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.
