A Year in Review with Keeper SierraAdded:
So, when Mars was first born, he was about 13 lb. Yesterday, when we weighed him, he was 74.
Pygmy hippos actually double their birth weight in the first 3 weeks.
By the time he's full grown, he'll be about 500 lb. Right now, Posey is about 400 lb and Pluto is about 500 lb. Got to go. Bye.
Oh, I almost fell in.
That what she sounds like?
Look at me.
Go inside. It's got to be stored.
Mars attacks. Mars attacks.
Let's go inside. Let's go inside where your mom is.
You're getting heavier.
heavier The thing with my carrots, I prefer sharing them with a friend.
Me, too.
>> [snorts] >> Did you know that Tanganyika still does experiences over the winter?
That's right. You can still meet rhinos, capybaras, and otters.
Everyone except Sierra she's clearly busy.
Come make your winter wildly different.
Now that you're not distracted >> [laughter] >> flooded the comments with Mars questions last time.
So, let's do a round two.
Drop your Mars questions in the comments below.
What are you doing? I need to flip that switch.
>> know what you're doing.
>> know what I'm doing.
>> You're not on maintenance. You have no idea. You should try being in my shoes, waiting around for you guys all the time.
>> try being in my shoes and having to come do everything.
Whoa, that felt weird. Yeah, what happened? Where are my glasses? I need to get over to Mars. I got to get to the swimming expansion.
Mars attacks. Mars attacks. He's had too many snacks. Mars attacks. Mars attacks.
He just wants to relax. Dwayne.
Dwayne.
So, everyone's been asking how big Mars will get. Right now, he's about 80 lb.
But, as he gets grown he'll be about 5 600 lb.
I'm maintenance man Frank and I'm here to give you guys an update on the otter penguin swimming expansion. I'm here in our penguin pool area. The pool's in. It has water. We've got turf and a fancy new rock wall.
Wait, is there a wall in my pants?
It has HVAC.
It has electrical.
And it has plumbing. Can you be more enthusiastic? What do you want from me, Spielberg? I don't like plumbing and electrical. And I really don't think Mars likes my singing. You want to switch back?
>> Let's switch back.
>> [music] [music] >> So, since I couldn't master the mom stare or Posey's vocalizations, someone decided to send me this so that I can become one with the potatoes.
And thank you very much. Stay tuned on if it works.
It's just me.
I'm not an actual potato. Okay.
Knockaround was super awesome and sent us a couple pairs of sunglasses. So, I'm going to send Ellie on a scavenger hunt to find one of the pairs. This species is rare like the love these two share.
However, he must admire her from afar because his height is not quite to par.
>> [laughter] >> I wonder Who do I know that he's too short >> #shortking to reach his girlfriend?
Some say I need a hearing test, but I think that Ting Tings said it best.
>> [laughter] >> What?
Ting Tings What is a Ting Ting?
I'm putting in a friend. Oh god. What are the Ting Tings?
>> [laughter] >> So, I'm not alone. They call me Stacy.
They call me her. They call me Jane.
That's not my name. Is this supposed to be about Dwayne? Is this about Dwayne?
>> [clears throat] [laughter] >> They say I'm just a bean, the cutest one you'd ever seen. Rumor has it I stolen your heart, but have you told little Mars I've been your favorite from the very start.
Here at the cafe The [Β __Β ] herself, Miss Garbanzo Bean.
Is our next clue.
You came up with his name, and if you ask anyone, they'll say he was made for fame. He likes to relax, he likes his snacks, but but he rarely attacks.
Right here.
Heavy is the head that wears the crown, and it's even heavier with your sunglasses weighing it down.
The queen of the park. [laughter] It's Jessica. Where is Jessica? Jessica.
>> [laughter] >> You have something for me? Oh, really?
What do you think is that?
Heavy is the head that wears the crown, and it's even heavier with your sunglasses weighing it down.
They're so sick.
Oh, I feel cool.
What does Keep a Sierra do on her birthday?
Sierra.
Seriously, get back to work.
You guys, how many times have we been over this? Some things are not a three-person job.
You guys, we've been over this. Some things [laughter] are not a two-person job.
You guys, how many times do I have to tell you that there are some things that are not A THREE-PERSON JOB?
>> [laughter] [music] [music] >> SO, ALSO SHOUT OUT TO LILLY FOR convincing her to quit. What are you doing?
>> [laughter] >> And stay here.
Uh Sierra has wanted to be in a coffee keeper and I don't know if she was really a tempted to no copy ads. So, that uh refuse to lose and thinking outside the box has been amazing to watch and happy anniversary. Thank you.
I mean, in theory, oh my god.
We can We can >> [laughter] >> What are you doing?
I'm making Melissa come back.
