OK, looks like I am the first to post on this one. Lets hope it is not because I am in thick mode today. Well I have tried translating the animals into different languages as well as the noises that they make. I have had a look at some of the different breeds and have learnt that a frog can breathe through the skin!! I have looked at what animals are connected to each country, but that fell flat with China = dragon. Animal magic was a BBC program with Jonny Morris and was filmed at Bristol Zoo. I have come to the conclusion that I am missing something here. Any ideas?
