Some animals live in the wild,

00:12:47,900 --> 00:12:53,606
For example, if a crocodile gets 
into a cool river or pond,

177
00:12:53,606 --> 00:12:57,843
it's body temperature will 
adjust to the temperature

178
00:12:57,843 --> 00:12:59,845
of the water.

00:12:59,845 --> 00:13:04,183

lays in the hot sun,

it's body temperature will rise

The skin of a reptile is made up 
of scales.

182
00:13:14,126 --> 00:13:19,799
Lizards and snakes have a single 
sheet of overlapping scales.

183
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:26,305
Turtles and crocodiles have 
individual scales called plates.

184
00:13:26,305 --> 00:13:31,177
Many reptiles shed their skin 
several times a year.

185
00:13:31,177 --> 00:13:35,047
The new skin grows underneath 
the old skin

186
00:13:35,047 --> 00:13:38,951
and when it's ready, the snake 
just wiggles

187
00:13:38,951 --> 00:13:42,955

skin.

Have you ever seen a frog?

Maybe in your back yard or at 
the park near a pond or a lake?

Frogs are a kind of animal

00:14:06,779 --> 00:14:11,617
Amphibians are at home in the

00:14:11,617 --> 00:14:15,955
Frogs are good swimmers and very 
good jumpers.

195
00:14:15,955 --> 00:14:20,826
Like reptiles, amphibians are 
cold blooded animals.

196
00:14:20,826 --> 00:14:26,498
But unlike reptiles, they have 
smooth skin with no scales.

00:15:32,598 --> 00:15:35,067
The rhino has a large square lip 
which it uses

211
00:15:35,067 --> 00:15:38,470
to eat short grasses.

212
00:15:38,470 --> 00:15:41,540

and I'm playing with my dog, 
petting her.

350
00:23:09,788 --> 00:23:11,957
She's a German Shepherd mixed 
with Labrador.

[dog barking]

352
00:23:13,258 --> 00:23:17,229
She likes to play soccer, and I 
like to play with her,

353
00:23:17,229 --> 00:23:19,064
like tug of war.

354
00:23:19,064 --> 00:23:21,833
And I like running back there 
and rolling down the grass

355
00:23:21,833 --> 00:23:25,203
and then she'll start playing 
and taking my hat and stuff

356
00:23:25,203 --> 00:23:27,339
when I roll down the hill.

357
00:23:27,339 --> 00:23:30,809

about.

359
00:23:45,056 --> 00:23:47,793
Pets can be lots of fun.

360
00:23:47,793 --> 00:23:50,896
They can also be lots of work.

361
00:23:50,896 --> 00:23:54,499
So, how do you decide when your 
child is ready

362
00:23:54,499 --> 00:23:57,035
for the responsibility of having 
a pet?

363
00:23:57,035 --> 00:23:59,971
How do you select the right pet?

364
00:23:59,971 --> 00:24:02,607
Well, that's what we're going to 
find out today here

365
00:24:02,607 --> 00:24:04,242
on Parent's Corner.

366
00:24:04,242 --> 00:24:09,014
Here's Shelly Goforth with the 
Humane Society to tell us more.

367
00:24:11,783 --> 00:24:14,286
The Humane Society strongly 
encourages you to be

368
00:24:14,286 --> 00:24:16,121
a responsible pet owner.

369
00:24:16,121 --> 00:24:19,558
A very important part of this is 
to avoid making impulsive

370
00:24:19,558 --> 00:24:23,128
decisions when choosing an 
animal for your family.

371
00:24:23,128 --> 00:24:25,630
Make sure that all members of 
your family are ready

372
00:24:25,630 --> 00:24:27,399
for this increased 
responsibility,

373
00:24:27,399 --> 00:24:31,136
because remember, in most cases 
a new animal

374
00:24:31,136 --> 00:24:33,905
is a 10 to 15 year commitment.

375
00:24:33,905 --> 00:24:36,541
In fact, you can even make it a 
family project.

376
00:24:36,541 --> 00:24:39,077
Make an appointment with your 
local veterinarian

377
00:24:39,077 --> 00:24:41,646
to take your children in to 
learn all that it takes

378
00:24:41,646 --> 00:24:44,216
to keep an animal healthy and 
happy.

379
00:24:44,216 --> 00:24:47,052
And then take a trip to your 
local library to look up

380
00:24:47,052 --> 00:24:50,555
as many books as you can on 
different breeds and to choose

381
00:24:50,555 --> 00:24:53,258
the right breed for your family 
and maybe even the right

382
00:24:53,258 --> 00:24:55,827
combination of breeds for your 
family.

383
00:24:55,827 --> 00:24:58,396
Always take a child's age into 
account when choosing

384
00:24:58,396 --> 00:25:00,165
a family pet.

385
00:25:00,165 --> 00:25:03,935
In fact, you also want to avoid 
getting an animal

386
00:25:03,935 --> 00:25:07,672
that is fragile, maybe a puppy 
or a kitten, with a child

387
00:25:07,672 --> 00:25:10,876
who is too young to handle that 
responsibility and could

388
00:25:10,876 --> 00:25:13,278
possibly harm the animal while 
playing.

389
00:25:13,278 --> 00:25:16,081
Always, always supervise.

390
00:25:16,081 --> 00:25:18,583
Once you get a family animal, 
you want to make sure

391
00:25:18,583 --> 00:25:21,253
that it gets all the 
vaccinations that it needs,

392
00:25:21,253 --> 00:25:23,655
and to have it spayed or 
neutered before the age

393
00:25:23,655 --> 00:25:24,990
of six months.

394
00:25:24,990 --> 00:25:27,692
This will help you avoid 
unwanted litters and will also

395
00:25:27,692 --> 00:25:32,531
help avoid adding to the animal 
overpopulation problem.

396
00:25:36,601 --> 00:25:37,736
Doggone it!

397
00:25:37,736 --> 00:25:39,971
Once again, we're out of time.

00:25:39,971 --> 00:25:43,909
I hope you've had as much fun as 
I've had learning about animals.
