Wild Kratts: Creatures of the Deep Sea

1

PBS KIDS OPENS WORLDS OF

POSSIBILITIES FOR ALL CHILDREN.

THANKS TO PBS STATIONS

AND VIEWERS LIKE YOU.

Wild Kratts!

CHRIS:

We're here in eastern

North America

on the coast

of the Atlantic Ocean.

MARTIN:

At the Woods Hole

Oceanographic Institution,

aboard the research

vessel Atlantis.

It's us, the Kratt Brothers.

I'm Martin.

I'm Chris, and here at the Woods

Hole Oceanographic Institution,

some really important work

is being done.

You see, we humans

know quite a bit

about creatures of

the African savannah.

And we know a lot

about the animals

of the temperate forests.

We even know pretty much

about the creatures

of the rainforests.

And a whole lot about

the coral reefs.

But there's one habitat's

creatures

that humans know

very little about.

Almost nothing really.

And that habitat is

called the deep sea.

Part of the reason is because

it's really hard to get to.

We're just not built for it.

So just like space travel,

we need an awesome,

state of the art deep sea vessel

like this one.

This is Alvin.

Alvin can travel to the

deepest parts of the sea.

It's like another planet,

filled with darkness, hot black

smokers, and volcanic action.

MARTIN:

And when you do get down there

and shed light

on this mysterious,

deep sea creature world,

scientists are

discovering life forms

that we never even knew existed.

CHRIS:

Animals that can do

amazing things

and that have strange and

incredible creature powers.

Imagine if we could discover

the strange creatures

and creature powers

of the deep sea.

BOTH:

What if?

On adventure with

the coolest creatures

From the oceans

to the trees

The Brothers Kratt are going

places you never get to see

Hanging with

their creature friends

Get ready, it's the hour

We're gonna save

some animals today with

Creature Power

Gonna go wild, Wild Kratts

(Muffled grunting)

That's 50 feet, Martin!

A pretty good dive.

(Muffled grunting)

For a human.

But for a sea creature like you,

it's like baby stuff.

(Gasping)

Well, good one, bro!

Aw, but my ears were hurting.

The pressure down

there is crazy.

You made it pretty deep.

See, to about here.

But the ocean's about

three miles deep.

So you'd need to dive

at least 40 skyscrapers more

to get to the bottom.

Are you kidding?

That's impossible.

For us maybe,

but not for sea creatures!

Yeah, you'd need some

serious creature powers

to get down there.

AVIVA:

Hermanos!

It's ready! Come on!

It's time!

Aww, this is it!

Get ready for

an epic journey,

a voyage to a new frontier,

a place where people

have hardly even gone before.

It's mysterious and full

of undiscovered creatures.

We're in!

Lay it on us!

Yeah, maybe I'll

pass on this one.

Okay, we've had problems

reaching the

deep sea before, right?

Uh-huh, yeah.

The Amphisub couldn't

handle the water pressure

in the whale and

squid adventure...

That was close.

And our adventure was cut short

because of power problems

in the yeti crab adventure.

Almost didn't

get out of that one.

Well, we've solved all that.

Koki and I used all

that we've learned

and have come up with

something that we think

can get us to the deepest

depths of the ocean.

And stay there for a while.

Oh, boy!
