.

Are you having fun?

She looks so happy.

Today was a magical day.
