00:00Here we are at one of the country's most interesting zoos.
00:27Here we find the wolf in his natural setting.
00:42Next, a pack of camels.
00:47A North American greyhound.
00:54And here, two bucks and five cents.
01:02And here, two friendly elks.
01:05Hello Bill. Hello Bill. Hello Bill. Hello Bill.
01:09No zoo would be complete without a monkey cage.
01:25Whistle.
01:55Hey sister, can't you read?
02:05Mother Nature's own weatherman.
02:08The little groundhog and his chattel.
02:15Over here, we find...
02:21Hey, hey, don't annoy that lion. It's dangerous.
02:25Can't you read that sign?
02:27You'd better take my advice and leave him alone.
02:29Shame, shame, you're a bad boy.
02:34The skunk cage is always a center of interest.
02:47Well, we're lucky.
02:49It's feeding time for the giraffe.
03:09Listen now fella, this is the second time I've had to speak to you.
03:12Leave that lion alone. I'm warning you.
03:16I'm a bad boy.
03:21And here we come to a family of white rabbits.
03:24Of course, you all know how fast they multiply.
03:36Now over here in the birdhouse, we find the wise old owl.
03:41Who? You.
03:43Me? Yes.
03:45Ooh.
03:49An interesting bird is the South African talking parrot.
03:53Polly want a cracker?
03:55I said, uh, Polly want a cracker?
03:58Nah, give me a short beer.
04:03Another interesting bird is the Alcatraz jailbird.
04:07I didn't do it, I tell ya.
04:09Okay, I was framed, see?
04:11Yeah, I'm innocent.
04:13I can't do this to me, see?
04:15I can't hang this on me.
04:17I didn't do it, I tell ya.
04:18I didn't do it, I tell ya.
04:20Oh, he did so do it.
04:22I saw him with my very own eyes.
04:24So there.
04:28Over here, we find mother ostrich on her nest.
04:41Well, you do have something to crow about.
04:44Oh, oh, oh, look out, look out.
04:47Well, a jackpot.
05:00For the last time, you'd better stop annoying that lion if you know what's good for ya.
05:07You're a bad boy.
05:11New to the zoo is an elephant just in from Africa.
05:15Hello, express company, this is Joe Jumbo.
05:20We'll send it up right away.
05:23You know, those guys have had my trunk for a week.
05:29And here we have, well, these are some things we had left over from that last New Year's party.
05:42Pacing back and forth in their cage, we find two restless panthers.
05:46Bread and butter, bread and butter, bread and butter, bread and butter, bread and butter, bread and butter.
05:52Well, here we have J. Wellington Buttonhook.
05:56Mr. Buttonhook used to thrill thousands at the circus by putting his head in a lion's mouth.
06:07In this cage, we find the Rocky Mountain Wildcat.
06:14Hey, bud, hey, hey, just a minute, bud.
06:16Tell me, just what made you wild?
06:19What made me wild?
06:20What made me wild?
06:22Well, I'll tell you.
06:23They called my name out at bank night, and I wasn't there.
06:33Well, I guess that little fellow finally took my advice and went home.
06:49I'm a bad boy.
