OUR NEXT GUEST IS A --
>> ANIMALS!
>> Jimmy: IS A ZOOLOGIST WITH A
LOVE FOR DANGEROUS BEASTS.
HIS NEW SHOW ON FACEBOOK WATCH
IS CALLED “ANIMAL BITES WITH
DAVE SALMONI.”
FROM ANIMAL PLANET, PLEASE
WELCOME DAVE SALMONI.
>> HOW ARE YOU?
I'D SHAKE YOUR HAND BUT IT'S
PROBABLY NOT A GREAT IDEA.
>> HOW WITH YOU.
>> GOOD, DAVE.
I'M BEING RUDE TO EVERYBODY, NOT
SHAKING ANYONE'S HANDS.
>> WHAT A CUTE -- YOU CAN BE
RUDE.
YOU'VE GOT YOUR HANDS FULL.
>> THIS IS AN ALLIGATOR.
>> Jimmy: YEAH, IT'S A LITTLE
ONE, RIGHT?
>> IT IS ACTUALLY A LITTLE ONE,
RIGHT.
THESE GUYS CAN BE OVER 1,000
POUNDS.
GO AHEAD AND SIT DOWN.
>> Jimmy: REALLY?
WILL THAT ONE GET UP TO --
>> THEY ALL BASICALLY GROW TO
THE SIZE OF THEIR ENCLOSURES OR
WHAT THEY EAT SO IF THIS GUY'S
IN A WILD AREA WHERE THERE'S BIG
THINGS LIKE PIGS AND DEER THAT
HE HEATS, HE'LL BE 16'1" POUNDS.
BUT IF HE IS IN AREAS WHERE HE'S
LIVING OFF FROGS AND LITTLE
BIRDS, THEN HE'LL STALE STAY A
LITTLE SMALLER.
>> Jimmy: WHY DO THEY HAVE THAT
SMILE LIKE THEY'RE MOCKING YOU.
>> THEY HAVEN'T EVOLVED IN
MILLIONS OF YEARS.
SO MILLIONS OF YEARS AGO, THERE
WAS ANIMALS THAT LOOKED JUST
LIKE THIS, AND THE ONLY REASON
THEY HAVEN'T CHANGED IS BECAUSE
THEY HAVEN'T NEEDED TO.
THEY'RE REALLY GOOD PREDATORS.
LET ME SHOW YOU MY FAVORITE
THING.
>> Jimmy: DID YOU HAVE ONE OF
THESE IN YOUR APARTMENT?
>> I'M LIKE, DID I MISS A SCENE
IN "PREDATOR"?
WE HAD ONE OF THESE.
WE HAD A NILE MONITOR, WHICH
LOOKED VERY CLOSE TO THIS BUT HE
HAD A SHORT FACE.
>> YEAH.
SO WITH THESE GUYS --
>> HE BLINKED AND I FREAKED OUT.
>> I GOT TWO NERVOUS GUYS.
SO WITH THESE GUYS ARE
PREDATORS, MY FAVORITE THING
ABOUT THEM IS IF YOU LOOK, THE
NOSE IS ABOVE THE TOP OF THE
HEAD AND THE EYES ARE AT THE TOP
SO WHEN THIS GUY, EVEN IF HE'S
1,000 POUNDS, CAN LIVE UNDER THE
WATER AND ALL YOU'LL SEE THE TWO
LITTLE BUMPS ON THE TOP AND HE
CAN SIT LIKE THIS AND JUST WAIT
AND IF ANYTHING THEN COMES NICE
AND CLOSE, SO, LOOK AT THIS GUY.
SO IF YOU LOOK FROM THE TIP OF
HIS NOSE TO ABOUT HIS BACK FOOT,
ANYTHING IN THAT CIRCLE, HE CAN
GRAB.
SO HE'LL REACH OUT AND YOU LOOK
AT HIS TEETH, ZOOM IN REAL
TIGHT, THEY'RE LIKE LITTLE PEGS.
THERE'S NO SPECIAL TEETH, NO
MORALS OR INCISORS.
THEY'RE ONLY FOR GRABBING.
ONCE THEY GET AHOLD OF YOU,
THAT'S IT.
THEY GOT YOU.
BUT THEY CAN'T TAKE BITES.
IF IT'S NOT BITE-SIZE, THEY TAKE
IT IN THE WATER, TRY TO SOFTEN
IT UP.
HAVE YOU HEARD OF THE DEATH
ROLL?
>> YEAH.
>> THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE DOING,
BASICALLY TAKING SOMETHING
THAT'S BIG AND REALLY TRYING TO
GET A BITE-SIZE CHUNK.
>> Jimmy: THEY'RE DROWNING IT.
>> THEY DON'T CARE.
THEY KNOW WHEN THEY'VE GOT YOU,
THEY'RE GOING TO GET YOU
EVENTUALLY.
WHEN THEY'VE GOT YOU, THEY KNOW
IT'S OVER.
THE DEATH ROLL IS TO GET A
CHUNK.
THERE'S NO POINT IN KILLING
SOMETHING REALLY BIG IF THEY
CAN'T EAT IT SO THEY'LL GRAB IT,
BRING IT DOWN AND TRY TO SPIN
JUST BECAUSE IT WILL RIP A CHUNK
OFF THEY CAN SWALLOW.
>> Jimmy: THIS ONE IN
PARTICULAR, HOW LONG BEFORE IT
GROWS INTO A FULL-SIZE
KELLEYANNE CONWAY?
>> IF HE EATS A LOT, IT COULD BE
ABOUT A YEAR.
DO YOU WANT TO HOLD THIS GUY?
>> Jimmy: NOPE.
KEEGAN-MICHAEL WILL HOLD IT.
>> LET ME BRING THE FRIENDLIER
SIZE VERSION.
>> Jimmy: OH, LOOK AT THAT.
LUNCH.
ALL RIGHT.
>> NOW.
>> Jimmy: THAT IS -- ARE THEY
GOING TO GET PROGRESSIVELY
SMALLER?
>> HERE YOU GO.
YOU GRAB HERE.
GRAB THE TAIL THERE.
THUMB DOWN BECAUSE IT CAN BITE
YOU.
>> Jimmy: OH, GREAT.
THANKS.
>> NOW YOU'RE A GATOR WRANGLER.
>> Jimmy: DON'T SAY HE CAN BITE
YOU BEFORE.
>> YOU GOT IT, JIMMY.
YOU TRICK -- I DIDN'T REALIZE
YOU WERE GOING TO SAY YES TO THE
BIGGER ONE.
BUT I CAN LET YOU HOLD THIS ONE.
>> I COULD HAVE GONE FOR THE
JOKE BUT THAT'S HOW MUCH I LIKE
ANIMALS.
>> Jimmy: YOU WANT TO HOLD THIS
ONE?
SPEND A LITTLE TIME WITH THAT
GUY.
>> HAND UP AT THE FRONT, MAKE
HIM FEEL COMFORTABLE.
HE WILL BITE YOU IF YOU LET HIM.
>> Jimmy: IF THAT BITES, DOES IT
HURT?
>> YEAH, THAT GUY WILL HURT YOU.
>> THOSE ARE LIKE STRAIGHT-UP
NEEDLES IN HIS MOUTH.
>> IT WILL HURT ENOUGH THAT IT
WILL BRUISE A BIT, MAYBE A
LITTLE BIT OF BLOOD, BUT THE
OTHER GUY, HE'S BIG ENOUGH TO
TAKE A CHUNK OFF.
>> HE'S GOT NICE EYES.
>> I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN GET
REALLY CLOSE IN THE CAMERA.
YOU CAN SEE THESE GUYS ARE
AQUATIC.
SEE THAT WEBBED FOOT.
THESE GUYS ARE EXCELLENT IN THE
WATER.
IF YOU OPEN THIS HAND A LITTLE
BIT, YOU CAN SEE HE'S LIKE A BIG
RUDDER.
DO YOU KNOW THESE MEN BEHIND
YOU?
I THINK HE WANTS THIS.
SO NEXT ANIMAL.
WE GOT SOMETHING, JIMMY, I THINK
WHAT'S THIS?
I WAS WRONG.
THAT IS NOT AN ALLIGATOR.
NOW THIS IS A --
>> Jimmy: YOU FOUND THAT IN THE
ALLEY, DIDN'T YOU?
>> THIS IS A HYRAX OR ROCK
DUSSY.
>> Jimmy: THAT A POKEMON OR AN
ANIMAL.
>> WHAT DO YOU THINK HIS CLOSEST
RELATIVE?
>> WOMBAT.
>> IT IS CLOSEST RELATED TO AN
ELEPHANT.
THEIR KNOWS IS VERY SIMILAR TO
AN ELEPHANT'S TRUNK.
>> Jimmy: NO, IT'S NOT.
>> ANATOMICALLY.
I THINK YOU'D HAVE TO BE A
TAXONOMIST.
SO THEY'RE REALLY CUTE, FUN.
>> Jimmy: THAT IS A CUTE ONE.
>> WHERE DO THEY LIVE?
>> AFRICA.
IN LITTLE ROCKY OUTCROPS.
IN GROUPS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY IN
AFRICA THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS
THAT LIKE TO EAT SOMETHING THIS
SIZE SO THEY USE EVERY EYEBALL
THEY CAN.
IF ANYTHING DANGEROUS COMES
ALONG, THEY WHISTLE.
AND THEN IT MEANS, DANGEROUS
THINGS ARE COMING AND THEY'LL GO
HIDING.
>> Jimmy: THIS WOULD MAKE AN
EXCELLENT STOCKING STUFFER,
WOULDN'T IT?
ARE YOU ALLOWED TO HAVE THESE AS
PETS?
>> YOU PROBABLY ARE ALLOWED.
NAY WOULDN'T MAKE GREAT PETS.
NONE OF THESE EXOTIC ANIMALS
MAKE GOOD PETS AND THIS GUY
WANTS TO LIVE IN A LITTLE CAVE
IN SOME ROCKS SO HE WOULDN'T BE
A FUN PET TO HAVE.
>> Jimmy: OKAY.
ALL RIGHT.
WELL, SO FAR, THE ANIMALS ARE
NOT TOO TERRIFYING.
>> THESE ARE FUN ANIMALS.
YOU KNOW ME.
JIMMY, COME AROUND.
BRING THIS WITH YOU.
AND AIM IT.
WATCH.
DON'T SPILL.
COME ON OUT HERE.
HI.
COME HERE.
JIMMY, I NEED SOME OF THAT FOOD.
AIM IT OUT TO THIS GUY.
THESE ARE OSTRICH.
.
>> Jimmy: THERE YOU GO,
OSTRICHES, ENJOY THAT FOOD.
EAT UP.
THEY HAVE NO MANNERS AT ALL, DO
THEY?
>> THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
NOW YOU CAN HOLD HIM.
>> Jimmy: GUYS, I GOT SOME OF
THIS STUFF FOR YOU.
OH, YEAH.
THERE YOU GO.
>> ARE THEY GOING TO GO AND GET
PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE?
>> THEY'LL STAY WITH THE FOOD.
>> THAT GUY'S EXPLORING.
>> KEEGAN, COME ON UP.
WHILE THEY'RE EATING, YOU CAN
FEEL HOW SOFT THEY ARE.
THIS GUY'S ONLY ABOUT THREE
MONTHS OLD.
THE BIG MALES CAN BE 250 POUNDS
AND THEY'LL STAND UP OVER MY
HEAD.
>> Jimmy: ARE THEY REALLY DUMB?
>> VERY BIG.
ANOTHER INTERESTING THING ABOUT
THESE GUYS IS PEOPLE THINK,
THEY'RE JUST A BIRD.
BUT THEY CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS.
YOU SEE THAT BIG TOE DOWN THERE?
>> HE AIN'T PLAYING.
>> SO MOST OF THEIR WEIGHT IS IN
THEIR LEGS SO THEIR ABILITY TO
KICK IS UNBELIEVABLE AND THAT
BIG TOE, THAT NAIL, WILL BECOME
THREE TO FOUR INCHES LONG SO
WHEN THEY FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE TO
DEFEND THEIR TERRITORY, THEY CAN
ACTUALLY BE QUITE AGGRESSIVE.
>> I'M GLADD YOU TOLD ME THAT.
>> Jimmy: THIS IS THE WEIRDEST
EATING I'VE EVER SEEN.
>> DO YOU WANT TO TOUCH HIM
WHILE HE EATS?
>> Jimmy: NO, I DON'T WANT TO
TOUCH ANY OF THE ANIMALS.
>> THEY LOOK A LOT IKE
DINOSAURS.
THESE GUYS ARE CLOSELY RELATED
TO DINOSAURS.
WE THINK ALL DINOSAURS EVOLVED
INTO BIRDS.
>> Jimmy: COULD THE ALLIGATOR T
BIG ONE, EAT THESE TWO?
>> OH, YEAH.
>> Jimmy: COULD WE GET HIM OUT
HERE?
I DON'T KNOW, IT'S JUST A --
IT'S HAKUNA MATATA.
>> THAT WOULD BE A RATINGS
SWEEP.
KEY, AND THERE'S A GIRAFFE IN
OUR STUDIO, A BABY GIRAFFE,
YEAH?
>> THIS IS A BABY GIRAFFE, ABOUT
FIVE MONTHS OLD.
>> Jimmy: THANK YOU FOR THE
FLOWERS.
>> HE'S GOING TO TRY TO EAT THIS
MAYBE.
FIRST THING YOU'LL NOTICE IS
THAT HE'S GOT A VERY BIG, LONG
TONGUE.
HIS TONGUE CAN BE 21 INCHES.
>> REALLY.
>> Jimmy: WOW.
>> THEY HAVE SOMETHING
INTERESTING IN THEIR ABILITY TO
EAT.
IN AFRICA, A LOT OF THE LEAVES
HAVE THORNS ALL OVER THEM AND
THEY RELEASE A TANNIN SO ANIMALS
CAN'T EAT THEM, WHEREAS HIS
MOUTH HAS THICK, THICK SKIN, SO
HE DOESN'T GET RIPRICKED BY THE
THORNS AND HE CAN EAT THOSE
LEAVES.
>> THESE ARE NICE SOFT AMERICAN
LEAVES.
>> WHAT YOU'RE SEEING IS A YOUNG
BOY, SUPER CURIOUS, SUPER
INTERESTED.
>> HE'S JUST CHECKING EVERYTHING
OUT.
>> INTERESTING THING ABOUT BABY
GIRAFFES IS THAT THEY --
>> Jimmy: HI.
HOW YOU DOING?
HE TOLD ME NOT TO PET YOU.
>> THEY HAVE SENSITIVE FUR.
IF YOU REACH OUT AND PET HIM, IT
MAY STARTLE HIM AND THEY WANT TO
PLAY.
HE WAS BORN AROUND PEOPLE, BEEN
NOTHING BUT TREATED AMAZINGLY BY
PEOPLE SO HE THINKS WE'RE ALL
HIS FRIENDS.
YOU CAN SEE ALL THIS ACTION.
>> Jimmy: WE BARELY EVEN KNOW
HIM.
WHY WOULD HE THINK WE'RE HIS
FRIENDS?
>> KIDS ALWAYS TRUST PEOPLE.
INTERESTING FOR BABIES.
MOMS GIVE BIRTH STANDING UP, SO
A BABY WHEN THEY'RE BORN, DROPS
OVER FIVE FEET.
>> Jimmy: REALLY?
>> AND SO THEY CAN ACTUALLY GET
UP AND RUN WITHIN AN HOUR.
>> BABY RUN FAST AFTER AN HOUR?
>> YEAH, THESE ARE REAL FAST
ANIMALS.
WHEN THEY GET OLDER, THEY CAN
RUN 65 KILOMETERS AN HOUR.
>> Jimmy: IF ONLY I KNEW WHAT
THAT MEANT IN MILES, I'D BE VERY
IMPRESSED, I'M SURE.
>> I'D DO THE CONVERSION BUT I'M
CANADIAN.
>> MAYBE THE ARGENTINIAN KNOWS.
>> GIRAFFE POPULATION HAS BEEN
DECREASING BY 40% SO THEY ARE
SUSCEPTIBLE TO EXTINCTION MOSTLY
BECAUSE THEY HAVE LAND USE
ISSUES.
THERE'S ENCROACHMENT IN WILD
SPACES SO THESE GUYS ARE VERY
VULNERABLE TO THAT.
>> Jimmy: WOW.
>> IF YOU LIKE THESE GUYS, THIS
IS A GOOD SPECIOUS TO LEARN
ABOUT ALL THE PROBLEMS ANIMALS
FACE IN AFRICA SO GO AND
RESEARCH, GO TO AN ACCREDITED
ZOO, LEARN ABOUT GIRAFFE.
>> Jimmy: HOW MUCH IS THIS ONE?
BECAUSE MY KIDS WOULD LOVE TO
HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
>> ONCE AGAIN, YOU KNOW ME.
THESE DON'T MAKE GOOD PETS AT
ALL.
BECAUSE THEY ARE SO BIG.
THIS IS THE TALLEST ANIMAL ON
THE PLANET.
>> Jimmy: I'M SO SORRY ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENED WITH TOYS "R" US.
>> I HAVE AN INTERESTING
QUESTION.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT A GROUP OF
GIRAFFES IS CALLED?
>> Jimmy: NO.
>> NO.
>> A JOURNEY.
>> A JOURNEY OF GIRAFFES.
>> Jimmy: LIKE THE BAND?
>> EXACTLY LIKE THE BAND.
A HUMAN HAS SEVEN VERTEBRA IN
ITS NECK.
HOW MANY DO YOU THINK A GIRAFFE
HAS?
>> Jimmy: 12.
>> I'M GOING TO SAY LIKE A
HUNDRED.
>> SEVEN.
THE SAME NUMBER AS WE HAVE.
>> IN THAT WHOLE NECK?
>> Jimmy: DOES HE KNOW THAT?
>> I DON'T KNOW IF HE DOES.
ANOTHER FUN THING.
LOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS HORNS
THERE, NICE TUFT.
AS HE GETS OLDER, THOSE TUFTS
ARE GOING TO GO BALD, BECAUSE OF
ALL OF THE WRESTLING AND THE
SPARRING HE LIKES TO DO.
IS THAT'S HOW YOU CAN TELL THE
SEX OF A GIRAFFE WHEN YOU SEE
THEM IN THE WILD.
IF THEY HAVE BALD HORNS, THEY'RE
MALES.
AND IF THEY HAVE THOSE TUFTS,
USUALLY FEMALES.
>> Jimmy: JUST LIKE HUMANS.
BALD MEN AND HAIRY WOMEN.
THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.
>> HE'S A GROWING BOY.
>> ANOTHER INTERESTING FACT IS
THEIR HEART CAN BE TWO FEET AND
25 POUNDS.
>> Jimmy: HOLD ON.
TWO FEET AND 25 POUNDS?
THAT'S A BIG HEART.
>> BECAUSE IT'S GOT TO PUMP ALL
THE WAY UP TO THAT BIG HEAD
THERE.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
WOW.
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL -- DOES IT
COME IN OTHER PATTERNS AS WELL?
OH.
I WAS A LITTLE -- YEAH.
>> IT'S A LOT LIKE A
FINGERPRINT.
THEIR PATTERNS ARE UNIQUE SO
THAT PATTERN IS COMPLETELY HIS
OWN.
>> Jimmy: RIGHT.
>> THAT'S GREAT.
HEY, BIG GUY.
>> Jimmy: WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A
BREAK.
"ANIMAL BITES WITH DAVE SALMONI"
IS ON FACEBOOK WATCH.
WILL YOU HAVE THE GIRAFFE ON
THAT?
>> I HOPE SO.
I'LL INVITE HIM.
>> Jimmy: WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK
WHAT'S THIS, DAVE?
>> IT'S AN ALPACA.
>> Jimmy: IT LOOKS LIKE A
STUFFED ANIMAL.
>> IT FEELS LIKE A STUFFED
ANIMAL.
>> Jimmy: CAN WE HAVE THIS ONE?
>> YOU CAN.
THESE GUYS ARE A DOMESTIC
ANIMAL.
THIS IS ONE YOU CAN HAVE.
>> Jimmy: THIS IS GOING TO BE MY
GIFT TO YOU AND YOUR WIFE FOR
YOUR WEDDING.
CONGRATULATIONS.
>> HI.
WELCOME HOME.
>> Jimmy: HAPPY WEDDING.
THANKS FOR WATCHING.
GOOD NIGHT, EVERYBODY.
>> YOU'RE GOING TO BE MY KID.
