There is high drama as Yana the tiger cracks a canine. It must be removed, but it’s not a simple procedure and the anaesthetic doesn’t go to plan.\n\nWith the help of a bucket of water and a tiny camera, Kate sets out to answer a burning question – how does water get from the giraffe’s mouth, all the way down its long neck and into its stomach?\n\nBen meets one of the newest set of animals to be introduced to the park – all 100,000 of them! He joins beekeeper Dennis at the beehives to collect some nutritious honey for a pregnant giant anteater.\n\nWho won the race, the tortoise or the tortoise? Jean Johansson finds out that when it comes to speed, the pancake tortoise doesn’t live up to the stereotype.
