If I were an animal, I'd be a sheepdog.

Like that little puppy? A Great Pyrenees?

Pyrenees? That's a funny name. Let's call this one Phem.

He's getting to know his siblings by sniffing them.

Soon, they're gonna act like one big family.

He thinks the kitten is his sister.

But that cat's never gonna hurt a sheep like Phem.

Hurry, Phem, this kitten's a fast one.

Silly puppy, that's not an ice cream cone.

And lunch is served.

What about Phem?

Hey, what kind of barn animal uses a rake?

Why is he all alone now?

He is two months old.

He can already do it all on his own.

See them? That's his new herd.

Yeah, I know. They're sniffing each other to say hello.

Phem has to accepted by his new family.

Hey, I think that's enough snuggling for now.

Whew! Finally.

If I were him, I'd be annoyed by all those flies.

Hey, that's Phem!

I'd recognize that goofy dog anywhere.

Except now he's a grown-up. He is protecting his herd.

- Yay! Vacation time!

Yup. In the summer, the sheep get to eat fresh grass

way up in the mountains!

Whoa. That's a lot of sheep to take care of.

That's the perfect spot to take a break.

Are they having a rolling contest?

No.

Phem's just so used to living with them, he's acting like them, too.

He thinks he's a sheep?

Kinda.

Tonight, he'll sleep under the stars.

Huh? Emma, I think Phem sees something.

Huh! Me too. I saw a shadow.

You tell that bear, Phem. No one messes with our herd!

Why aren't they all thanking him?

Because it's his job to protect them.

And he's happy to do it.

Have fun with your new family, Phem.

If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a fox.

Look, Emma, this fox wants to show us something.

Aww.

Look at all her cute babies.

I'm gonna call this one Elliot.

He sure is curious.

- Oops.

Looks like one little fall won't stop him.

Oh, yeah. But their mom's always one step ahead.

There you go, Elliot. It's drinkies time.

Look, Emma. Elliot can't sit still. Must be trying to get comfy.

Wow, Tim! Look how different they are!

Yeah. Now that they're one month old,

they're starting to get their adult colors.

But they still need their naps though.

Except for Elliot.

It's his first outing. Everything must be exciting to him.

I think his siblings are too scared to explore.

Looks like Elliot got frightened, too.

Everything's better when their mom's around.

The fox pups always feel safe with her.

Do you see that?

Elliot is warning his family about the thunderstorm.

Is that crow their babysitter?

No. But I can tell he's up to something sneaky.

Here comes trouble.

Hey! That's not fair! He isn't one of the babies.

If I were a fox, I'd tell that crow, "Nuh-uh!"

Now you see me, now you don't.

Elliot is four months old now, so he's hunting for himself.

You wanna eat a hedgehog? Careful.

He's spiky.

Don't worry, he's just curious.

Uh-oh, that sneaky crow is back.

Careful, Elliot.

Look, one of the crows is hurt.

- He's just pretending. - Why?

He's hoping that Elliot will get distracted and follow him.

He's got some nerve.

It was all part of his plan to get a quick meal.

And now those greedy crows are fighting over it.

Yeah. But like all kids, Elliot learns by making mistakes.

Better luck next time, Elliot.

If I were an animal, I'd be a butterfly!

And I'd be a dragonfly. Just like this one.

Let's call it Lilil.

It's so pretty, look at it fly.

It didn't always look like that.

Look. This is the dragonfly before its transformation.

- That's Lilil? - Yup.

When it was an aquatic larva.

So, it swims before it flies?

Yup.

See that? It's using all of its energy to transform.

It's like its taking off its coat.

Yeah. But this dragonfly won't be wearing that coat again.

It's finally free.

I wouldn't wanna hang upside down all day.

It's beautiful.

But I wanna see it fly.

Be patient, Emma.

The wings need to dry first.

I don't remember it raining.

No. It's just the morning dew.

Look, its first liftoff!

Reach for the sky, Lilil!

Oh, Tim. Look at the caterpillar with all the spots on it.

I'm gonna call it Paula.

Do you see that other one?

Yeah, it's super green.

Let's call that one Nico.

They have lots of legs to help them grip and crawl up those stems.

And they sure look hungry.

They have to stay well-fed for their metamorphosis.

Meta-what-sis?

It's like when superheroes transform.

Oops!

Where are you going, Paula?

That's got to tickle.

It's looking for a plant to match its colors.

- Huh? - To blend in with its surroundings.

Is the caterpillar going to sleep?

Not yet.

First, it's got to anchor a thread of silk.

And then it will start making its chrysalis.

Oh, I get it.

It's gonna transform into a butterfly.

Yup, exactly.

Look at that.

They're getting ready to show us their new wings.

This one looks like it's coming out of a sleeping bag.

So does this one.

Hello there.

System's ready. Antennas, check.

Wings, check.

We have lift off!

Wow!

If I were a butterfly, I'd be proud of myself for flying on my first try.

Metamorphosis takes a lot of energy. These butterflies need to refuel.

This one looks like it's drinking out of a straw.

That's cool, isn't it?

This butterfly drinks while it's flying,

but the other butterfly drinks while it's sitting down.

Now they're ready to explore.

Have a great time, guys.

Bye, Paul. Bye, Nico.

If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a cheetah in the African Savanna.

But why does the momma cheetah carry her babies like that, Tim?

Kittens have extra skin on the back of their neck

so their mom can grab them when she needs to.

That doesn't look comfy at all.

Let's call this guy Charlie.

-Looks like milk for breakfast. - That's right.

Like all mammals, cheetahs drink their mom's milk when they're babies.

But what about when they grow up?

She teaches them to hunt.

Lesson number one, locate the target.

Well spotted, Charlie.

Lesson two, catch the target.

Wow! That was quick!

Cheetahs are the fastest mammal on the planet.

Dinner time, kids.

Hey, no birds allowed. Go away.

That's just how it works in the Savanna. There's vultures.

Hmm. If I were a cheetah, I'd chase them all away.

The most important part was the hunting lesson which was a success.

Look, Charlie's hiding.

He knew it was gonna rain.

They're soaking wet.

With all this teamwork,

mom's gonna be spotless.

Time for a swim.

I guess not all kitties hate water after all.

Momma's teaching them more hunting skills today.

That's right. Lesson number three, mom's the fastest.

They sure got a lot of energy.

Which they use practicing how to attack and defend themselves.

Looks like they're just playing though.

I think they've earned a nice rest.

Wow! Charlie and his brothers look so focused.

Shh!

Oh, well. Better luck next time.

Charlie seems a little scared.

That's because the elephants are so much bigger than him.

And there's so many of them.

But he's safe here.

Tim, are those the toilets?

Kinda. They do those to mark their territory.

Looks like everyone is ready for a snuggly sleep.

Sweet dreams, Charlie.
