:07:01
I'll tell you from my experience
at Octopus Television...

:07:05
exactlywhat draws the biggest
audiences all over the world.

:07:13
Violence. Oh, yes.
:07:15
Mr. Sylvester Stallone
did not get where he is today...

:07:19
by playing inJane Austen.
:07:21
-What's that got to do with it?
-Therefore, in this zoo...

:07:23
we require only animals
that are potentiallyviolent.

:07:28
Fierce animals.
:07:30
All the rest, I'm afraid,
will have to go.

:07:33
What d'you mean, go?
:07:35
- We'll have to find them other homes.
- What? Outside the zoo?

:07:39
This zoo is dedicated
to conservation.

:07:41
- Yes.
- I am all in favor ofconservation...

:07:45
and the three things that I
want to conserve are this zoo...

:07:48
yourjobs and fierce animals.
:07:51
He barges in here without
the slightest idea ofwhat--

:07:54
- You two don't seem very upset.
- We are, really.

:07:57
- Becauseyour animals are fierce?
- No, we think it's--

:07:59
- Diabolical.
- What does he mean by ''fierce''?

:08:02
A giraffe can kick a man's head off,
butyou wouldn't call them ''fierce.''

:08:05
It's the same
with sea lions and penguins.

:08:07
I mean, people don't think ofthem
as violent, but they can be killers.

:08:17
Why haveyou all gone quiet?
:08:22
Areyou trying to tell me
that coati is fierce?

:08:24
Please! This is a wild animal.
It's not domesticated.

:08:28
You take a libertywith one ofthese
things, they giveyou a very nasty nip.

:08:30
A safety pin would give me a nasty nip.
:08:34
I'll tell you what's fierce.
Fierce is biting the whole hand off.

:08:38
- The whole hand?
- Thankyou.

:08:40
It is all right
ifit wrenches the hand off?

:08:42
Oh, yes, fine.
:08:45
Lotterby, could I have
a word with you, please?

:08:48
- These areyour meerkats, correct?
- Don't do that, please, sir.

:08:51
- They go straight for the throat.
- This new plaque ofyours...

:08:55
says that they're known as
''The Piranhas ofthe Desert.''

:08:57
Is that right?
:08:58
They can strip a human
carcass in three minutes.
