27
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to crime Stories. Tell me your thoughts on animal heroes.

28
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: Why do they go unsung? Well, you know, you know,

29
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 1: we're all in the media, and you know, a lot

30
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: of times the the media likes to talk about negative

31
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: things of the animals, when you know it's just news.

32
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: People love animals since the beginning of time. Uh As

33
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: I tell people, you know, I don't know what the

34
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: prehistoric wolf look like and things like that, but is

35
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: things developed over the thousands, tens of millions of years whatever.

36
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 1: Then those animals became, you know, probably the food source

37
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: for many many people of cave people whoever was alive.

38
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: Then then of course those animals became uh more. The

39
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: word I use habituated, which means used to people. I mean,

40
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 1: you look at Diane Fosse, uh a new virtues of

41
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: a friend of mine, and I have a home in

42
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: Rwanda right next to Mountain Gulas where soon and I

43
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: have a home there two miles from the grillers live.

44
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: And you look back at history where the grillers were poached,

45
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: they were hunted for body parts and for food and

46
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: things like this. Um so as as cultures developed throughout

47
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: the world, way back from who knows, tens of thousand

48
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: millions of years ago, cultures developed. And that's what I

49
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: tell people. I have a saying real quickly touched the

50
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: heart to teach the mind. So when when I go

51
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: in too these countries all over the world, the film

52
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: and not just a film to talk to them about,

53
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: you know, taking care of conservation animals like the birds.

54
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: They might eat too many of other this and that,

55
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: and you talk to them about their lives. First the

56
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: people and then you can help the animals. I've always

57
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: learned this over the years of forty five years of

58
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: doing this. Did I go in to help people first

59
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: and then in turns helps the development of the animal world.

60
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: So that's what I do a great deal of. With

61
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: me is the renowned Jack Hannah, the director emeritus of

62
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: the world famous Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, and host of

63
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: Jack Canna's Into the Wild and Wild Countdown. Jane villa

64
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: As Mitchell, I will never forget. Oh man, I miss

65
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: you so much, Jles Mitchell, I will never forget. I

66
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: think it was youring top mom, Casey Anthony. We were

67
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: all down in Orlando and everyone was going to go

68
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: out to dinner one night and we ended up at

69
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: what was that place? Anyway, It was a steakhouse, and

70
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 1: I thought that Jane the Les Mitchell was going to

71
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: jump out of her skin. She by the time it

72
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: was all over, I was afraid to even have a

73
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: bowl of spinach. So, Jane les Mitchell, why is this

74
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 1: so important to you? If we love animals, don't eat them,

75
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: don't wear them. My belief system is that they're not commodities,

76
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: They're not things for us to use. Their individuals who

77
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 1: were entitled to their own lives, and that they have

78
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 1: so much more in common with us than they have

79
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: separating us. The animals that have central nervous systems, that

80
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: have high hearts. Here's anybody as a dog knows dog's dream,

81
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,239
Speaker 1: so do pigs. So we have so much in common

82
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: with these animals, And the truth is what's killing them

83
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 1: and by killing them were killing ourselves with heart disease

84
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: and cancer and many other diseases. So there's a way

85
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: now to live, and honestly, we can't sustain it, Nancy.

86
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: Animal agriculture is the leading cause of greenhouse gases, more

87
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: than all transportation combined. It's the leading cause of habitat destruction,

88
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: which makes it a leading cause of wildlife extinction. Why

89
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: because we're seven and a half billion people on this planet,

90
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: but we kill sixty to seventy billion animals that eat

91
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: a lot of food, So we have to destroy a

92
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: lot of forest to create crop land to feed sixty

93
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 1: to seventy billion animals. Many for me, a lot more

94
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: than leaders Janelas tell me about. Jane, Yes, thank you

95
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: for asking Nancy. When I left HL lynn Um, they

96
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: had graciously allowed me to do one animal story a week.

97
00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if they knew what they were getting into,

98
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: but I was able to cover many, many stories that

99
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: normally don't get national coverage. Jane, Can I just tell

100
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 1: you something? I would pass Jane in the hall and

101
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: should say awesome writings, Nance, And I'm like, Jane, you

102
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: gotta stop with the plastic bags. Okay, we know they're bad.

103
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,479
Speaker 1: I know they're bad. I don't think they realize that

104
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: you're getting in a lot more animal stories. And I'm

105
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: so proud of you. Jane unchained dot com. Thank you.

106
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: And it's as social it's a digital news network for

107
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: animal rights. We had almost sixteen million views on Facebook

108
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: this past year. We just added it up. Yeah, so

109

118
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: one dayabetes when he was two. Um it's an incurable,

119
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: non preventable, lifetime disease UM where his blood trigger. We

120
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: have to inject into when multiple times in the day

121
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: just to to keep him alive. UM. Without that, we

122
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: prick a finger every two to three hours. Okay, wait

123
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: a minute, Wait a minute, it's just so much, so fast.

124
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: I always say I'm drinking out of a fire hydra.

125
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: I can't take it all in. Your baby, your baby boy.

126
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: I have a boy and a girl. Jack. Can you

00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: believe it? Jane, I actually have children, my life long dream.

128
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: And I'm miserable because I can just see him walking

129
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: out the door to college. And how do they know

130
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: Mommy's going back to school. So I my my daughter

131
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 1: just had their twins, so their birthday parties are now

132
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: they have to be separate. Misery. My daughter had to

133
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: spend the night party and h one of her little

134
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: friends has diabetes and she has a monitor. It went

135
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: off all during the night, and I was so afraid

136
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 1: I would do something wrong. I kept reading the moms

137
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: text message instructions and oh, I was so worried. Um,

138
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: As it turned out, it was not, you know, hard

139
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: to do it all, but it is very You have

140
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: to do it. You have to stay on top of it.

141
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: I did it one night. You are telling me you

142
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 1: give your son injections throughout today just to keep him alive. Yes,

143
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: that's that's Um. The thing that I think a lot

144
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: of people don't really understand about diabetes is that Type

145
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: one diabetes especially is a twenty four hour disease, and

146
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: you I am trying to be a pancreas for him,

147
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,319
Speaker 1: and it's a very hard thing to do. And when

148
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: he was very little, he couldn't tell me how he felt,

149
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: if he felt off. Um, So we decided to research

150
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: all the technology, all the technology. We have a monitor,

151
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: we finger prick. But then we started we are an

152
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: animal lover family, and we started taking a minute. Guys,

153
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 1: go online and you gotta look at the picture of

154
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 1: what she's talking about. There's her beautiful baby boy. He's

155
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: asleep with a covers pulled up. There's a diabetes monitor.

156
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,239
Speaker 1: There's stuff sitting on the like a little pack folded out,

157
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: a medipack. You see her hand holding. The monitor has

158
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: fifty seven on it, and right beside it, it's a

159
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: dog that looks a lot like my little fat boy,

160
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: a little black dog looking up at the picture. And

161
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: this is on Facebook. Now go ahead, we I'm looking

162
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: at the picture right now. Tell me what happened. Well,

163
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: it was a typical night before bed. We always tested

164
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: his blood sugar, We calibrate his monitors, and then we

165
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: go to sleep. I set several alarms overnight, and there's

166
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: many things that can wake me up, either my the monitor,

167
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: my alarm clock, or Jedi. And the amazing thing about

168
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: Jedi is he's been with us for five years now,

169
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 1: ever since my son was three. Is he can sense right,

170
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: Jedi is my son's dog, and my son's name is Luke.

171
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: Oh my stars, I get it an English life this dog. Okay, Jane,

172
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: you have to go online. We're we're we've posted this

173
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: on crime online dot com. You gotta say this dog, Jane,

174
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 1: no stealing anymore pants. Okay, back to Jedi, go ahead. Um.

175
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: So we're Star Wars family. So Luke loves named him Jedi,

176
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: and um he has is. Luke calls him magic powers.

177
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 1: Jedi knows when he's going to drop or go his

178
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 1: blower to go high about twenty minutes before the meters

179
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: um and sometimes the meters take a long time to

180
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 1: catch up. But Jedi um they're still researching the actual chemical.

181
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: But Jedi can smell the changes in Luke's body. And

182
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: that night he um was laying on my feet and

183
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 1: his alert at night is to jump off the bed,

184
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: jumped back on the bed until I wake up. And

185
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: so that night I was asleep. Everything was fine. I

186
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: had tested his blood sugar like I do every night,

187
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: and I had an alarm set for midnight, but or

188
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: midnight and three, but it was between those alarms, and

189
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: yet I jumped up off the on the bed. It

190
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: took me a minute to wake up, because this is

191
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: every night. And then he laid on me, and I

192
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: got up, went to the kitchen like I always do,

193
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: got his kit tested him and he was fifty seven

194
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: and UM, which means I immediately had to wake him

195
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,439
Speaker 1: up and give him have him in Jess. Glucos What

196
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: does that mean? It means, That's what it says right there. Yeah,

197
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: the typical we all need glucose in ourselves to keep

198
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: our bodies going. It's the fuel for our bodies. And

199
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: typically most people run between seventy and one twenty that's

200
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: how much glucose they have in the cells. And below

201
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: seventy it starts to become dangerous. Um, you can have

202
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: a seizure, you can go into a coma. UM. Luke

203
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: feels miserable when he's low. It's he says, it feels

204
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 1: like a stone sinking into the ocean. Um, it's the

205
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: body shutting down because it doesn't have enough glucos and stars. Wait, wait, wait,

206
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: let me just take this in a moment with me.

207
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: Is Dory, who you can see the photo of her

208
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 1: little baby, Her angel in bed has type one diabetes.

209
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 1: You have it for life, and it can cause death.

210
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 1: Your body starts to shut down. I'm looking at this

211
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: shot of this beautiful angel and he would not be

212
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: alive today if it were not for the dog Jedi.

213
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,599
Speaker 1: And I'm looking at your post and you say that

214
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: already given him a glucose tab. What else could I do?

215
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: There's nothing, So in that moment, I'm waiting for his

216
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: leves sugar to come up, like I've done a thousand times,

217
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 1: and I'll do a thousand times more. And I feel

218
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: so alone in a world that doesn't understand what someone

219
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: with type one diabetes goes through on a daily basis.

220
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: And then that moment I see beside you as this

221
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 1: mom is standing there looking down on her son, wondering

222
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: what's happening, and there is Jedi right beside the bed. Yes,

223
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 1: I mean, I am so moved. If you could see

224
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: this photo, So tell me again, what did Jedi do

225
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,079
Speaker 1: to make you get up? You'd already given him is

226
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: you'd already taken care of your baby. What made the dog?

227
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: How did he get you awake to get in there? Um?

228
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: He doesn't stop. He gets, he lays on me, he'll

229
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 1: nudge me, he'll palm me. Um, he will do whatever

230
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: it takes to get my attention. We've been working with

231
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,359
Speaker 1: him for years and he alerts multiple times a day.

232
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: So for this particular one, he was not giving up

233
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: until I woke up. And you know, we're tired, and

234
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: so sometimes I looked at the meter and I the

235
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: meter said he was okay. So I didn't immediately jump,

236
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: but when he didn't give up, I got up and Um.

237
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: There have been several instances where he's found, he's alerted,

238
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: and Luke's been thirty or forty, and I don't some

239
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: of those would have been. Um, but I know that

240
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: Luke is healthier and happier, and he's here today because

241
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: of Jedi helping me do everything that I need to

242
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: do twenty four hours a day to keep to keep Luke,

243
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: you know, happy and here, and Um, Jedi is is

244
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: always there for me. Um. It's an extra companion and

245
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: extra layer of support to help take care of Luke.

246
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: And I'm forever indebted to him. To Jack Hannah, director

249
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: when a baby boy says, Jedi has superpowers, he has

250
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: magical powers? How how does it happen? How do they

251
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: do that? How does a pet do that? You know?

252
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 1: And listening to what you're saying, getting you together what

253
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: everyone is saying so far real quickly to be got

254
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: a second our daughter, Julie, who lives with us. It's

255
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: forty two years old. At the age of two and

256
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: a half, when the worst forms of the team you

257
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: can imagine in the world in nineteen seventy seven. So

258
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 1: he rushed her uh down to St. Jude Hospital, that

259
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: two year old age. We're noxural at that time, by

260
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: the way, and they told her she would not live

261
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: twelve hours. So we got her barely there and not

262
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: a twelve kids are floor. Everyone passed away except she

263
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 1: and a little boy. Now Julie back to the animals

264
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: was used for research. She had radiation to brain along

265
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: with another boy. There's only two that survived on the

266
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: twelve kids today. Of course, that was one building in

267
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: seven Jude has thirty to day. So I'm saying that

268
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: my daughter Julie allowed with the other boy, gave their lives.

269
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: Julius has had her last brain tumor two years ago.

270
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: She's forty three, lives with us. We continue to have tumors,

271
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: but thank god, so far all of them have been

272
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: she lives with us. Not that uh there cancerous, but

273
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: she's been just she survived. What I'm saying to you

274
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: talking about animal world, what you are doing. If you

275
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: look up, there's a list and I don't know where

276
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: it is, of how many diseases would it be measles,

277
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: chicken pox, go down, tore about forty of them. You'll

278
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: see how the animal world literally saved human beings by research.

279
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not. I'm not for inhumane. I don't

280
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: like animal research become the slamming dogs and animals and

281
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: like that against rainshields to test test cars like they

282
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: used to do. You. No, I'll fight that against every

283
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: every day. However, when it comes to animal research for

284
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: humane by the way, I said humane, all right, when

285
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: my own daughter or the other human beings are being used,

286
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 1: the animal world literally has saved many of us and

287
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: one of the hardest things for me to do. It's

288
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: what I have in the last twenty years. I guess

289
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: if you call it, I'm not. I don't easy word celebrity.

290
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: By the way, I never have. I'm an animal ambassador

291
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: and I don't like the word celebrity. But when will

292
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: come to me and a little child, for example of

293
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: last year was nine years old, I think it from Indianna,

294
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 1: her sister. She came. She had maybe her. They told

295
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: us on the phone that they called the last wish,

296
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 1: especially wish the last wishes. Or you go in my office,

297
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 1: you'll see the pictures of these young people who didn't

298
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: make it. Their last wish was to see an animal.

299
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: And you won't believe this. They came there. Um last year.

300
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: You could see that she was had because I'm been

301
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: through all this stuff which she has no hair, and

302
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: all the treatments with drugs and everything everything, and she

303
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: hadn't smiled. All of a sudden, I put a little

304
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: penguin right there in her lap, and sure enough she

305
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 1: smiled for one of the first times. It's amazing what

306
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: animals will do. Then I asked the father, I mean,

307
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: you wipe her hands off? Have a little slot I

308
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: wanted to touch, and it was born there Darzi and Plumbus,

309
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: and he said, no, Jack, her hands to be washed

310
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: very shortly, and he pointed to heaven. You don't think

311
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,199
Speaker 1: that myself and father us there didn't lose it, you know.

312
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: And what you're talking about the same kind of thing.

313
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: Animals for some reason they have they have a way

314
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: with him. When I've seen these children their pictures on

315
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: my walls and went to not make it um, but

316
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: they had their last thing. And I go to the

317
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 1: show's hospitals, even with some of the animals. You see

318
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: these children and how they just come out of that pain.

319
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: And I wish I could explain, you know, Like I said,

320
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: I have a saying I live by it. You have

321
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 1: touched the heart to teach the mind, and these kids

322
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: are really touching my heart more than I am theirs,

323
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: and I just you know, I don't That's what I

324
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: can answer you a question again if you want me to.

325
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 1: But I'm just telling you what I have to look at.

326
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: I don't have to do it at all. But it's

327
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 1: something that really shows me in life what the animal

328
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 1: world means to to all of us. You know, there

329
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 1: were no words more beautiful the way you said, Jack, Hannah.

330
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: And I know you don't want to be thought of

331
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: as celebrity. And that's the truth about Jack. He's a

332
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: world famous celebrity. Everybody knows Jack Hanna. In fact, I

333
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 1: may be guilty of putting you in my last book

334
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: where there was an animal related murder, but you weren't

335
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 1: connected to that. Jack. You know what I'm saying is

336
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: everybody knows you what everybody loves you for what you're

337
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: doing for animals and hold, I've got to thank my partner.

338
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: I have to, I want to. And one of our

339
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: partners that I just love is super Beats. My son

340
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: first heard I was involved with super Beats. He meant, Mom,

341
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: those are too costy. Their four dollars. He thought I

342
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: was talking about this really expensive set of earphones. He's

343
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: all about earphones, super Beats b E A T S.

344
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, my love, no super beats b E

345
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: E T s. You know, speaking of the twins, wouldn't

346
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: it be great to have all the energy you wanted

347
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 1: all day long, so I could, you know, run with

348
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: them all day. But fatigue gets in the way even

349
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: for everyday activities. I mean, if you're up at five

350
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: thirty every morning like I am, by about four o'clock,

351
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,719
Speaker 1: you're dragging. It seems to get worse every year, and

352
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 1: this is why when you're twenty, your body has a

353
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: natural ability to maintain healthy circulation. By the time your forty,

354
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,120
Speaker 1: that ability has decreased by a half and it leaves

355
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: you feeling tired. What can you do to get that

356
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 1: circulation back and fight fatigue? Drink super beats listen. Super

374
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: dogs have this unbelievable cats too, sense of smell. Humans

375
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: have about five million cent receptors. Dogs have up to

376
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: three million, depending on the breed, and it's been proven

377
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: that they can sniff out chemical change and detect all

378
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: types of illnesses and humans, including epileptic seizures, certain types

379
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: of cancer, diabetes changes, and a theory is that our

380
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: present day dog ancestors Gray wolf pack survival depended on

381
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: the ability to know which member of the pack was

382
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: sick uh Jablin, as you have reported on so many

383
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: pet heroes way in Yes, Well, first of all, you

384
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: should pay attention to your dog in your home. There's

385
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: a great story out of North Carolina about a dog,

386
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 1: a Labrador, who would get very agitated when the families

387
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: babysitter was around and would try to place himself between

388
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 1: the seven months old boy and the babysitter and growl

389
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 1: and the parents noted the dog's haired stand up. So

390
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: they saw this happening so often they decided to put

391
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: a recording device in the home when they left, and

392
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 1: they found out that this babysitter was abusing their child,

393
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: slapping the child and insulting the child. And because be

394
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: they were alerted by the dog, they ultimately had this

395
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 1: woman arrested. So when you're a parent or you're just

396
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: a person, pay attention to your dogs. If you want

397
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: to know what it's like to be an animal, take

398
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: a vow of silence for a couple of hours and

399
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: see what mechanisms you're going to use to communicate. You're

400
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: going to find herself tapping and doing a lot of

401
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: the same maneuvers that dogs can because they can't speak English,

402
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 1: but they can communicate. And um, you know what I

403
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 1: say is it's not just dogs. We have this odd

404
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: thing in our culture where some animals, Oh, we love them,

405
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: we adore them, we deify them. Others they're not entitled

406
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: to any respect and we consider them commodities. Let me

407
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: just tell you that there's um tremendous, tremendous intelligence and pigs.

408
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 1: In fact, Lulu, a housebroken pot belly pig, saved her

409
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 1: human companions of life. Um. The woman was on vacation

410
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: Joanne in Pennsylvania. She collapsed in a heart attack. The

411
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,160
Speaker 1: pot bellied pig ran out of the mobile home where

412
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: they were staying, crashed through the gates. When a car

413
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 1: was coming, the pig would lie down on the road.

414
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: Several cars just veered around the dog. Lulu kept running

415
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: back and checking on her human companion. Finally she ran

416
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: out threw herself on the ground again. A motorcycle stopped

417
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: followed Lulu back to the mobile home, and that's where

418
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:07,199
Speaker 1: he encountered Uh Lulu's mom Uh lying there having had

419
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: a heart attack, and they called mine one one. So

420
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: pigs are extremely intelligent animals. They are smarter than dogs,

421
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: and they have the intelligence of very young human children.

422
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 1: So as we expand our circle of compassion beyond the

423
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 1: boundaries of our own species, let's not just stop it

424
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 1: dogs and cats. Let's consider all animals, because guess what,

425
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,199
Speaker 1: we're all animals, including us. You know, Jane Villis Mitchell,

426
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: have I told you today? I just love you. I

427
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:40,479
Speaker 1: loved you from the very first moment that you filled

428
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 1: in for me as a guest host on CNN chill

429
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 1: in and that was just it. And to hear you

430
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 1: speak and tell your stories. I just want the world

431
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: to love you as much as I love you. I

432
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: just can't imagine that I've got Jack Hannah and Jane

433
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 1: Villis Mitchell on at the same time. You know, I've

434
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 1: got another lady with me, and I want you guys

435
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 1: to hear her incredible story. And again I'm looking at

436
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: a picture of her, and I've just got to tell

437
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: you it just really makes me cry. It's a this

438
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 1: lovely blond lady and she's wearing tights, black tights and

439
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 1: a blue tshirt, and she's looking down at a little boy.

440
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: He looks like he's reading a iPad and he's got

441
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: his head resting on a big dog like he's a

442
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 1: pillow with me right now, And let me just go

443
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 1: ahead and destroy your name. I think I'm saying correctly,

444
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: Shawna House. No, my goodness, Alan, let me just rub

445
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: it in that I pronounced it right the first time.

446
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 1: I'm like some people you that I won't mention Shawna.

447
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this little boy and I'm guessing this

448
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: is your little boy. You're five year old? Yes, what happened?

449
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:03,120
Speaker 1: So the day this picture was taken was the day

450
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: that we met Tornado, my son's service dog. That was

451
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: the first day of our training class. UM. You know,

452
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: we live in Japan right now. UM we're Americans, but

453
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: we live in Japan. And we had been fundraising for

454
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,959
Speaker 1: UM quite a long time to cover the costs of

455
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: training for a Tornado and then also for our family,

456
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:29,199
Speaker 1: our family of five traveling from Japan to Ohio to

457
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 1: the organization that trained Tornado for Kai. And there there's

458
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: there's some why does Kai need a service dog? So?

459
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 1: Kai is autistic. UM. We when he when he was younger,

460
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: we noticed that there are some elements to UH having

461
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,919
Speaker 1: an autistic child that can be really challenging. UH. And

462
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: as a parent, it's your responsibility to UM, you know,

463
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: help them live their most fulfilling life, give them the

464
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: most access to the world, support them and love them

465
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: in the best ways that you can. And Kai is

466
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: a dog person. I'm a dog person, UM. And he's

467
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 1: always where where he would find troubles socially with people

468
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: or find challenges with people. UH, those those social interactions

469
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: didn't come really naturally to him, but he did always

470
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: gravitate to dogs. So my husband and I debated getting

471
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: him a pet dog, but we thought, well, if we're

472
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: going to get him a dog, let's let's get him,

473
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: you know, something, something proper that can be with him.

474
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: If this is who he might make a connection to,

475
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: let's go for it. So we we we decided to

476
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: um fundraise and have uh Tornado raised for Kai um.

477
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: So this the day of the picture that you see

478
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: is the first day that they met. Towards the end

479
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: of the day, after we had traveled across the entire

480
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 1: globe through the continental US to get over to Ohio,

481
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: we met Tornado for the first time. Kai was really overwhelmed.

482
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 1: He I think we were all overwhelmed, along with other

483
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: families who were other recipient families who had received their

484
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 1: dogs that day and Kai. My husband had to take

485
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 1: Kai back to where we were staying and give him

486
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: a break and kind of bring him, you know, in

487
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: and out, you know, as he could um manage himself.

488
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 1: And then this was sort of at the end of

489
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: the day, shortly before we were leaving, and out of nowhere,

490
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: Kai came out of the children's playroom, grabbed his iPad

491
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: and then just came in late on Tornado and sorry,

492
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: I'm getting emotional. So it that moment where you see

493
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: me kind of crying is actually was really like like

494
00:28:55,800 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: an ugly cry. Um was sort of the moment that

495
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: two years of hope went into that moment. You know,

496
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 1: we we signed on to fundraise, we signed on to

497
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: to travel, we signed on for all of this hope

498
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: that Kai might connect with his service dog, and that

499
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: his service dog, Tornado would help be that bridge from

500
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 1: Kai to bring those connections to the rest of the world,

501
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: to help give him access to the rest of the world,

502
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: to help give my husband and I peace of mind

503
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 1: when when you know we live in Tokyo and and

504
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: it's exceptionally busy here, and the people, the crowds are

505
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: are out of this world, and that's overwhelming for anybody,

506
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 1: let alone you know, a child with sensory processing difference,

507
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: he's already an American kid in Tokyo and he is autistic.

508
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: To add onto it, I'm looking at this photo and

509
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 1: you say, it was worth every fight, every diagnosis, every dollar,

510
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: every paper filled out, every school meeting, every tier I shed,

511
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: every step forward, every step back to see what you're

512
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 1: seeing right then, and it's you say, the face of

513
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: a mother who sees her child who she cannot hug

514
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: was dressed snuggling touch freely because of his autism. Now

515
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: laying on his service dog of your child's own free will.

516
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: And I've got that photo posted on crime online dot com.

517
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: I want to thank our partner who's making today's serious

518
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: XMO program possible with my awesome guests. It's link A

519
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 1: k C. Now, if you're like me, you don't leave

520
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 1: your dog out of all the fun. Oh yes, he

521
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: totally has a stocking. Well. This year's must have gift

522
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: dogs and their owners is the link a k C

523
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: Smart Collar. It's backed by the American Kennel Club. The

524
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: link A k C collar is a GPS locator, a

525
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: fitness activity tracker for a dog, Yes, for a dog,

526
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: all control through a smartphone app. It even has an

527
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: L E D light and temperature sensor. Now, this is

528
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: the part I like the GPS locator. Forget about the

529
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: locator I want to put on my husband. This is

530
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 1: from my dog. I'm much more concerned about where he is.

531
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 1: I need to know where a fat boy is. Did

532
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: he get out of the yard? Is he running down

533
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: the street? Did your dog walker take him? Where? He's

534
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,239
Speaker 1: supposed to. You can see exactly where your dog is

535
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: right on the app. It's total peace of mind. My

536
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 1: favorite part that I like to talk about is the

537
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: wellness tracker. Doesn't matter how old or fat your dog is,

538
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: whether it's a pure breed or a little mutt like mine.

539
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 1: Link A A C shows the exact amount of activity

540
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: every dog needs. Again, forget that fitbit from my husband,

541
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: I'm worried about fat boy getting exercise. It's easy to

542
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 1: set up. There's a size for every dog, and as

543
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: super comfy and very attractive. You should see how cute

544
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: fat Boy looks in his A k C collar. As

545
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 1: a matter of fact, go to our Instagram, Facebook, and

546

Speaker 1: Twitter to see the pictures we posted a fat Boy Now.

547
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: The name they gave him at the pound was Nitro,

548
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: but because he fell asleep in a bag of food

549
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: one night and his stomach was actually so big it

550
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: kind of hung over to one side, that's how he

551
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:42,320

Speaker 1: You'll be happy now. I've got six pets in the

565
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: house right now, um our rescue as I say, pound puppy,

566
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: but I don't think we're supposed to say that anymore.

567
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: A squ dog that they told me was the pure

568
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: bred docks and well that is so not true. But

569
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 1: whatever is, we love him. He's insane, fat boy Sinnamon

570
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: girl who is the cat. My nephew and his wife

571
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: and baby are living with us right now. They have

572
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: press Shis and Beni and then my daughter got obsessed

573
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 1: with guinea pigs. Now we have Abby and Chloe who

574
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: chase each other all night long, and weak and popcorn

575
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 1: and the whole works. So and she wants another one.

576
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: I just want to tell you that, Jack Kenna, what

577
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 1: is this calming, this calming influence that pets have. Even

578
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 1: at night, after we have supper and we finished our

579
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: homework and we're sitting around watching something on Disney, they

580
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 1: want to bring the dog in to sit with them.

581
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:37,399
Speaker 1: What is that? I just think the dogs are right

582
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 1: enough to know about what the what, what the temperament is,

583
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: what what's going on in nighttime? These animals sit and

584
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: watch and learn things. But one thing I want to

585
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,479
Speaker 1: mention real quickly. I was anteing what Jane was saying,

586
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 1: and the three things I talked to people I learned

587
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: from my dad on the farm when I was five

588
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: years old. I want to get a little pair of

589
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 1: keet and my dad said, Jack, let me, I know

590
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: you love this little pair of keep you saw in

591
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: the store window. Yeah. Do Dad remember something, Son. It's

592
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: a word called responsibility. Just like on this farm here,

593
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 1: you're responsible for the life of that animal. That means

594
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,879
Speaker 1: you will take care of it every single day. You'll

595
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 1: make sure it's had a great life. You're not gonna

596
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: have some a little small cage and you're gonna take

597
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: care of that animal. Jack but you know something, after

598
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 1: the love loves something like you do, you have a responsibility.

599
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: When you have a pet, you have the love for it,

600
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: you have responsibility for it. And you know something I

601
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 1: figured out about years ago. Gets what else it teaches?

602
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: And they may think of me more, but here it

603
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: teaches death. For example, when little pet died five years later,

604
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 1: Brety middle cheerials box the top of our hill. They're

605
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 1: on the farm. Now, that was my first one. Then

606
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,479
Speaker 1: next time we had the terrible thing and a little

607
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 1: two little goats, and my dad felt terrible when I'm

608
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,439
Speaker 1: hit underneath the car and lost his life. Now after

609
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 1: those two things, my grandfather died two years later. Now,

610
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,879
Speaker 1: what I'm saying everybody is for me to go through

611
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 1: death of a grandparents or our parents are both gone.

612
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 1: You see how when you get older what happens. And

613
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: then you may think I'm crazy when I'll use that

614
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: word death, I don't. I won't use it in front

615
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: of children. What it teaches all of us at least

616
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 1: taught me, and I know it teaches others that when

617
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,240
Speaker 1: you're an animal like that, whether you're dog, a bird,

618
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 1: whatever it might be. Uh, it teaches those things you

619
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 1: have to love that animal, your responsibility for that animal,

620
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 1: for its life, and life will end. But a lot

621
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: of young people like myself didn't understand. We all know this.

622
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 1: I'm seventy now, and you never think life is gonna

623
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 1: end until you see what I'm sure Jane, myself and

624
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,920
Speaker 1: a lot of you guys have. If you work with animals,

625
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: you know what's gonna happen eventually, but children don't understand it.

626
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 1: You don't sit there and talk to about it, but

627
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 1: they'll be exposed to it and they sell Corney on

628
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,919
Speaker 1: this interview today. But those are the things I've lived

629
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: by when it comes to animals, you love them, you're

630
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 1: responsible for those animals, and then at that point you

631
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: know that they will come. But a lot of people

632
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,799
Speaker 1: don't understand that they will come and um, and that's

633
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: why I think the animal world helps with as well.

634
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: You know, Jack, another thing that I love about you

635
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 1: and your whole team, your beautiful family and wife. You

636
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 1: live by the words you preach. You don't say one

637
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 1: thing and do another. And you know at a time

638
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 1: where every time I go online or dare to turn

639
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:06,760
Speaker 1: on the knews, I hear about one more famous person

640
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 1: has done all allegedly a horrible thing. And you know what,

641
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 1: that's not true about Jack, That is not true what

642
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:21,359
Speaker 1: he says he lives by. And you know what's interesting, Um,

643
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,280
Speaker 1: you'll be happy to know, all four of you. Lucy

644
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 1: first became obsessed well, John David got obsessed with dogs,

645
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 1: hence fat Boy Street named Nitrope and Um. Then Lucy

646
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,399
Speaker 1: was obsessed with cats. If I'd sneak up on her

647
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 1: on her iPad to see what she was looking at,

648
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: and it would be cat videos. I mean we all

649
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: had to watch them, one cat video after the next. Okay,

650
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 1: so that's how we got fat Boy in cinema. Then

651
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,320
Speaker 1: we had cinema for about six months until the videos

652
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 1: started again about guinea pigs. Last night, I said, can

653
00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: I have that awesome salad you're making? She says, mom, Um,

654
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,439
Speaker 1: this is for the guineas. I mean, it's a full

655
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 1: on salad. It's carrots, it's red bell peppers, green bell peppers, romaine, lattice, cucumbers, zucchini,

656
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 1: the works. And she makes two full on human salads.

657
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: No wonder they poop all the time. I just pray,

658
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: I pray that she doesn't get into horses. Okay, I

659
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 1: just I just don't think I can take it, and

660
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,279
Speaker 1: I know more guineas are on the way. Listen to

661
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:34,760
Speaker 1: this story, guys. This woman dying in Boucher was woken

662
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 1: up from a deep sleep at four thirty in the

663
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 1: morning by Oreo, her cat. The cat wouldn't stop screaming,

664
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 1: would not stop screaming. She ran out to check on

665
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: the cat. And you know that sound when you hear

666
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,720
Speaker 1: your cat or dog make a crazy, high pitched screamy sound.

667
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: She ran out and what she found were flames. And

668
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: if it had not been for her cat wake her up,

669
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,799
Speaker 1: you know she would be dead and her home destroyed.

670
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: There are stories like David c. C fourteen years old,

671
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,720
Speaker 1: couldn't swim, fell out of his dad's boat, and within

672
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: minutes a dolphin called Filippo had come to the tourist

673
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:25,439
Speaker 1: attraction and saved the boy's life, pushing him up out

674
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 1: of the water to safety. I mean a dog. Brenda

675
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 1: Owen gone out for a walk with her dog. She

676
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 1: spotted a wheelchair on a river bank, sees a woman

677
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 1: in the water. She called out, The woman didn't answer.

678
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 1: She said to the dog. Fetched. The dog jumps straight

679
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,760
Speaker 1: in that cold river water and pulled the woman to shore.

680
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it goes on a two year old child

681
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:53,760
Speaker 1: in Texas walking with his grandmother when Arf, the family's

682
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: dog got very agitated so badly the dog thought. I mean,

683
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: the grandmother thought, I better take the child inside. The

684
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 1: dog's going crazy. The child's mother came out to find

685
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 1: art in a fight when the twenty four in North

686
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 1: American coral snake and Jack Hannay, you can tell us

687
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 1: about coral snakes. Go ahead, Yeah, well, it is a snake.

688
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: Obviously they can be failed. It's not a matter of

689
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 1: a like a rattlesnake. You know, people say about rattlesnakes

690
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,280
Speaker 1: all the time with the good Lord made a rattlesnake,

691
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: because snake will rattle. See he'll step on it, and

692
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: people say, oh my god, it's a rattlesnake, will being

693
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: very happy it's a rattlesnake. Coral snake looks like some

694
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 1: other kinds of steak, king snake, things like that. But

695
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: that's a newer toxic and he must thought he would

696
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: toxic because you know, is a rattlesnake. Those kind of

697
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: snakes were it's just a very painful bite and also

698
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 1: just rots. But when you comes to a coral snake,

699
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 1: which is pretty rare, the animal has to basically chew,

700
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,439
Speaker 1: but he doesn't have the things and that goes that's

701
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: h not he it is newer toxic when you means

702
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 1: he goes to the brain and you go to sleep basically,

703
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 1: and I'm sorry to say, you might just sleep rather forever.

704
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: So people get mixed up on snakes. I've filmed snakes

705
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 1: all over the world. Um uh my people always ask

706
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 1: me the question, oh my gosh, Jack, have you been betten?

707
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 1: You know, I don't like that question because is Jane

708
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:09,720
Speaker 1: will agree if I'm betten or something my animal usually

709
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 1: usually most of the time, it's my fault. It's not

710
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,880
Speaker 1: the animal's fault. When we film out there for thirty years,

711
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: I made it clear as thirty years ago you respect.

712
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: It's called respect for your animal. At home, it's respect

713
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 1: for the elephants and the lion. Some film crews love

714
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: to go in there and push it to where the

715
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,879
Speaker 1: dawn gum thing attacks the jeep and throws it over,

716
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,319
Speaker 1: and some guys get bitten. You know. The reality TV

717
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 1: I'm not a big fan of it because they doesn't

718
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 1: teach the young people how to go to Africa or

719
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: India or the North Post, South Pole wherever I go.

720
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: Uh we were We filmed with respect. Okay, maybe you

721
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: don't get the best film of something attacking and blood

722
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 1: flying every which way. That's their home, not my home.

723
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 1: And we always feel with respect to these animals, and

724
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:47,959
Speaker 1: we've always done it. And the God that our crew

725
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: has been together for twenty three years and we all

726
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 1: work as a team as a family, and we look

727
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: at those wild animals, your animal home. You know you

728
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,879
Speaker 1: you respect your animals home. You don't sit down and

729
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,840
Speaker 1: take a dog. And my dad taught me that you

730
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: you put food there in his saying, and all of

731
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 1: a sudden, you have a two year older somebody visit

732
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 1: you and they go and grab the food out of

733
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: dog bowl. Jane will tell you that could be a

734
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 1: fatal bite, a fatal bite, that could be a chamble bite.

735
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: So kids have to learn about animals. And I know

736
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: I'm jumping around a lot. My dad us gentm me

737
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 1: on the farm. I have a T N T or

738
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: a D T A D. I don't know what the

739
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 1: hell the heck I have my w I can't remember

740
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,800
Speaker 1: a D H A T and t ill okay, whatever

741
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 1: it is. Anyway, I jump around a lot, but I

742
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 1: just I'm trying to explain things about animals and nel.

743
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: Some dogs are never even betting anybody. But you can't

744
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: go up to dogs grab the food of a pot,

745
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,399
Speaker 1: you know. I learned all these things on the farm

746
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 1: and how to how to respect the animal world. And

747
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 1: that's what I try to do when I film and

748
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 1: when I talk about the animals, you know, and it

749
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: does a Coming to the Cormon Zoological Park, I think

750
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,479
Speaker 1: Jane knows nine percent of my animals today and ninety

751
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: eight percent come from other zoos. I can go click

752
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:49,959
Speaker 1: if I need a sperm or an egg or something

753
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 1: like that, because I think we really are the arts

754
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 1: of the world. We weren't that. We were not that

755
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 1: by the way, thirty years ago. But today um millions,

756
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 1: tens of millions of dollars to spit on to make

757
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 1: sure these animals have habitats. Uh, there's some other best

758
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: in the world. And if you can't touch the heart

759
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 1: to teach some mind of these people about your dogs

760
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 1: or cats or some of these animals, and none of them.

761
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,399
Speaker 1: When I do my speeches to two or three thousand

762
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: people in these theaters asked the audience, how many have

763
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 1: you ever seen a elephant in Africa? No hands? How

764
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 1: many have you you ever seen a killer? Well, no hands?

765
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 1: How many have you seen? I could go through a

766
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 1: list of five thousand animals and usually sometimes I'll say adolphin.

767
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 1: You'll get some hands up. So what I'm trying to

768
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 1: say is in this logical world, in the aquarium world,

769
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,839
Speaker 1: having these animals now that we know how to breed

770
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 1: them and have them and have the proper habitats, and

771
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: then I'll agree with people way back when they weren't

772
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 1: good habitats. But now today we do that because we

773
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 1: have to let people see for themselves why they weren't

774
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:45,960
Speaker 1: want to love an animal to save an animal. You

775
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 1: can't love something you can't save something in the world

776
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 1: that my wife hates this term, but I'll say it

777
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,839
Speaker 1: real quick. I have kids and grandkids. But I'll tell

778
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 1: you one thing is I traveled the world. The main

779
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: thing we have everybody, you can do global warming for

780
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: everything you want to. It's called over population. I think

781
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 1: Jane is probably overpopulation takes animals room. It's that It's

782
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:07,359
Speaker 1: that simple and it's not rocket science. Everybody can sit

783
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 1: here and debate on global warming. You debate all you

784
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 1: want to water and all this stuff causing this. The

785
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 1: Good Lord put the earth here, he told us to

786
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 1: do with what propetator prey relationship on our earth. Obviously,

787
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 1: with so many people, it's been screwed up. So that's

788
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 1: why we have to sit here and and uh, at

789
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: least teach people something about other animals throughout the world,

790
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,319
Speaker 1: you know, and that kind of thing, and hopefully people

791
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,399
Speaker 1: learn from their dogs and cats. Um. Without the animal world,

792
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 1: none of us would be here in many different ways.

793
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,439
Speaker 1: But the animal worlds taught me a lot, by the way,

794
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 1: when I go out there and study the gorillas or

795
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 1: watched them for over all these years. And the lions,

796
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 1: which are you know, the real social animal, not like

797
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 1: the solitary catch motion on the spot where you see

798
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,720
Speaker 1: the snakes for example. You know, these are all creatures

799
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: on earth, and and if you go out and learn

800
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,280
Speaker 1: about them and see them, then you respect them. You know, Jane,

801
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 1: what you were saying earlier about it's not just cats

802
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 1: and dogs. On a hot August August day at Brookfield Zoo,

803
00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,040
Speaker 1: a three year old boy falls into a gorilla in

804
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 1: closure and actually gets knocked out a female Lowland gorilla

805
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 1: bentye Jew guarded the boy from all the other gorillas.

806
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 1: Then she picks the baby boy up in her arms

807
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 1: like a human would hold a baby. She's got her

808
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:22,399
Speaker 1: own seventeen month old baby on her back, and she

809
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:27,239
Speaker 1: carries the human baby sixty feet to an entrance and

810
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:32,799
Speaker 1: hands the baby to the human zookeepers. I mean, Jane,

811
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:38,479
Speaker 1: why don't people understand that animals are extremely intelligent? Well,

812
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 1: because they can't speak English, and this is why some

813
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: people have here from Los Angeles. You'll probably chuckle. But

814
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:47,839
Speaker 1: one of the things that some of the animal rights

815
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 1: activists are doing is taking a vowed silence for a

816
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 1: couple of hours every day to communicate nonverbally so that

817
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 1: they can understand what it's like to be an animal.

818
00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:01,879
Speaker 1: And so, you know, animals exhibit unconditional of They are

819
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 1: highly intelligent. They have all the emotions that humans have.

820
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 1: They experienced terror, they experience loneliness, they experienced longing, They

821
00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,640
Speaker 1: they have all the whole range of emotions. I mean,

822
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,799
Speaker 1: my gosh, my four little rescues here at home. Uh.

823
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 1: They We've got a reality show going on right here

824
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 1: with Kabos and Lucas Foxy and Uh Foxy from Fresno

825
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,120
Speaker 1: rescued from the streets of Fresno, Little Rico rescued from

826
00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 1: the streets of Puerto Rico. And Tucks the Cat rescued

827
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,399
Speaker 1: from Queens, New York. I want you to tell me,

828
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 1: Jane Viles Mitchell from your Encyclopedia mind about animals an

829
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:42,840
Speaker 1: animal hero story. Yes, Well, you know, we've had fires

830
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:46,839
Speaker 1: here in California, and of course we urge everyone take

831
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 1: your companion animals with you if there's any kind of danger,

832
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: because you never know when you're going to get back. Well,

833
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 1: there was a family in Sonoma County just recently that

834
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,840
Speaker 1: had to evacuate. They woke up, they saw the flames encroaching.

835
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:03,279
Speaker 1: The grabbed their daughter. They grabbed their eight dogs and cats,

836
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:06,839
Speaker 1: but one dog refused to leave. Why Because they had

837
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 1: eight rescue goats as well, and the rescue goasts couldn't

838
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 1: be evacuated. They did not have the trailers to take

839
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,800
Speaker 1: the goats away. The dog, Odin refused to leave the goats.

840
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 1: They left. The family left, leaving the dog behind because

841
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 1: he refused to leave. Their house was totally destroyed. They

842
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 1: came back several days later and Odin had saved the

843
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:31,560
Speaker 1: eight rescue goats as well as a baby deer who

844
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 1: had joined fleeing the flames. And he was singed and

845
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 1: he was limping, but he saw it upon himself as

846
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 1: his responsibility to hurd and save those goats. With me today,

847
