Transcript: Deer Buckaroo
Music plays as the Wild Kratts logo pops up and a voice says Wild Kratts!
Then, a globe spins and Southern Asia appears highlighted. A clip shows images of a green meadow with a wooded area.
The Kratt brothers appear. Chris wears a green shirt and Martin wears a blue shirt.
Martin says WE’RE HERE IN NORTH
AMERICA IN THE EASTERN
WOODLANDS AT PARC OMÉGA.
IT’S US THE KRATT BROTHERS.
Martin says I’M MARTIN...
Chris says I’M CHRIS.
AND MEADOWS AND FORESTS LIKE
THESE ARE THE PERFECT HOME
FOR THE GRACEFUL...
Martin says ATHLETIC...
Chris says INTELLIGENT...
The brothers say
WHITE-TAILED DEER.
Chris says WHITE-TAILED DEER
LIVE IN LOOSE HERDS
THAT MEANS THEY SOMETIMES BAND
TOGETHER IN GROUPS AND SOMETIMES
THEY CAN GO OFF
ON THEIR OWN TOO.
Martin point at a deer and says THAT GUY IS SHOWING US
WHY THIS SPECIES OF DEER
IS CALLED A WHITE-TAIL.
DID YOU SEE THE FUR
UNDERNEATH THE TAIL IS WHITE.
NOW WHITE-TAILED DEER RAISE
THAT AS A FLAG TO GIVE AN ALARM
SAYING TO ALL THE OTHER DEER
IN THE HERD, THERE’S DANGER,
GET READY YOU MIGHT HAVE TO RUN.
Chris says DEER HAVE INCREDIBLE
SENSORY CREATURE POWERS.
THE EYES ON THE SIDES OF THEIR
HEAD GIVE THEM AMAZING VISION.
THE ONLY PART THEY CAN’T
SEE IS DIRECTLY BEHIND THEM.
SO THEY’LL USUALLY STAND
WITH THEIR BACKS
AGAINST THE ON COMING WIND.
THAT WAY ANY PREDATOR
SNEAKING UP,
THEIR SCENT WILL
COME WITH THE WIND
AND THEY’LL BE ABLE
TO DETECT THEM BEHIND THEM.
INCREDIBLE.
Martin says WHITE-TAILED
FAWNS, LIKE THIS GUY,
HAVE AMAZING CREATURE POWERS.
CAN YOU BELIEVE 20
MINUTES AFTER HE WAS BORN
HE COULD ALREADY STAND UP.
AND THEN IN ONE
HOUR HE WAS WALKING.
AND AFTER FIVE DAYS HE
WAS RUNNING ALREADY!
Chris says IMAGINE GROWING UP AS
A LITTLE WHITE-TAILED DEER.
WHAT WOULD LIFE BE LIKE FOR YOU?
Martin says WHAT WOULD IT BE LIKE TO
HAVE THE WHITE-TAILED DEER’S
SPECIAL SKILLS AND
AMAZING ATHLETIC ABILITY.
Chris says IMAGINE IF
WE COULD FIND OUT.
Martin says IMAGINE IF WE HAD
WHITE-TAILED DEER POWER.
They both say WHAT IF!
The brothers jump and turn into cartoons. In animation, a paw print appears, followed by a map, and then the brothers swim under the sea and swing from jungle vines.
A song plays and says ON ADVENTURE WITH THE COOLEST CREATURES, FROM THE OCEANS TO THE TREES, THE BROTHERS KRATT ARE GOING PLACES YOU NEVER GET TO SEE, HANGING WITH THEIR CREATURE FRIENDS. GET READY, IT’S THE HOUR, WE’RE GONNA SAVE SOME ANIMALS TODAY WITH CREATURE POWER! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD!
Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy Z send them creature disks from Tortuga, the ship. The brothers place the disks in their suits and morph into superheroes with animal legs and wings. Then, they run, swim and fly with animals in the wild.
The song continues
CHEETAH SPEED AND LIZARD GLIDE, FALCON FLIGHT AND LION PRIDE, GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS. GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS!
The name of the episode appears. It reads “Deer buckeroo.”
Koki and Aviva play football outside.
Koki says NOTHING LIKE A GAME OF
CATCH ON A BEAUTIFUL FALL DAY.
Aviva says YOU SAID IT!
IT’S A GOOD BREAK
FROM INVENTING TOO!
Aviva throws the ball really far and it lands in the bushes.
Koki says HEY!
Aviva says OOPS. A LITTLE TOO
MUCH MUSTARD ON THAT ONE.
Koki goes get the ball and says YA THINK?
WHOA, AVIVA LOOK!
A pair of antlers come of the bushes.
Aviva says HUH? WHAT?
Koki says ANTLERS IN THE BUSHES.
Aviva says I DON’T BELIEVE IT.
A DEER.
The deer throws the ball back to Aviva.
Aviva says THAT CAN THROW?
Koki says THAT’S ONE AMAZING DEER.
Martin comes out of the bushes, take the antlers off his head and says THANKS. GLAD
YOU THINK I’M AMAZING.
GOT YA! (LAUGHING)
Koki says WE SHOULD’VE KNOWN.
Aviva says OH DEER...
Martin says I FOUND THESE DEER
ANTLERS IN THE WOODS.
I’D KNEW IT’D BE
GOOD FOR A LAUGH.
DID YOU SEE THAT? CHRIS..
CHRIS?
Chris says YEAH...FUNNY...
Aviva says WHY SO GLUM?
Martin says WHAT’S WRONG BRO?
Chris says OH, WELL...I WAS JUST
LOOKING AT OLD PICTURES ON MY
CREATUREPOD AND FOUND SOME
OF A LONG LOST PAL OF OURS.
REMEMBER THIS LITTLE
WHITE-TAILED DEER FAWN?
Martin says LITTLE BUCKAROO.
HOW COULD I FORGET?
Aviva says OF COURSE, SUCH A CUTIE.
Koki says HE WAS SPECIAL.
Chris says YEAH, WE HAVEN’T SEEN
HIM SINCE WAY BACK THEN.
YOU KNOW HE’D BE FOUR
AND-A-HALF YEARS OLD NOW.
Martin says I WONDER HOW
OUR BUDDY IS DOING?
Aviva says DO YOU THINK
HE’S STILL OUT THERE
SOMEWHERE IN THESE WOODS?
Chris says I DON’T KNOW, BUT I
REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME
WE MET HIM LIKE
IT WAS YESTERDAY.
Chris and Martin take a walk on agreen meadow.
Martin says AHHH... SPRING TIME
IN THE TEMPERATE FOREST.
Martin says ONE OF MY
FAVORITE TIMES.
FLOWERS BLOOMING.
BABY ANIMALS EVERYWHERE.
OH AND...
Chris says STOP! DON’T MOVE.
Martin says TRYING NOT TO.
BUT WHY?
Chris says BECAUSE LOOK.
A CUTE LITTLE FAWN.
Martin says A WHITE-TAILED
DEER FAWN.
JUST A FEW DAYS OLD. YOU’RE
DOING A GOOD JOB, BUDDY.
KEEPING STILL AND MOTIONLESS
WHILE YOUR MOM’S OFF FEEDING.
Chris says YEAH, EXACTLY WHAT A
DEER FAWN IS SUPPOSED TO DO.
AND WE’LL LEAVE YOU
ALONE LITTLE PAL,
SO WE DON’T GIVE AWAY
YOUR HIDING SPOT.
They spot a fox approaching.
The brothers say UH-OH...
Martin says NOW THAT’S A DEER
FAWN’S HIDING POWER IN ACTION.
Chris says YUP. SPOTS
FOR CAMOUFLAGE.
AND FAWNS HAVE VIRTUALLY
NO SCENT AT ALL.
SO THEY’RE REALLY
HARD FOR A PREDATOR
TO SNIFF OUT AND FIND.
Martin says BUT LOOK.
Mom deer approaches.
Martin says MOM ALWAYS KNOWS WHERE HE IS.
Chris says THAT’S WHY IT’S SO
IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO LEAVE
FAWNS ALONE IF YOU FIND THEM.
THEY MAY LOOK LOST OR ORPHANED,
BUT THEY’RE NOT,
MOM IS NEVER FAR AWAY.
Martin says HE’S A LITTLE
BUCK CHRIS, A BOY DEER.
I’LL NAME HIM BUCKAROO,
THE CUTEST LITTLE
DEER IN THE WORLD.
Chris says LITTLE DID WE KNOW
THAT WOULDN’T BE THE LAST
TIME WE SAW OUR PAL.
Martin says YEAH THAT WAS
JUST THE BEGINNING OF OUR
ADVENTURE WITH BUCKAROO.
Chris says AW I SURE MISS HIM.
Martin sighs and says ME TOO.
Aviva says WELL THEN, WHY
ARE YOU SITTING THERE
LOOKING AT HIS PICTURE?
YOU SHOULD GET OUT
THERE AND FIND HIM!
Koki says IF ANYBODY CAN
FIND HIM, YOU GUYS CAN.
Chris says WELL HE’D BE A
FULL-GROWN BUCK NOW.
Martin says HE’D LOOK
TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
Chris says BUT WE’D
RECOGNIZE HIM ANYWAY.
Martin says OF COURSE WE WOULD.
Aviva says DID HE HAVE ANY
DISTINGUISHING MARKINGS?
Chris says HE DID HAVE
THAT ONE FLOPPY EAR.
Martin says LET’S DO IT. LET’S
FIND THE LITTLE BUCKAROO!
MAYBE BIG BUCKAROO NOW.
Chris says WE CAN SPLIT UP.
I’LL SEARCH BY AIR,
WITH BALD EAGLE POWER!
(WHISTLES)
He whistles and an eagle flies in.
He climbs up the roof of the Tortuga and says INSERT CREATURE POWER DISC!
TOUCH BALD EAGLE!
ACTIVATE BALD EAGLE POWER!
WOOHOO!
He morphs into an eagle.
Martin says AND I’LL SEE IF
I CAN FIND HIM WITH DEER
INSTINCT AND KNOW HOW.
CAN WE USE THIS TO START
PROGRAMMING A DEER POWER SUIT?
Aviva says I THINK I CAN DO THAT.
Koki says AND I’LL SEND AN ALERT TO
WILD KRATTS KIDS TO SEE IF THEY
HAVE ANY LOCAL INTEL
ON WHITE-TAILED DEER.
Martin says LET’S DO THIS GANG!
LET’S FIND BUCKAROO!
Koki and Aviva say YEAH!
Hovering over the field, Chris says WITH BALD EAGLE
POWERS OF KEEN EYESIGHT
AND A BIRD’S EYE VIEW,
I SHOULD BE ABLE TO SPOT
SOME DEER. ONE DEER CAN HAVE
A HOME RANGE OF MORE THAN
500 ACRES OF WOODS, FIELDS,
AND EVEN HUMAN NEIGHBORHOODS.
WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY BUCKAROO
SHOWED UP A SECOND TIME.
Back then, Aviva, Martin and Chris plant dogwood seedlings.
Aviva says SO WHY DID YOU GUYS
WANT TO PLANT THESE DOGWOOD
SEEDLINGS SO BADLY?
Chris says IT’S ONE OF THE FAVORITE
FOODS OF THE WHITE-TAILED DEER.
GREAT FOR COVER TOO.
Martin says WE MET THE CUTEST
LITTLE FAWN TODAY.
SO WE THOUGHT WE’D HELP
THE DEER OUT A LITTLE BIT.
Aviva says COOL.
LOOK AT HOW MANY
WE PLANTED SO FAR.
Leo and Audrey come along dragging a wagon.
Leo says CHRIS! MARTIN! AVIVA!
WE NEED YOUR HELP.
Audrey says WITH A CREATURE RESCUE.
Martin says HEY AUDREY,
LEO, WHAT’S GOING ON?
Leo says WE FOUND AN
ANIMAL IN TROUBLE,
SO WE BROUGHT HIM TO YOU.
The brothers say BUCKAROO!
Audrey says HE WAS ALL
ALONE IN A FIELD.
Martin says UM...UH...
OKAY, YOU KIDS
ARE GREAT FOR WANTING
TO HELP ANIMALS...BUT...
Chris says SOMETIMES
ANIMALS MAY SEEM LIKE
THEY’RE IN TROUBLE...
BUT THEY’RE REALLY NOT.
Leo says WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
Martin says IT’S NATURAL
FOR A FAWN TO BE ALONE
IN THE GRASS OR THE WOODS.
Audrey says IT IS?
Chris says IT SURE IS.
SO THE BEST THING TO DO
IS LEAVE THE FAWN ALONE
AND HIS MOTHER WILL COME BACK.
Leo says OH NO. WE
MADE A BIG MISTAKE.
Audrey says WE’RE SORRY. WE
WERE ONLY TRYING TO HELP.
Aviva says WE KNOW. AND DON’T WORRY.
TOGETHER WE CAN FIX
THIS, RIGHT GUYS?
Martin says RIGHT. WE’LL
GET HIM BACK TO HIS MOM.
AND IN THE MEANTIME, WE KNOW
EXACTLY HOW TO CARE FOR HIM.
Chris says WE SURE DO.
Chris feeds him with a bottle and says WITH SPECIAL FAWN
MILK TO TIDE HIM OVER.
Leo says COOL!
Audrey says AWESOME!
Martin says I REALLY HOPE WE CAN
GET THIS GUY BACK TO HIS MOM.
Chris says I KNOW. WE’VE GOT TO TRY.
Now in the air, Chris says FINDING A CERTAIN
INDIVIDUAL DEER ISN’T EASY.
EVEN THOUGH WHITE-TAILED
DEER ARE THE MOST COMMON
LARGE MAMMAL IN NORTH AMERICA.
In a backyard, Jenny says CHRIS! DOWN HERE!
Chris says COMING DOWN JENNY!
HEY...
Jenny says CHRIS, WE
JUST GOT KOKI’S MESSAGE.
THERE’S A PLACE NEAR HERE
WHERE THERE’S LOTS OF DEER.
Nolan says THERE’S SO MUCH
SUMAC FOR THE DEER TO EAT.
IT’S THAT WAY.
OVER THAT HILL.
Chris says THANKS NOLAN,
I’LL CHECK IT OUT!
Jenny says BYE!
Nolan says GOOD LUCK!!
At the Tortuga, Aviva says OKAY, WE’RE ALMOST THERE.
ONE LAST THING TO PROGRAM.
I’M GOING TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE
A BIG FULL RACK, ISN’T
THAT WHAT YOU CALL IT?
Martin says OH YEAH!
GREAT. I’M READY.
Aviva says AND.. PRINT WHITE-
TAILED DEER POWERDISC.
CATCH.
Martin catches the disc and says INSERT
CREATURE POWER DISC..
TOUCH DEER OR ANTLER...
AND ACTIVATE WHITE-TAILED
DEER POWER!
He morphs into a strange looking deer and says WOW! I FEEL GRACEFUL
AND DEER LIKE.
Aviva says MOMENTITO, SOMETHING
DOESN’T LOOK LIKE A DEER.
Martin says WHAT? HORNS!
WHO EVER HEARD OF
A DEER WITH HORNS!
Aviva says UH-OH THERE MUST HAVE
BEEN MISTAKE IN THE PROGRAMMING
MODULE I CONNECTED TO.
Martin says DEER DON’T HAVE
HORNS. THEY HAVE ANTLERS.
Jimmy says EH, HORNS. ANTLERS.
WHAT’S THE DIFF?
Martin says THAT’S LIKE SAYING
THERE’S NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
A BASEBALL AND A TENNIS BALL.
HORNS AND ANTLERS ARE DIFFERENT.
Jimmy says THAT DIFFERENT?
Koki says YEAH. LOOK HERE JIMMY.
HORNS GROW CONTINUOUSLY
THROUGHOUT THE BUFFALO’S LIFE.
THEY ARE FED BY BLOOD
VESSELS AND GROWTH PLATES
IN THE CORE OF THE HORN.
THEY NEVER FALL OFF OR SHED.
Martin says ANTLERS, ON THE OTHER
HAND, ARE FED BY BLOOD VESSELS
IN THE OUTER COATING,
CALLED VELVET.
AND THE AMAZING THING IS,
DEER GROW A NEW SET
OF ANTLERS EVERY YEAR.
THEY START GROWING
IN THE SPRING
AND THEN SOMETIME IN THE WINTER,
AUTOMATICALLY FALL OFF.
Jimmy says THEY HIT THE
OLD ANTLER EJECT BUTTON.
Martin says WELL SORT OF.
THAT WAY THEY DON’T
HAVE TO CARRY
THESE ANTLERS AROUND ALL YEAR.
AND THEN IN THE NEW YEAR,
A DEER’S ANTLERS GROW
TO AN EVEN LARGER SIZE.
Jimmy says BUT WHY
GROW ANTLERS AT ALL?
Martin says WELL LET’S GET ANTLERS
ON THIS CREATURE POWER SUIT
AND I’LL SHOW YOU.
Aviva says ON IT!
I NEED DOWNLOAD
A FEW ADJUSTMENTS
BASED ON THE DNA CODE.
OKAY, ALL SET.
AAAND...THERE!
I JUST NEED TO
RESTART THE UPDATE.
Horns retract and antlers come out.
Martin says NOW THAT’S
MORE LIKE IT!
AN EIGHT POINT RACK. COOL!
I’M OUTTA HERE!
THANKS AVIVAAAA!
In the woods, Martin says WOW, 9 METER LEAPS!
50 KILOMETERS
PER HOUR TOP SPEED!
AND MY SENSES.
I CAN HEAR REALLY WELL...
(SNIFFS) SMELL THINGS
LIKE NEVER BEFORE.
(SNIFFS) SOMETHING’S BEHIND ME.
A BLACK BEAR!
NOT SO FAST, BUDDY.
The bear roars and Martin says WHOA! SMELL YA LATER!
He leaps away and says WHEW.
THIS 310 DEGREE DEER
VISION IS AWESOME TOO.
WITH EYES ON EACH
SIDE OF MY HEAD,
I CAN SEE ALMOST ALL AROUND ME.
UH-OH, A PACK OF WOLVES!
(GROWLING)
Martin says OH NO, I GOTTA BE ON MY TOES...
I MEAN HOOFS...OUT HERE!
As he leaps away he runs into a busy road and stops.
He says UH-OH, WHOAAA!
WHEW. (LAUGHING)
AND DEER HAVE TO WATCH
OUT FOR CARS TOO!
WITH SO MANY DANGERS,
I’M STARTING TO
WONDER IF BUCKAROO
HAS EVEN SURVIVED THIS LONG.
He leaps back in the woods and BUCKAROO, WHERE ARE YOU!
Chris keeps looking for Buckaroo from the air and says EAGLE EYE ZOOM...ON.
THERE!
WHITE-TAILED DEER.
THEY’VE BEDDED DOWN, RESTING.
ALL FACING WITH THEIR BACKS
TO THE WIND. IT’S GENIUS.
THEIR 310 DEGREE VISION
WATCHES FOR PREDATORS
IN FRONT OF THEM
AND TO THE SIDES.
AND IF ANY PREDATOR TRIES
TO APPROACH FROM BEHIND,
ITS ODOR WILL BE CARRIED
BY THE WIND AND
DETECTED BY THE DEER’S
AMAZING SENSE OF SMELL.
He lands on a tree limb and says IT’S THE PERFECT 360 DEGREE
PREDATOR DETECTION PLAN.
UH-OH. I FORGOT.
EAGLES ARE DEER PREDATORS TOO,
ESPECIALLY YOUNG FAWNS.
NO, DON’T GO. I COME IN
PEACE. DEACTIVATE.
He morphs back to human form and says WHOAA.
PROBABLY SHOULDN’T HAVE
DEACTIVATED ON A TREE LIMB.
DIDN’T WANT TO SCARE THEM.
ESPECIALLY AFTER THAT SCARE WE
HAD WITH BUCKAROO WAY BACK THEN.
Back then, Martin says COME ON BUCKAROO,
HERE LITTLE DEER, THIS WAY.
Chris says WE’LL TAKE YOU RIGHT
BACK WHERE THEY FOUND YOU.
Aviva says OH NO, HE WANTS TO PLAY.
COME ON BUCKAROO...
IT’S NOT PLAYTIME.
Chris says YOU KNOW, A FAWN CAN
WALK AN HOUR AFTER HE’S BORN.
BUT IT TAKES SOME HUMAN BABIES
MORE THAN A YEAR TO DO THAT.
Martin says ALRIGHT BUCKAROO
WE’RE GETTING CLOSER.
KEEP COMING, KEEP
FOLLOWING US.
THAT’S RIGHT BUDDY.
The brothers spot an eagle coming for Buckaroo and say OH NO!
Chris jumps on Buckaroo to push him out of the eagle’s reach and says BUCKAROOO!
WHEW THAT WAS CLOSE.
Martin says GOOD ONE CHRIS.
Aviva says WAS THAT A GOLDEN EAGLE?
Chris says SURE WAS.
THEY’LL CATCH A DEER FAWN
IF THEY GET A CHANCE.
THAT’S WHY YOU NEED TO STAY
PUT WHEN MOM’S NOT AROUND.
Leo says HEY OVER HERE!
Martin says SO IS THIS
WHERE YOU FOUND HIM?
Leo says YEAH, THERE
IN THE TALL GRASS.
Martin says ALRIGHT!
THANKS LEO.
OKAY THERE.
SO IT’S BEST TO PUT HIM
EXACTLY WHERE YOU FOUND HIM.
THAT WAY HIS MOM
CAN FIND HIM AGAIN.
Chris says AND I’LL PUT THIS LITTLE
FLY CAM HERE SO WE CAN KEEP A
WATCHFUL EYE ON HIM AND
MAKE SURE HIS MOM COMES.
Aviva says GOODBYE LITTLE BUCKAROO.
IT WAS NICE GETTING TO KNOW YOU.
Leo says BYE BUCKIE!
Audrey says SAY HI TO
YOUR MOM FOR US.
At present, Chris says HER TAIL! SHE’S NERVOUS.
THAT’S WHY THEY’RE CALLED
WHITE-TAILED DEER.
THEY RAISE THAT WHITE
TAIL LIKE A WARNING FLAG,
TELLING OTHER MEMBERS
OF THE HERD
“DANGER’S AROUND. FOLLOW ME!”
I GOT TO TRANSFORM.
A squirrel approaches Chris.
Chris says OH HEY...SQUIRREL POWERS!
YA MIND?
ACTIVATE RED SQUIRREL POWERS!
He morphs into a squirrel and says TA-DA.
JUST ANOTHER HARMLESS
LITTLE SQUIRREL.
He climbs down the tree, approaches the pack and says OKAY... JUST AS I THOUGHT.
THIS IS A HERD OF
DOES AND THEIR YOUNG.
GENERALLY, FOR MOST OF THE
YEAR, DOES, THE FEMALE DEER,
STICK TOGETHER AWAY
FROM THE BUCKS.
RIGHT?
AND THE MALE DEER, THE BUCKS,
OFTEN GROUP UP SEPARATELY.
SO I’LL HAVE TO LOOK
FOR A HERD OF BUCKS,
IF WE’RE GOING TO FIND BUCKAROO.
Martin says BUCKAROO...
WHERE ARE YOU?
WHOA. I FEEL LIKE I’VE GOT TO
ATTACK THIS LITTLE TREE!!
He bucks his head against the tree and says TAKE THAT LITTLE
TREE... AND...THAT!
Aviva comes along riding the hover bike and says UH, MARTIN...WHY
ARE YOU ATTACKING THAT POOR,
DEFENSELESS, LITTLE TREE?
Martin says UH...I DON’T KNOW.
DEER INSTINCT I GUESS.
Aviva says WELL YOU’RE RUINING YOUR
ANTLERS. THEY’RE ALL TORN UP.
Martin says HUH? NO, NO.
THAT’S JUST THE
VELVET COMING OFF.
WHEN THE ANTLERS
ARE DONE GROWING,
DEER SCRAPE THE VELVET OFF
BY RUBBING TREES AND BUSHES.
SO I WAS ATTACKING THE TREE
TO GET TO MY SHINY ANTLERS!
Aviva says SO THE ANTLER
GROWTH IS COMPLETE! COOL!
(beep)
Aviva says IT’S CHRIS.
Chris says AVIVA! MARTIN! I FOUND
SOME BUCKS. COME QUICK!
I’M SENDING MY COORDINATES.
Martin says JUMP ON.
I CAN GET THERE FAST.
Aviva jumps on Martin’s back and says HERE WE COME BUCKAROO!
Chris says BUCKAROO! ARE YOU HERE?
YOU’RE NOT BUCKAROO.
YOU’RE TOO YOUNG.
JUDGING BY THE SIZE
OF YOUR ANTLERS,
YOU’RE ONLY ABOUT 1 YEAR OLD.
HAS ANYBODY SEEN A
BUCK WITH A FLOPPY EAR?
NOTHING. I’LL TRY OVER HERE.
OKAY YOU’RE THE BIGGEST
ONE, BUT STILL NOT BUCKAROO.
Martin says CHRIS! WE’RE HERE!
Chris says HEY. COOL DEER
POWER SUIT MARTIN.
Martin says THANKS BRO.
Chris says SO WE’VE GOT
A HERD FULL OF BUCKS,
BUT I CAN’T FIND
BUCKAROO ANYWHERE.
Aviva says NOWHERE?
Chris says I’VE BEEN WITH DOES, WITH
BUCKS ALL THROUGH THIS AREA.
AND NOTHING.
SEE THE BUCKS TEND TO GATHER
AT THIS TIME OF YEAR,
TO PROVE THEIR STRENGTH AND
DOMINANCE IN SPARRING MATCHES.
Martin says SPARRING MATCHES.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN.
HEY GUY’S HOW’S
IT GOING? I’M HERE.
Chris says IT’S LIKE A RITUAL,
EARS BACK, STIFF-LEGGED WALK,
SNORT WHEEZE SOUNDS,
ALL MEAN A CHALLENGE.
One of the deer in the pack gets ready to spar with Martin.
Martin says OH HI. WHAT’S UP BUCK?
COOL SOUND.
SO ARE WE GOING TO SPAR,
WHO WANTS TO SPAR?
OH. HEY... WHOA,
HEY... WHOA,
YOU’RE SERIOUS!
AHHH... HIS ANTLERS ARE SHARP!
AND HE HAS MORE
POINTS THAN I DO.
Chris says EACH BUCK WORKS
HIS WAY UP THE HIERARCHY
IN THESE SPARRING MATCHES.
Aviva says AND IT’S ALL TO
ATTRACT AND ACCESS THE DOES?
Chris says YUP. BUT BUCKAROO IS
JUST NOWHERE TO BE FOUND.
Aviva says MAYBE HE’S JUST
NOT AROUND ANYMORE.
Martin says WHOA...
Aviva says LIFE’S TOUGH FOR A DEER.
AND THEY ONLY LIVE TO ABOUT 6
YEARS OLD IN THE WILD RIGHT?
Chris says YEAH...
The deer throws Martin in the bushes.
Martin says WHOA...
Chris says IT’S A BATTLE OF
STRENGTH, LOCKING ANTLERS AND
PUSHING AND SHOVING THE OPPONENT
Martin says WHOA!
Chris says NOT ALL OF THEM
GET TO BE BIG BUCKS.
Aviva says AH...
I CAN’T STOP THINKING
OF THE LAST TIME WE SAW HIM.
Back then, Martin says LOOK! HERE COMES MOM.
Aviva says LOOK HOW CAREFULLY
SHE APPROACHES.
Chris says OH YEAH, SHE
WANTS TO MAKE SURE
SHE DOESN’T ACCIDENTALLY
LEAD A PREDATOR TO HER FAWN.
Martin says SO WHEN THE COAST IS
CLEAR, SHE REUNITES WITH HIM.
THEY’LL STICK TOGETHER
FOR A WHILE,
MAYBE MOVE TO A NEW HIDING SPOT,
THAT’S HOW IT WORKS FOR DEER.
Leo says AWWW. THEY’RE SO HAPPY.
Audrey says WE DID IT.
WE FIXED OUR MISTAKE.
Leo says AND WE’LL
ALWAYS REMEMBER...
The kids say IF YOU FIND
A FAWN, LEAVE IT ALONE.
Martin says GREAT JOB
WILD KRATTS TEAM!
Chris says LIVE A LONG HAPPY
LIFE, LITTLE BUCKAROO.
At this moment, Aviva says HE SURE WAS A CUTIE PIE.
Chris says YEAH, HE WAS
THE BEST, RIGHT MARTIN?
Martin says AHHA! OW!
Chris says UH-OH! USE
THOSE ANTLERS BRO!
The deer corners him against a tree.
Martin says I’M TRYING...
OKAY, OKAY, YOU WIN...
I GIVE...I GIVE!
[LOUD HISS]
They spot another deer behind them.
Martin says UH-OH.
IS IT?
Aviva says COULD IT BE?
Chris says IT IS! WE
FINALLY FOUND HIM.
Chris and Aviva say BUCKAROO!
Martin says WHEW, BUCKAROO
TO THE RESCUE.
Chris says AND NOW HE’S
CHALLENGED THAT GUY.
Martin says TWO BUCKS IN THEIR
PRIME, READY FOR BATTLE.
Aviva says I HOPE BUCKAROO’S
READY FOR THIS.
Chris says WOW BUCKAROO IS MASSIVE.
Martin says YEAH HE IS, BUT THAT
OTHER BUCK IS STRONG TOO.
BELIEVE ME.
Aviva says THEY’RE SO
EVENLY MATCHED.
WHAT HAPPENS IF NEITHER
ONE BACKS DOWN?
The deer start fighting.
Chris says WHOA!
Martin says SOMETIMES MAJOR BATTLES
LIKE THIS END IN DEATH, WITH ONE
DEER SO WOUNDED FROM THE FIGHT
THAT HE JUST DOESN’T SURVIVE.
Aviva says MOST OF THE TIME
SOMEONE BACKS DOWN RIGHT?
Chris says YEAH, MOST OF THE TIME.
Martin says OOO! BUCKAROO
HAS TAKEN CONTROL.
Chris says HE’S OVERPOWERING
THE OTHER BUCK.
Aviva says GO BUCKAROO!
YOU CAN DO IT!
Chris says WHOA, HEAD
TWIST AND THRUST!
BUCKAROO WINS! HE DID IT!
Aviva says YES!
Martin says WOO HOO!
BUCKAROOO...MY BOY!
DO YOU THINK HE REMEMBERS US?
Aviva says LET’S SEE.
DEACTIVATE GUYS.
They both deactivate and morph back to human.
Martin says HEY BUDDY.
IT’S US. THE WILD KRATTS.
Chris says WE CAME TO FIND YOU.
Buckaroo approaches them.
Martin says YEAH! BUCKAROO.
YOU DO REMEMBER US.
Chris says YEAH...YOU’VE DONE WELL.
GROWN BIG AND STRONG,
PAL. GOOD JOB!
Martin says LOOK, THE HERD OF DOES.
They all say BYE BUCKAROO!
Chris says GREAT SEEING YOU PAL.
Martin says WOW, NOW THAT’S A
CREATURE MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
Chris says OH YEAH. WE FOUND
OUR PAL AND HE’S DOING GREAT.
Martin says WE FOUND OUT A LOT
ABOUT WHITE-TAILED DEER.
Aviva says AND WE INVENTED A
BRAND NEW WHITE-TAILED
DEER CREATURE POWER SUIT!
UH-OH.
The brothers now both morph into deer.
Martin says C’MON BRO.
ANTLER BATTLE!
Chris says OH HO. YOU’RE ON.
YOU LOOK SO EASY TO BEAT.
Martin says C’MON,
THAT GUY WAS TOUGH.
AND NOW I’M BATTLING YOU!
PLUS, I LEARNED SOME MOVES.
OOH...AHH...
Chris says OKAY BRING ‘EM ON BRO!
Aviva says COME ON GUYS!
Martin says GET READY FOR THE TWIST.
OH IT WORKED!
Aviva says OH YEAH!
Now the show turns back to real life.
Chris says SO WHITE-TAILED DEER
ARE SUPER ATHLETIC ANIMALS
WITH INCREDIBLE SENSES.
Martin says PLUS, AMAZING BEHAVIORS,
LIKE THOSE AWESOME
ANTLER BATTLES.
Chris says AND OF COURSE, SOME
OF THE CUTEST BABIES AROUND.
CHECK THIS OUT... I’M GOING
TO SHOW YOU A CLASSIC
WHITE-TAILED DEER BEHAVIOR.
UP HERE, HIDING IN THE
WOODS, RIGHT BEHIND ME,
IS A WHITE-TAILED DEER FAWN.
SITTING QUIETLY IN THE GRASS.
THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT THEY DO WHEN
THEIR MOTHERS GO OFF TO FORAGE.
THEIR MOTHERS PARK THE FAWNS AND
THEY’RE TRAINED TO JUST STAY
QUIETLY AND STILL USUALLY
WITH THEIR HEAD DOWN
SO NO PREDATORS CAN FIND THEM.
NOW HERE’S THE IMPORTANT THING,
IF YOU EVER FIND A FAWN RESTING
LIKE THAT, JUST LEAVE HER ALONE.
THAT FAWN IS NOT IN TROUBLE.
SHE’S DOING HER
NATURAL BEHAVIOR.
OH, SHE JUST GOT UP.
THERE’S HER MOM.
HER MOM IS COMING AND SHE’S
GETTING UP TO GREET HER.
HEY BUDDY. YOUR MOM’S
RIGHT BACK THERE.
THERE SHE GOES.
Martin says IT’S EASY TO TELL
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
A MALE DEER AND A FEMALE DEER.
THE FEMALE DEER HAVE NO
ANTLERS, THE MALES DO.
SO WHENEVER YOU SEE ANTLERS,
YOU KNOW THAT’S A MALE DEER.
OH ANOTHER THING YOU
CAN TELL ABOUT A DEER
BY THEIR ANTLERS IS AGE.
THE SMALLER THE ANTLER
THE YOUNGER THE DEER.
Chris says CHECK OUT THIS
BUCK RIGHT BEHIND ME.
YOU CAN SEE HIS
ANTLERS ARE GROWING,
THEY’VE GOT THAT
NICE VELVET ON THEM.
IT’S LATE SUMMER RIGHT NOW,
SO THEY’RE IN MID-GROWTH.
AND THAT VELVET IS LIKE A
SKIN-COVERING THAT FEEDS
THE GROWTH OF THE ANTLERS.
AND THOSE ANTLERS WILL GROW
UNTIL ABOUT SOMETIME IN THE FALL
WHEN THE VELVET WILL BE SHED OFF
AND YOU’LL SEE THE WHITE
BONY ANTLERS UNDERNEATH.
AND THEN THE RUT BEGINS, AND
THEY BEGIN BATTLING IN THOSE
AMAZING ANTLER BATTLES.
IT’S GREAT WHEN YOU CAN
UNDERSTAND THE CREATURES
THAT LIVE AROUND YOU.
Martin says OH YEAH.
SO GET TO KNOW YOUR
DEER NEIGHBORS
AND KEEP ON CREATURE
ADVENTURING.
Chris says WE’LL SEE YOU
ON THE CREATURE TRAIL.

Then, a globe spins and Southern Asia appears highlighted. A clip shows images of a green meadow with a wooded area.
The Kratt brothers appear. Chris wears a green shirt and Martin wears a blue shirt.
Martin says WE’RE HERE IN NORTH
AMERICA IN THE EASTERN
WOODLANDS AT PARC OMÉGA.
IT’S US THE KRATT BROTHERS.
Martin says I’M MARTIN...
Chris says I’M CHRIS.
AND MEADOWS AND FORESTS LIKE
THESE ARE THE PERFECT HOME
FOR THE GRACEFUL...
Martin says ATHLETIC...
Chris says INTELLIGENT...
The brothers say
WHITE-TAILED DEER.
Chris says WHITE-TAILED DEER
LIVE IN LOOSE HERDS
THAT MEANS THEY SOMETIMES BAND
TOGETHER IN GROUPS AND SOMETIMES
THEY CAN GO OFF
ON THEIR OWN TOO.
Martin point at a deer and says THAT GUY IS SHOWING US
WHY THIS SPECIES OF DEER
IS CALLED A WHITE-TAIL.
DID YOU SEE THE FUR
UNDERNEATH THE TAIL IS WHITE.
NOW WHITE-TAILED DEER RAISE
THAT AS A FLAG TO GIVE AN ALARM
SAYING TO ALL THE OTHER DEER
IN THE HERD, THERE’S DANGER,
GET READY YOU MIGHT HAVE TO RUN.
Chris says DEER HAVE INCREDIBLE
SENSORY CREATURE POWERS.
THE EYES ON THE SIDES OF THEIR
HEAD GIVE THEM AMAZING VISION.
THE ONLY PART THEY CAN’T
SEE IS DIRECTLY BEHIND THEM.
SO THEY’LL USUALLY STAND
WITH THEIR BACKS
AGAINST THE ON COMING WIND.
THAT WAY ANY PREDATOR
SNEAKING UP,
THEIR SCENT WILL
COME WITH THE WIND
AND THEY’LL BE ABLE
TO DETECT THEM BEHIND THEM.
INCREDIBLE.
Martin says WHITE-TAILED
FAWNS, LIKE THIS GUY,
HAVE AMAZING CREATURE POWERS.
CAN YOU BELIEVE 20
MINUTES AFTER HE WAS BORN
HE COULD ALREADY STAND UP.
AND THEN IN ONE
HOUR HE WAS WALKING.
AND AFTER FIVE DAYS HE
WAS RUNNING ALREADY!
Chris says IMAGINE GROWING UP AS
A LITTLE WHITE-TAILED DEER.
WHAT WOULD LIFE BE LIKE FOR YOU?
Martin says WHAT WOULD IT BE LIKE TO
HAVE THE WHITE-TAILED DEER’S
SPECIAL SKILLS AND
AMAZING ATHLETIC ABILITY.
Chris says IMAGINE IF
WE COULD FIND OUT.
Martin says IMAGINE IF WE HAD
WHITE-TAILED DEER POWER.
They both say WHAT IF!
The brothers jump and turn into cartoons. In animation, a paw print appears, followed by a map, and then the brothers swim under the sea and swing from jungle vines.
A song plays and says ON ADVENTURE WITH THE COOLEST CREATURES, FROM THE OCEANS TO THE TREES, THE BROTHERS KRATT ARE GOING PLACES YOU NEVER GET TO SEE, HANGING WITH THEIR CREATURE FRIENDS. GET READY, IT’S THE HOUR, WE’RE GONNA SAVE SOME ANIMALS TODAY WITH CREATURE POWER! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD!
Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy Z send them creature disks from Tortuga, the ship. The brothers place the disks in their suits and morph into superheroes with animal legs and wings. Then, they run, swim and fly with animals in the wild.
The song continues
CHEETAH SPEED AND LIZARD GLIDE, FALCON FLIGHT AND LION PRIDE, GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS! GONNA GO WILD, WILD KRATTS, GONNA GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS. GO WILD, WILD, WILD KRATTS!
The name of the episode appears. It reads “Deer buckeroo.”
Koki and Aviva play football outside.
Koki says NOTHING LIKE A GAME OF
CATCH ON A BEAUTIFUL FALL DAY.
Aviva says YOU SAID IT!
IT’S A GOOD BREAK
FROM INVENTING TOO!
Aviva throws the ball really far and it lands in the bushes.
Koki says HEY!
Aviva says OOPS. A LITTLE TOO
MUCH MUSTARD ON THAT ONE.
Koki goes get the ball and says YA THINK?
WHOA, AVIVA LOOK!
A pair of antlers come of the bushes.
Aviva says HUH? WHAT?
Koki says ANTLERS IN THE BUSHES.
Aviva says I DON’T BELIEVE IT.
A DEER.
The deer throws the ball back to Aviva.
Aviva says THAT CAN THROW?
Koki says THAT’S ONE AMAZING DEER.
Martin comes out of the bushes, take the antlers off his head and says THANKS. GLAD
YOU THINK I’M AMAZING.
GOT YA! (LAUGHING)
Koki says WE SHOULD’VE KNOWN.
Aviva says OH DEER...
Martin says I FOUND THESE DEER
ANTLERS IN THE WOODS.
I’D KNEW IT’D BE
GOOD FOR A LAUGH.
DID YOU SEE THAT? CHRIS..
CHRIS?
Chris says YEAH...FUNNY...
Aviva says WHY SO GLUM?
Martin says WHAT’S WRONG BRO?
Chris says OH, WELL...I WAS JUST
LOOKING AT OLD PICTURES ON MY
CREATUREPOD AND FOUND SOME
OF A LONG LOST PAL OF OURS.
REMEMBER THIS LITTLE
WHITE-TAILED DEER FAWN?
Martin says LITTLE BUCKAROO.
HOW COULD I FORGET?
Aviva says OF COURSE, SUCH A CUTIE.
Koki says HE WAS SPECIAL.
Chris says YEAH, WE HAVEN’T SEEN
HIM SINCE WAY BACK THEN.
YOU KNOW HE’D BE FOUR
AND-A-HALF YEARS OLD NOW.
Martin says I WONDER HOW
OUR BUDDY IS DOING?
Aviva says DO YOU THINK
HE’S STILL OUT THERE
SOMEWHERE IN THESE WOODS?
Chris says I DON’T KNOW, BUT I
REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME
WE MET HIM LIKE
IT WAS YESTERDAY.
Chris and Martin take a walk on agreen meadow.
Martin says AHHH... SPRING TIME
IN THE TEMPERATE FOREST.
Martin says ONE OF MY
FAVORITE TIMES.
FLOWERS BLOOMING.
BABY ANIMALS EVERYWHERE.
OH AND...
Chris says STOP! DON’T MOVE.
Martin says TRYING NOT TO.
BUT WHY?
Chris says BECAUSE LOOK.
A CUTE LITTLE FAWN.
Martin says A WHITE-TAILED
DEER FAWN.
JUST A FEW DAYS OLD. YOU’RE
DOING A GOOD JOB, BUDDY.
KEEPING STILL AND MOTIONLESS
WHILE YOUR MOM’S OFF FEEDING.
Chris says YEAH, EXACTLY WHAT A
DEER FAWN IS SUPPOSED TO DO.
AND WE’LL LEAVE YOU
ALONE LITTLE PAL,
SO WE DON’T GIVE AWAY
YOUR HIDING SPOT.
They spot a fox approaching.
The brothers say UH-OH...
Martin says NOW THAT’S A DEER
FAWN’S HIDING POWER IN ACTION.
Chris says YUP. SPOTS
FOR CAMOUFLAGE.
AND FAWNS HAVE VIRTUALLY
NO SCENT AT ALL.
SO THEY’RE REALLY
HARD FOR A PREDATOR
TO SNIFF OUT AND FIND.
Martin says BUT LOOK.
Mom deer approaches.
Martin says MOM ALWAYS KNOWS WHERE HE IS.
Chris says THAT’S WHY IT’S SO
IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO LEAVE
FAWNS ALONE IF YOU FIND THEM.
THEY MAY LOOK LOST OR ORPHANED,
BUT THEY’RE NOT,
MOM IS NEVER FAR AWAY.
Martin says HE’S A LITTLE
BUCK CHRIS, A BOY DEER.
I’LL NAME HIM BUCKAROO,
THE CUTEST LITTLE
DEER IN THE WORLD.
Chris says LITTLE DID WE KNOW
THAT WOULDN’T BE THE LAST
TIME WE SAW OUR PAL.
Martin says YEAH THAT WAS
JUST THE BEGINNING OF OUR
ADVENTURE WITH BUCKAROO.
Chris says AW I SURE MISS HIM.
Martin sighs and says ME TOO.
Aviva says WELL THEN, WHY
ARE YOU SITTING THERE
LOOKING AT HIS PICTURE?
YOU SHOULD GET OUT
THERE AND FIND HIM!
Koki says IF ANYBODY CAN
FIND HIM, YOU GUYS CAN.
Chris says WELL HE’D BE A
FULL-GROWN BUCK NOW.
Martin says HE’D LOOK
TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
Chris says BUT WE’D
RECOGNIZE HIM ANYWAY.
Martin says OF COURSE WE WOULD.
Aviva says DID HE HAVE ANY
DISTINGUISHING MARKINGS?
Chris says HE DID HAVE
THAT ONE FLOPPY EAR.
Martin says LET’S DO IT. LET’S
FIND THE LITTLE BUCKAROO!
MAYBE BIG BUCKAROO NOW.
Chris says WE CAN SPLIT UP.
I’LL SEARCH BY AIR,
WITH BALD EAGLE POWER!
(WHISTLES)
He whistles and an eagle flies in.
He climbs up the roof of the Tortuga and says INSERT CREATURE POWER DISC!
TOUCH BALD EAGLE!
ACTIVATE BALD EAGLE POWER!
WOOHOO!
He morphs into an eagle.
Martin says AND I’LL SEE IF
I CAN FIND HIM WITH DEER
INSTINCT AND KNOW HOW.
CAN WE USE THIS TO START
PROGRAMMING A DEER POWER SUIT?
Aviva says I THINK I CAN DO THAT.
Koki says AND I’LL SEND AN ALERT TO
WILD KRATTS KIDS TO SEE IF THEY
HAVE ANY LOCAL INTEL
ON WHITE-TAILED DEER.
Martin says LET’S DO THIS GANG!
LET’S FIND BUCKAROO!
Koki and Aviva say YEAH!
Hovering over the field, Chris says WITH BALD EAGLE
POWERS OF KEEN EYESIGHT
AND A BIRD’S EYE VIEW,
I SHOULD BE ABLE TO SPOT
SOME DEER. ONE DEER CAN HAVE
A HOME RANGE OF MORE THAN
500 ACRES OF WOODS, FIELDS,
AND EVEN HUMAN NEIGHBORHOODS.
WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY BUCKAROO
SHOWED UP A SECOND TIME.
Back then, Aviva, Martin and Chris plant dogwood seedlings.
Aviva says SO WHY DID YOU GUYS
WANT TO PLANT THESE DOGWOOD
SEEDLINGS SO BADLY?
Chris says IT’S ONE OF THE FAVORITE
FOODS OF THE WHITE-TAILED DEER.
GREAT FOR COVER TOO.
Martin says WE MET THE CUTEST
LITTLE FAWN TODAY.
SO WE THOUGHT WE’D HELP
THE DEER OUT A LITTLE BIT.
Aviva says COOL.
LOOK AT HOW MANY
WE PLANTED SO FAR.
Leo and Audrey come along dragging a wagon.
Leo says CHRIS! MARTIN! AVIVA!
WE NEED YOUR HELP.
Audrey says WITH A CREATURE RESCUE.
Martin says HEY AUDREY,
LEO, WHAT’S GOING ON?
Leo says WE FOUND AN
ANIMAL IN TROUBLE,
SO WE BROUGHT HIM TO YOU.
The brothers say BUCKAROO!
Audrey says HE WAS ALL
ALONE IN A FIELD.
Martin says UM...UH...
OKAY, YOU KIDS
ARE GREAT FOR WANTING
TO HELP ANIMALS...BUT...
Chris says SOMETIMES
ANIMALS MAY SEEM LIKE
THEY’RE IN TROUBLE...
BUT THEY’RE REALLY NOT.
Leo says WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
Martin says IT’S NATURAL
FOR A FAWN TO BE ALONE
IN THE GRASS OR THE WOODS.
Audrey says IT IS?
Chris says IT SURE IS.
SO THE BEST THING TO DO
IS LEAVE THE FAWN ALONE
AND HIS MOTHER WILL COME BACK.
Leo says OH NO. WE
MADE A BIG MISTAKE.
Audrey says WE’RE SORRY. WE
WERE ONLY TRYING TO HELP.
Aviva says WE KNOW. AND DON’T WORRY.
TOGETHER WE CAN FIX
THIS, RIGHT GUYS?
Martin says RIGHT. WE’LL
GET HIM BACK TO HIS MOM.
AND IN THE MEANTIME, WE KNOW
EXACTLY HOW TO CARE FOR HIM.
Chris says WE SURE DO.
Chris feeds him with a bottle and says WITH SPECIAL FAWN
MILK TO TIDE HIM OVER.
Leo says COOL!
Audrey says AWESOME!
Martin says I REALLY HOPE WE CAN
GET THIS GUY BACK TO HIS MOM.
Chris says I KNOW. WE’VE GOT TO TRY.
Now in the air, Chris says FINDING A CERTAIN
INDIVIDUAL DEER ISN’T EASY.
EVEN THOUGH WHITE-TAILED
DEER ARE THE MOST COMMON
LARGE MAMMAL IN NORTH AMERICA.
In a backyard, Jenny says CHRIS! DOWN HERE!
Chris says COMING DOWN JENNY!
HEY...
Jenny says CHRIS, WE
JUST GOT KOKI’S MESSAGE.
THERE’S A PLACE NEAR HERE
WHERE THERE’S LOTS OF DEER.
Nolan says THERE’S SO MUCH
SUMAC FOR THE DEER TO EAT.
IT’S THAT WAY.
OVER THAT HILL.
Chris says THANKS NOLAN,
I’LL CHECK IT OUT!
Jenny says BYE!
Nolan says GOOD LUCK!!
At the Tortuga, Aviva says OKAY, WE’RE ALMOST THERE.
ONE LAST THING TO PROGRAM.
I’M GOING TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE
A BIG FULL RACK, ISN’T
THAT WHAT YOU CALL IT?
Martin says OH YEAH!
GREAT. I’M READY.
Aviva says AND.. PRINT WHITE-
TAILED DEER POWERDISC.
CATCH.
Martin catches the disc and says INSERT
CREATURE POWER DISC..
TOUCH DEER OR ANTLER...
AND ACTIVATE WHITE-TAILED
DEER POWER!
He morphs into a strange looking deer and says WOW! I FEEL GRACEFUL
AND DEER LIKE.
Aviva says MOMENTITO, SOMETHING
DOESN’T LOOK LIKE A DEER.
Martin says WHAT? HORNS!
WHO EVER HEARD OF
A DEER WITH HORNS!
Aviva says UH-OH THERE MUST HAVE
BEEN MISTAKE IN THE PROGRAMMING
MODULE I CONNECTED TO.
Martin says DEER DON’T HAVE
HORNS. THEY HAVE ANTLERS.
Jimmy says EH, HORNS. ANTLERS.
WHAT’S THE DIFF?
Martin says THAT’S LIKE SAYING
THERE’S NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
A BASEBALL AND A TENNIS BALL.
HORNS AND ANTLERS ARE DIFFERENT.
Jimmy says THAT DIFFERENT?
Koki says YEAH. LOOK HERE JIMMY.
HORNS GROW CONTINUOUSLY
THROUGHOUT THE BUFFALO’S LIFE.
THEY ARE FED BY BLOOD
VESSELS AND GROWTH PLATES
IN THE CORE OF THE HORN.
THEY NEVER FALL OFF OR SHED.
Martin says ANTLERS, ON THE OTHER
HAND, ARE FED BY BLOOD VESSELS
IN THE OUTER COATING,
CALLED VELVET.
AND THE AMAZING THING IS,
DEER GROW A NEW SET
OF ANTLERS EVERY YEAR.
THEY START GROWING
IN THE SPRING
AND THEN SOMETIME IN THE WINTER,
AUTOMATICALLY FALL OFF.
Jimmy says THEY HIT THE
OLD ANTLER EJECT BUTTON.
Martin says WELL SORT OF.
THAT WAY THEY DON’T
HAVE TO CARRY
THESE ANTLERS AROUND ALL YEAR.
AND THEN IN THE NEW YEAR,
A DEER’S ANTLERS GROW
TO AN EVEN LARGER SIZE.
Jimmy says BUT WHY
GROW ANTLERS AT ALL?
Martin says WELL LET’S GET ANTLERS
ON THIS CREATURE POWER SUIT
AND I’LL SHOW YOU.
Aviva says ON IT!
I NEED DOWNLOAD
A FEW ADJUSTMENTS
BASED ON THE DNA CODE.
OKAY, ALL SET.
AAAND...THERE!
I JUST NEED TO
RESTART THE UPDATE.
Horns retract and antlers come out.
Martin says NOW THAT’S
MORE LIKE IT!
AN EIGHT POINT RACK. COOL!
I’M OUTTA HERE!
THANKS AVIVAAAA!
In the woods, Martin says WOW, 9 METER LEAPS!
50 KILOMETERS
PER HOUR TOP SPEED!
AND MY SENSES.
I CAN HEAR REALLY WELL...
(SNIFFS) SMELL THINGS
LIKE NEVER BEFORE.
(SNIFFS) SOMETHING’S BEHIND ME.
A BLACK BEAR!
NOT SO FAST, BUDDY.
The bear roars and Martin says WHOA! SMELL YA LATER!
He leaps away and says WHEW.
THIS 310 DEGREE DEER
VISION IS AWESOME TOO.
WITH EYES ON EACH
SIDE OF MY HEAD,
I CAN SEE ALMOST ALL AROUND ME.
UH-OH, A PACK OF WOLVES!
(GROWLING)
Martin says OH NO, I GOTTA BE ON MY TOES...
I MEAN HOOFS...OUT HERE!
As he leaps away he runs into a busy road and stops.
He says UH-OH, WHOAAA!
WHEW. (LAUGHING)
AND DEER HAVE TO WATCH
OUT FOR CARS TOO!
WITH SO MANY DANGERS,
I’M STARTING TO
WONDER IF BUCKAROO
HAS EVEN SURVIVED THIS LONG.
He leaps back in the woods and BUCKAROO, WHERE ARE YOU!
Chris keeps looking for Buckaroo from the air and says EAGLE EYE ZOOM...ON.
THERE!
WHITE-TAILED DEER.
THEY’VE BEDDED DOWN, RESTING.
ALL FACING WITH THEIR BACKS
TO THE WIND. IT’S GENIUS.
THEIR 310 DEGREE VISION
WATCHES FOR PREDATORS
IN FRONT OF THEM
AND TO THE SIDES.
AND IF ANY PREDATOR TRIES
TO APPROACH FROM BEHIND,
ITS ODOR WILL BE CARRIED
BY THE WIND AND
DETECTED BY THE DEER’S
AMAZING SENSE OF SMELL.
He lands on a tree limb and says IT’S THE PERFECT 360 DEGREE
PREDATOR DETECTION PLAN.
UH-OH. I FORGOT.
EAGLES ARE DEER PREDATORS TOO,
ESPECIALLY YOUNG FAWNS.
NO, DON’T GO. I COME IN
PEACE. DEACTIVATE.
He morphs back to human form and says WHOAA.
PROBABLY SHOULDN’T HAVE
DEACTIVATED ON A TREE LIMB.
DIDN’T WANT TO SCARE THEM.
ESPECIALLY AFTER THAT SCARE WE
HAD WITH BUCKAROO WAY BACK THEN.
Back then, Martin says COME ON BUCKAROO,
HERE LITTLE DEER, THIS WAY.
Chris says WE’LL TAKE YOU RIGHT
BACK WHERE THEY FOUND YOU.
Aviva says OH NO, HE WANTS TO PLAY.
COME ON BUCKAROO...
IT’S NOT PLAYTIME.
Chris says YOU KNOW, A FAWN CAN
WALK AN HOUR AFTER HE’S BORN.
BUT IT TAKES SOME HUMAN BABIES
MORE THAN A YEAR TO DO THAT.
Martin says ALRIGHT BUCKAROO
WE’RE GETTING CLOSER.
KEEP COMING, KEEP
FOLLOWING US.
THAT’S RIGHT BUDDY.
The brothers spot an eagle coming for Buckaroo and say OH NO!
Chris jumps on Buckaroo to push him out of the eagle’s reach and says BUCKAROOO!
WHEW THAT WAS CLOSE.
Martin says GOOD ONE CHRIS.
Aviva says WAS THAT A GOLDEN EAGLE?
Chris says SURE WAS.
THEY’LL CATCH A DEER FAWN
IF THEY GET A CHANCE.
THAT’S WHY YOU NEED TO STAY
PUT WHEN MOM’S NOT AROUND.
Leo says HEY OVER HERE!
Martin says SO IS THIS
WHERE YOU FOUND HIM?
Leo says YEAH, THERE
IN THE TALL GRASS.
Martin says ALRIGHT!
THANKS LEO.
OKAY THERE.
SO IT’S BEST TO PUT HIM
EXACTLY WHERE YOU FOUND HIM.
THAT WAY HIS MOM
CAN FIND HIM AGAIN.
Chris says AND I’LL PUT THIS LITTLE
FLY CAM HERE SO WE CAN KEEP A
WATCHFUL EYE ON HIM AND
MAKE SURE HIS MOM COMES.
Aviva says GOODBYE LITTLE BUCKAROO.
IT WAS NICE GETTING TO KNOW YOU.
Leo says BYE BUCKIE!
Audrey says SAY HI TO
YOUR MOM FOR US.
At present, Chris says HER TAIL! SHE’S NERVOUS.
THAT’S WHY THEY’RE CALLED
WHITE-TAILED DEER.
THEY RAISE THAT WHITE
TAIL LIKE A WARNING FLAG,
TELLING OTHER MEMBERS
OF THE HERD
“DANGER’S AROUND. FOLLOW ME!”
I GOT TO TRANSFORM.
A squirrel approaches Chris.
Chris says OH HEY...SQUIRREL POWERS!
YA MIND?
ACTIVATE RED SQUIRREL POWERS!
He morphs into a squirrel and says TA-DA.
JUST ANOTHER HARMLESS
LITTLE SQUIRREL.
He climbs down the tree, approaches the pack and says OKAY... JUST AS I THOUGHT.
THIS IS A HERD OF
DOES AND THEIR YOUNG.
GENERALLY, FOR MOST OF THE
YEAR, DOES, THE FEMALE DEER,
STICK TOGETHER AWAY
FROM THE BUCKS.
RIGHT?
AND THE MALE DEER, THE BUCKS,
OFTEN GROUP UP SEPARATELY.
SO I’LL HAVE TO LOOK
FOR A HERD OF BUCKS,
IF WE’RE GOING TO FIND BUCKAROO.
Martin says BUCKAROO...
WHERE ARE YOU?
WHOA. I FEEL LIKE I’VE GOT TO
ATTACK THIS LITTLE TREE!!
He bucks his head against the tree and says TAKE THAT LITTLE
TREE... AND...THAT!
Aviva comes along riding the hover bike and says UH, MARTIN...WHY
ARE YOU ATTACKING THAT POOR,
DEFENSELESS, LITTLE TREE?
Martin says UH...I DON’T KNOW.
DEER INSTINCT I GUESS.
Aviva says WELL YOU’RE RUINING YOUR
ANTLERS. THEY’RE ALL TORN UP.
Martin says HUH? NO, NO.
THAT’S JUST THE
VELVET COMING OFF.
WHEN THE ANTLERS
ARE DONE GROWING,
DEER SCRAPE THE VELVET OFF
BY RUBBING TREES AND BUSHES.
SO I WAS ATTACKING THE TREE
TO GET TO MY SHINY ANTLERS!
Aviva says SO THE ANTLER
GROWTH IS COMPLETE! COOL!
(beep)
Aviva says IT’S CHRIS.
Chris says AVIVA! MARTIN! I FOUND
SOME BUCKS. COME QUICK!
I’M SENDING MY COORDINATES.
Martin says JUMP ON.
I CAN GET THERE FAST.
Aviva jumps on Martin’s back and says HERE WE COME BUCKAROO!
Chris says BUCKAROO! ARE YOU HERE?
YOU’RE NOT BUCKAROO.
YOU’RE TOO YOUNG.
JUDGING BY THE SIZE
OF YOUR ANTLERS,
YOU’RE ONLY ABOUT 1 YEAR OLD.
HAS ANYBODY SEEN A
BUCK WITH A FLOPPY EAR?
NOTHING. I’LL TRY OVER HERE.
OKAY YOU’RE THE BIGGEST
ONE, BUT STILL NOT BUCKAROO.
Martin says CHRIS! WE’RE HERE!
Chris says HEY. COOL DEER
POWER SUIT MARTIN.
Martin says THANKS BRO.
Chris says SO WE’VE GOT
A HERD FULL OF BUCKS,
BUT I CAN’T FIND
BUCKAROO ANYWHERE.
Aviva says NOWHERE?
Chris says I’VE BEEN WITH DOES, WITH
BUCKS ALL THROUGH THIS AREA.
AND NOTHING.
SEE THE BUCKS TEND TO GATHER
AT THIS TIME OF YEAR,
TO PROVE THEIR STRENGTH AND
DOMINANCE IN SPARRING MATCHES.
Martin says SPARRING MATCHES.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN.
HEY GUY’S HOW’S
IT GOING? I’M HERE.
Chris says IT’S LIKE A RITUAL,
EARS BACK, STIFF-LEGGED WALK,
SNORT WHEEZE SOUNDS,
ALL MEAN A CHALLENGE.
One of the deer in the pack gets ready to spar with Martin.
Martin says OH HI. WHAT’S UP BUCK?
COOL SOUND.
SO ARE WE GOING TO SPAR,
WHO WANTS TO SPAR?
OH. HEY... WHOA,
HEY... WHOA,
YOU’RE SERIOUS!
AHHH... HIS ANTLERS ARE SHARP!
AND HE HAS MORE
POINTS THAN I DO.
Chris says EACH BUCK WORKS
HIS WAY UP THE HIERARCHY
IN THESE SPARRING MATCHES.
Aviva says AND IT’S ALL TO
ATTRACT AND ACCESS THE DOES?
Chris says YUP. BUT BUCKAROO IS
JUST NOWHERE TO BE FOUND.
Aviva says MAYBE HE’S JUST
NOT AROUND ANYMORE.
Martin says WHOA...
Aviva says LIFE’S TOUGH FOR A DEER.
AND THEY ONLY LIVE TO ABOUT 6
YEARS OLD IN THE WILD RIGHT?
Chris says YEAH...
The deer throws Martin in the bushes.
Martin says WHOA...
Chris says IT’S A BATTLE OF
STRENGTH, LOCKING ANTLERS AND
PUSHING AND SHOVING THE OPPONENT
Martin says WHOA!
Chris says NOT ALL OF THEM
GET TO BE BIG BUCKS.
Aviva says AH...
I CAN’T STOP THINKING
OF THE LAST TIME WE SAW HIM.
Back then, Martin says LOOK! HERE COMES MOM.
Aviva says LOOK HOW CAREFULLY
SHE APPROACHES.
Chris says OH YEAH, SHE
WANTS TO MAKE SURE
SHE DOESN’T ACCIDENTALLY
LEAD A PREDATOR TO HER FAWN.
Martin says SO WHEN THE COAST IS
CLEAR, SHE REUNITES WITH HIM.
THEY’LL STICK TOGETHER
FOR A WHILE,
MAYBE MOVE TO A NEW HIDING SPOT,
THAT’S HOW IT WORKS FOR DEER.
Leo says AWWW. THEY’RE SO HAPPY.
Audrey says WE DID IT.
WE FIXED OUR MISTAKE.
Leo says AND WE’LL
ALWAYS REMEMBER...
The kids say IF YOU FIND
A FAWN, LEAVE IT ALONE.
Martin says GREAT JOB
WILD KRATTS TEAM!
Chris says LIVE A LONG HAPPY
LIFE, LITTLE BUCKAROO.
At this moment, Aviva says HE SURE WAS A CUTIE PIE.
Chris says YEAH, HE WAS
THE BEST, RIGHT MARTIN?
Martin says AHHA! OW!
Chris says UH-OH! USE
THOSE ANTLERS BRO!
The deer corners him against a tree.
Martin says I’M TRYING...
OKAY, OKAY, YOU WIN...
I GIVE...I GIVE!
[LOUD HISS]
They spot another deer behind them.
Martin says UH-OH.
IS IT?
Aviva says COULD IT BE?
Chris says IT IS! WE
FINALLY FOUND HIM.
Chris and Aviva say BUCKAROO!
Martin says WHEW, BUCKAROO
TO THE RESCUE.
Chris says AND NOW HE’S
CHALLENGED THAT GUY.
Martin says TWO BUCKS IN THEIR
PRIME, READY FOR BATTLE.
Aviva says I HOPE BUCKAROO’S
READY FOR THIS.
Chris says WOW BUCKAROO IS MASSIVE.
Martin says YEAH HE IS, BUT THAT
OTHER BUCK IS STRONG TOO.
BELIEVE ME.
Aviva says THEY’RE SO
EVENLY MATCHED.
WHAT HAPPENS IF NEITHER
ONE BACKS DOWN?
The deer start fighting.
Chris says WHOA!
Martin says SOMETIMES MAJOR BATTLES
LIKE THIS END IN DEATH, WITH ONE
DEER SO WOUNDED FROM THE FIGHT
THAT HE JUST DOESN’T SURVIVE.
Aviva says MOST OF THE TIME
SOMEONE BACKS DOWN RIGHT?
Chris says YEAH, MOST OF THE TIME.
Martin says OOO! BUCKAROO
HAS TAKEN CONTROL.
Chris says HE’S OVERPOWERING
THE OTHER BUCK.
Aviva says GO BUCKAROO!
YOU CAN DO IT!
Chris says WHOA, HEAD
TWIST AND THRUST!
BUCKAROO WINS! HE DID IT!
Aviva says YES!
Martin says WOO HOO!
BUCKAROOO...MY BOY!
DO YOU THINK HE REMEMBERS US?
Aviva says LET’S SEE.
DEACTIVATE GUYS.
They both deactivate and morph back to human.
Martin says HEY BUDDY.
IT’S US. THE WILD KRATTS.
Chris says WE CAME TO FIND YOU.
Buckaroo approaches them.
Martin says YEAH! BUCKAROO.
YOU DO REMEMBER US.
Chris says YEAH...YOU’VE DONE WELL.
GROWN BIG AND STRONG,
PAL. GOOD JOB!
Martin says LOOK, THE HERD OF DOES.
They all say BYE BUCKAROO!
Chris says GREAT SEEING YOU PAL.
Martin says WOW, NOW THAT’S A
CREATURE MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
Chris says OH YEAH. WE FOUND
OUR PAL AND HE’S DOING GREAT.
Martin says WE FOUND OUT A LOT
ABOUT WHITE-TAILED DEER.
Aviva says AND WE INVENTED A
BRAND NEW WHITE-TAILED
DEER CREATURE POWER SUIT!
UH-OH.
The brothers now both morph into deer.
Martin says C’MON BRO.
ANTLER BATTLE!
Chris says OH HO. YOU’RE ON.
YOU LOOK SO EASY TO BEAT.
Martin says C’MON,
THAT GUY WAS TOUGH.
AND NOW I’M BATTLING YOU!
PLUS, I LEARNED SOME MOVES.
OOH...AHH...
Chris says OKAY BRING ‘EM ON BRO!
Aviva says COME ON GUYS!
Martin says GET READY FOR THE TWIST.
OH IT WORKED!
Aviva says OH YEAH!
Now the show turns back to real life.
Chris says SO WHITE-TAILED DEER
ARE SUPER ATHLETIC ANIMALS
WITH INCREDIBLE SENSES.
Martin says PLUS, AMAZING BEHAVIORS,
LIKE THOSE AWESOME
ANTLER BATTLES.
Chris says AND OF COURSE, SOME
OF THE CUTEST BABIES AROUND.
CHECK THIS OUT... I’M GOING
TO SHOW YOU A CLASSIC
WHITE-TAILED DEER BEHAVIOR.
UP HERE, HIDING IN THE
WOODS, RIGHT BEHIND ME,
IS A WHITE-TAILED DEER FAWN.
SITTING QUIETLY IN THE GRASS.
THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT THEY DO WHEN
THEIR MOTHERS GO OFF TO FORAGE.
THEIR MOTHERS PARK THE FAWNS AND
THEY’RE TRAINED TO JUST STAY
QUIETLY AND STILL USUALLY
WITH THEIR HEAD DOWN
SO NO PREDATORS CAN FIND THEM.
NOW HERE’S THE IMPORTANT THING,
IF YOU EVER FIND A FAWN RESTING
LIKE THAT, JUST LEAVE HER ALONE.
THAT FAWN IS NOT IN TROUBLE.
SHE’S DOING HER
NATURAL BEHAVIOR.
OH, SHE JUST GOT UP.
THERE’S HER MOM.
HER MOM IS COMING AND SHE’S
GETTING UP TO GREET HER.
HEY BUDDY. YOUR MOM’S
RIGHT BACK THERE.
THERE SHE GOES.
Martin says IT’S EASY TO TELL
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
A MALE DEER AND A FEMALE DEER.
THE FEMALE DEER HAVE NO
ANTLERS, THE MALES DO.
SO WHENEVER YOU SEE ANTLERS,
YOU KNOW THAT’S A MALE DEER.
OH ANOTHER THING YOU
CAN TELL ABOUT A DEER
BY THEIR ANTLERS IS AGE.
THE SMALLER THE ANTLER
THE YOUNGER THE DEER.
Chris says CHECK OUT THIS
BUCK RIGHT BEHIND ME.
YOU CAN SEE HIS
ANTLERS ARE GROWING,
THEY’VE GOT THAT
NICE VELVET ON THEM.
IT’S LATE SUMMER RIGHT NOW,
SO THEY’RE IN MID-GROWTH.
AND THAT VELVET IS LIKE A
SKIN-COVERING THAT FEEDS
THE GROWTH OF THE ANTLERS.
AND THOSE ANTLERS WILL GROW
UNTIL ABOUT SOMETIME IN THE FALL
WHEN THE VELVET WILL BE SHED OFF
AND YOU’LL SEE THE WHITE
BONY ANTLERS UNDERNEATH.
AND THEN THE RUT BEGINS, AND
THEY BEGIN BATTLING IN THOSE
AMAZING ANTLER BATTLES.
IT’S GREAT WHEN YOU CAN
UNDERSTAND THE CREATURES
THAT LIVE AROUND YOU.
Martin says OH YEAH.
SO GET TO KNOW YOUR
DEER NEIGHBORS
AND KEEP ON CREATURE
ADVENTURING.
Chris says WE’LL SEE YOU
ON THE CREATURE TRAIL.
