Sometimes they’re white or gold and their paw goes up and down as if to say ‘come here and check out my cool store!’ The Maneki-neko is a lucky symbol in Japan, right across Asia and the world; all because of the tale of a cat, a big storm and a Japanese warrior.
Meet Buttercup, the most famous sloth in the world. This Costa Rican superstar has been on TV shows and has become the face of slick sloth merchandise. But did you know sloths were once thought of as horrible, dirty and lazy?
Buzzing bees equal friendship in the tiny European nation of Lithuania. In fact, when you call someone your best friend in Lithuanian you say my ‘bee friend’. And it’s all because of honey — yummy yummy get in my tummy honey!
In East Timor crocodiles aren’t seen as big scary animals that will try and take a bite out of your butt, they’re thought of as family. It’s all because of a really, really, old crocodile called Lafaek who changed the island of Timor forever.
Pull on your khaki pants and get ready for an adventure, because Animal Sound Safari is back with more weird and wacky episodes! We’re lazing over to Costa Rica to meet the most famous sloth in the world, flying to Mongolia to discover how vultures help dead people and buzzing to Lithuania to learn about bee BFFs.
