Descripción de Animal Allies 11/01/04:

In Animal Allies this week, we travel to South Africa on the trail of an ailing elephant. This youngster has come off second best in a hassle with a hippo and these Animal Doctors will need all their skill to stem the infection in her badly injured leg. It's a much brighter picture in the rolling English countryside where we meet the old workhorses finally at peace in their own version of "horse heaven" after a lifetime of service. In our Animal Allies "How To".... who's a pampered puss? We pass on the message about massage and how this ancient healing art is helping felines enjoy all their nine lives. And in Animal World, you'll meet a prehistoric-looking creature found in Sydney, Australia. We'll tell you how Leonardo the alligator snapping turtle's life almost went down the drain.... Literally.
