Go, Diego, Go! is an American animated educational interactive children's television program that premiered on Nickelodeon on September 6, 2005 in the United States. Created and executive produced by Chris Gifford and Valerie Walsh Valdes, the series is a spin-off of Dora the Explorer and follows Dora's cousin Diego, an 8-year-old boy whose adventures frequently involve rescuing animals and protecting their environment.

The series which aired for five seasons consisting of 74 episodes premiered in 2005 at 8:00 p.m. The show aired in reruns on "Nick on CBS" for 11 months and 3 weeks from September 17, 2005 to September 9, 2006.

The series received favorable reviews from critics and garnered particular acclaim for its portrayal of a bilingual Latino lead character, earning a total of four NAACP Image Award nominations for "Outstanding Children's Program" from 2008 to 2012, as well as earning Imagen Award and Young Artist Award nominations for Jake T. Austin for his role as the voice of Diego.

Premise

Diego with Baby Jaguar
Diego and Baby Jaguar

The show features eight-year-old Diego (voiced by Jake T. Austin, seasons 1–3; Matt Hunter, season 4; Brandon Zambrano, season 5) who rescues animals around the world. His cousin is Dora (Kathleen Herles) from Dora the Explorer, as revealed in multiple shows, usually without Boots by her side. Diego was first introduced in an episode of Dora the Explorer entitled "Meet Diego!" (originally voiced by brothers Andres and Felipe Dieppa). Diego has a jaguar companion named Baby Jaguar (voiced by Thomas Sharkey) who assists him in rescuing the animals. Baby Jaguar also appears in Dora the Explorer along with Diego, but inconsistently; on Go, Diego, Go! he takes on a more active role, and is able to speak. Backpack, Dora's backpack (Sasha Toro) she helps out to get the objects inside of her where Dora needs, and Map, Dora's map (Marc Weiner), he shows where Dora and Diego had to go.

Diego is Dora's cousin, Dora appears in some episodes in the series, usually without Boots. Diego's older sister, Alicia (voiced by Constanza Sperakis, Seasons 1–2 and on episode of Season 3, Serena Kerrigan, Season 3, Gabriela Aisenberg, Seasons 4–5), is a computer whiz and also bilingual, she directs the animal rescue calls that come into the center. She also assists Diego in helping the animals they love. Alicia is responsible and kindhearted and always kind to her little brother.

Diego's parents are described as animal scientists; they appear in several episodes, but their names are never given. There is also one other older sister, Daisy, voiced by Iliana Friedson-Trujillo (which makes Alicia a middle child), who only appears in "The Bobo's Mother's Day!" with Diego stating that she is home from college. Daisy celebrated her 15th birthday in "Dora the Explorer" Season 4, Episode 2 "Daisy, La Quinceañera," which aired on October 1, 2004. Diego states that Daisy is home from college in "Go, Diego, Go!" Season 3, Episode 4 "The Bobo's Mother's Day," which aired on May 9, 2008. That would make Daisy 18. Daisy appears in three "Dora the Explorer" episodes: "Dora Saves the Game," as a cameo in "Dora's Pirate Adventure," and "Daisy, La Quinceanera." This makes Diego the youngest child and the only son to his parents.

In most episodes, Diego hears an animal's moan for help at his rainforest Animal Rescue Center. With help from his friends, gadgets, and viewers at home, he sets out to rescue the animal (To save and help the animal).

Other characters include Click (voiced by Rosie Perez), a camera that locates the animal calling for help; Rescue Pack (voiced by Keeler Sandhaus), a messenger bag Diego wears that can transform into any object; and two troublesome spider monkeys named the Bobo Brothers (voiced by Jose Zelaya), who can be stopped by shouting "Freeze, Bobos!" and Diego often encourages viewers to help him stop them by shouting it. While they might be compared to Swiper from Dora, they really don't cause trouble for Diego on purpose and they apologize after doing so.

There are a few recurring animal friends that are normally rescued by Diego in their first appearance but appear later to return the favor and help Diego out. The most common of these is Linda the Llama (voiced by Laura Abreu), who has appeared prominently in four episodes and made a cameo appearance in "Three Little Condors." Just like Dora the Explorer, the show teaches preschool-age children the Spanish language. However, the show takes a lesser approach to this and focuses more on the teaching of various animals.

Kelly Ripa, and her son, Michael Consuelos both guest star as Mommy Maned Wolf and her Pup.

In each episode of Go, Diego, Go! there are several songs and uses of Spanish vocabulary.

Whenever a carnivorous predator (such as anacondas) is featured on the show, its diet is not mentioned, unlike when herbivores are shown (such as marmosets). Notable exceptions to this are when an octopus helping Diego is explicitly shown and discussed eating live crabs, when a baby river dolphin who had tickled Diego eats the crabs heading toward a waterfall; when Tuga (Sea Turtle) eats jellyfish and when Jorge (little Hawk) eats grasshoppers, however, these prey are not anthropomorphised in the same way that other creatures typically are in the series. Whenever a featured animal is threatened with being eaten by a predator, the prey is described as being "afraid" of the predator. Diego's diet is also not mentioned, however, in at least one episode it is suggested that he is not a vegetarian an issue as the majority of animals in the series are portrayed as anthropomorphic.

56 1 "Diego Reunites Hippo and Oxpecker" Allan Jacobsen Brian Bromberg Bismarck Butch Datuin, Allan Jacobsen, and Ysty Veluz September 28, 2009 (2009-09-28) 401
In the grasslands of Africa, Diego was helping Hippopotamus relocate to Hippo Lake, after his old river habitat was being drained by a new neighboring town. Oxpecker, a friend of the Hippopotamus due to their symbiotic relationship (oxpeckers eat bugs off other animals' back to clean them), went to get some water plants from the old river to feed Hippopotamus, but fell in and was being sucked into the drainage pipe. After hearing the Oxpecker's call for help, and locating him via Click, Diego and Hippopotamus make their return journey back, through a field of tall grass (obscuring large rock obstacles, with they avoid with the assistance of a Giraffe giving directions) and across hot terrain (assisted by some elephants, who use water from their trunks to cool the overheating hippopotamus). When they reach the old river, hippopotamus scares away some crocodiles and rescues Oxpecker from the lake by blocking the drainage pipe with his body.
57 2 "Diego's Orangutan Rescue" Henry Lenardin-Madden Juan Carlos Perez Bismarck Butch Datuin, and Allan Jacobsen September 29, 2009 (2009-09-29) 402
In the rainforests of Borneo (Indonesia), Diego united Baby Orangutan, who he found while canoeing along the river, with the orangutan's Mommy and sister in a fruit tree forest that his friend Burgin, a fellow animal rescuer, had been planting. When Baby Orangutan goes into the canoe and loses the oar, he floats out-of-control along with the river current. Diego uses Click to locate Baby orangutan and work out where the river current is taking him. Diego and Big Sister Orangutan swing from branch-to-branch along the river, even through a swinging bamboo obstacle, to follow the canoe. During their travels, Diego has to rescue both Baby Orangutan (using a version of the "follow the leader" game, that Diego taught Baby Orangutan back at the fruit tree forest, to show Baby orangutan how to duck under three naturally occurring river cave overpasses) and then Big Sister Orangutan (pulling her out of the river and then to shore, with a "zip cord" from Rescue Pack and then the assistance of an elephant). Finally, both Diego and Big Sister Orangutan swing over the river and pull Baby Orangutan out of the canoe, just before the canoe crashes on some giant rocks. Once again using the "follow the leader" game to get Baby Orangutan to raise his arms, thereby assisting in his own rescue. They all use the forest's vines to swing back to the fruit tree forest, where Baby Orangutan is united with his family and his favorite fruit.
58 3 "Where is Okapi's Brother?" George Chialtas, and Allan Jacobsen Jorge Aguirre Jose Silverio September 30, 2009 (2009-09-30) 403
In the rainforests of Central Africa, Diego and Alicia were playing "hide-and-seek" with the okapis amongst the trees. However, the lack of hiding spaces, due to logging, causes Okapi and his brother stray too far. Diego takes his Mobile Rescue Unit and follows the lost okapis' fresh footprints (sorting these out from other animals' footprints with his Field Journal) and tries to spot the okapis with his Spotting Scope (looking out for their stripes and long purple tongues). Diego initially finds Okapi hiding behind a rock, in part of the logged forest, but not his Brother. During the search for Okapi's brother, they rescue some animals, a Zebra (who is sinking into wet sand, using the Mobile Rescue Unit's crane) and a baby giraffe (whose head is stuck in a tree, using the Mobil Rescue Unit's pedal-operated lift and Okapi's long blue tongue to pull away the branches), and follow the rumors from these rescued animals about Okapi's brother's location. Diego finds Okapi's brother behind a rock on a mountain (who they rescue from leopards, avoiding them using Okapi's acute hearing as a guide) and return both of them to their African rainforest home.
59 4 "Puffin's Fishing Adventure" George Chialtas, and Allan Jacobsen Rosemary Contreras Carol Delmindo Datuin, and Ysty Veluz October 1, 2009 (2009-10-01) 404
In Greenland, Diego was assisting a puffin (Puffy) babysit ten baby puffins. All of the baby puffins could neither fly, nor swim (due to having no swimming feathers yet), with Diego even having to teach the littlest one how to waddle. After using Click to find out where there were fish for the baby Puffins to eat, i.e. Fish Canyon (where the parent puffins were hunting), and how to get there, they all set off there in Rescue Boat. Whilst going past some giant waves, two of the puffin babies are almost eaten by a seagull when they fall into the water, but Diego frightens the seagull off by making an "Ar, ar!" puffin call and fishes them out of the water using Rescue Boat's ejectable life preserver. Upon hitting some impenetrable ice, they continue by foot over the ice, towards where the whales (which also eat fish) are conjugating (following Diego's papi’s advice by sending the biggest puffin, Puffy, to fly ahead to give directions). They get a lift the rest of the way to Fishy Canyon on a whale's back. When Puffy is attacked by an Orca while diving for fish, Diego uses the clapping sound made by the thrashing of his whale ride's tail to scare the orca away. After Diego calls all the puffin parents together to their babies (again using the puffin call), the Puffin parents decide that Fishy Canyon will be their new home.

61 6 "Diego's Ringed Seal Rescue" Allan Jacobsen, and Henry Lenardin-Madden Rosemary Contreras Enrico Vilbar Santana, and Jose Silverio February 19, 2010 (2010-02-19) 406
In the Arctic, using their snowmobiles, Diego, Alicia, and Baby Jaguar visit a rescue center for ringed seals, needed for when the melting of the baby seals' snow caves leave them unprotected from the elements and polar bears. Upon hearing the distress calls of a baby ringed seal (Susie), and seeing (via Click) that this animal is being menaced by a polar bear as her snow cave melts, Diego transforms his convertible snow mobile into a jet ski to travel there. Upon arrival, Susie wiggles over some intervening sheet thin ice to Diego, a move preventing the polar bear from following. On their journey back, Diego looks after the baby seal, as they navigate on paths through the floating ice (especially when they have to avoid the polar bear again), as Susie searches for food and when they both travel through a snowstorm. Diego even teaches Susie basic seal movements, such as launching itself onto the ice from the water and even wiggling its nose. Close to the Rescue Center, Susie must again avoid the polar bear, the third time, this time by diving in and out of some holes in the ice made by some of the other Rescue Centre ringed seal inhabitants. When the bear gets stuck in one of those holes, Diego suddenly rescues the polar bear as well with the use of a shovel to dig the animal out, warning the bear not to return due to the abundance of those holes in that area. Susie joins the safety of the Rescue Center and the other ringed seal inhabitants, thus completing Diego's mission.
62 7 "All Aboard the Giant Panda Express" Allan Jacobsen Jorge Aguirre Carol Delmindo Datuin, and Ysty Veluz March 15, 2010 (2010-03-15) 405
In the mountains of China, Diego and Baby Jaguar were looking for Giant Pandas, when they heard a distress growling call coming from a hungry panda (Pan Pan), who was slipping off a precipus in his attempts to reach the last piece of bamboo on the mountain. Diego rescues Pan Pan and resolves take him to Bamboo Mountain, where such food is plentiful. Via Diego's video watch, Yang, a fellow animal rescuer at Bamboo Mountain, informs Diego that some pandas, that went looking for bamboo, are also missing, including Pan Pan's grandfather (Grandpa Panda), Pan Pan's mother (Mommy Panda), Pan Pan's baby sister (Baby Panda), and the Panda Cub Twins. Diego and Pan Pan take a train (The Giant Panda Express) and retrieve them, locating them all with Diego's Panda Tracker and then his Spotting Scope (by looking for black and white fur). In the snow fields (first stop), they rescue Grandpa Panda (by waking him up just before a wind-created rolling snow ball was going to hit him). In the tall trees (second stop), they meet Mommy Panda and rescue Baby Panda (caught up a tree that she was using as a vantage point to find bamboo, a tree too thin for the mother to climb, but which Diego can climb using his Sharp Panda Gloves). In the rock caves (third stop), they rescue the Panda Twins (from some clouded leopards, which Grand Pa Panda scares away with his growls). Diego brings all these hungry Pandas, via the train, to their new home on Bamboo Mountain, thus completing his mission.
63 8 "Bengal Tiger Makes a Wish" George Chialtas Juan Carlos Perez Jose Silverio, Kuni Tomita, and Ysty Veluz March 16, 2010 (2010-03-16) 407
In the forests of India, after a big rainstorm, Diego responds to the distress calls of a bengal tiger (Benji), who was caught in a wire, and rescues it. Diego pledges to help this lost tiger achieve his wish to get back to his mother at the magical Wishing Tree. Following Click's directions, they journey to the Wishing Tree, helping several animals along the way. Diego and Benji help some baby parrots, after Benji climbs their tree and removes some branches that have fallen over the baby parrots' nest (the rescued birds subsequently wish that the sun would shine, so that the flowers would open). After swimming across the wild and wavy river, Diego and Benji help a mother duck by scaring away two crocodiles menacing her riverside nest with hatching duckling eggs (the mother duck subsequently wishes the river would calm down, so her babies could go swimming). At the Tiger Temple, they meet Shanti, a fellow animal rescuer, who has always had a wish to open a tiger reserve. They also assist a little tiger to find its way out of the temple, who wishes that there were more tigers to play with. Diego and Benji get to the Wishing Tree, where Benji's mother's wish to see Benji again is granted. Benji (whose original wish was the same as his mother's wish) is allowed to make an additional wish, and he wishes that the wishes made by all of their new friends that they made along their journey were granted. All the animals wishes start be realized, concluding with Shanti and Diego pledging, and then building, a tiger reserve at the Wishing Tree, to provide a safe place for all of the tigers to live.
64 9 "Leaping Lemurs!" George Chialtas Jorge Aguirre Jose Silverio March 17, 2010 (2010-03-17) 408
On the island of Madagascar, Diego and Baby Jaguar are returning some native animals (using Rescue Boat), that had been inappropriately taken away to be used as pets, when they notice that an unhappy sifaka lemur (Sara) cannot find her way back to her family, due to being away too long. Using Click to locate and give directions in order to get to the other sifaka lemurs, Diego and Baby Jaguar endeavour to reunite Sara with her family. They go past the Spiky Trees, where Sara (using her tough hands) and Diego (using his tough Lemur Gloves) climb a spiky tree to rescue a brown lemur whose tail is stuck on a breaking branch's spiky thorns, thus allowing the brown lemur to return to his family. After helping Sara defend herself from a fossa (by hoping around it to make it too dizzy to attack), they then go past the Rocky Caves, where Deigo helps a mouse lemur find his family within those dark caves (using his flash light to locate the lemur's mother by her shining yellow eyes). As they reunite each different species of lemur with their families, they gradually cheer Sara up. Finally, following directions from a group of ring-tailed lemurs, they go to the rainforest and deliver Sara back to her sifaka lemur family, catching up to them by bouncing from tree-to-tree (with Diego using a special bouncing boot feature on his boots to accompany Sara), making Sara super-happy and completing Diego's mission.
65 10 "Diego Saves the Beavers!" Allan Jacobsen Rosemary Contreras Carol Delmindo Datuin, and Enrico Vilbar Santana March 18, 2010 (2010-03-18) 409
In the mountains of Canada, whilst Diego and Billy the Beaver are building a dam to save a chipmunks' home from an overflow due to some recent flood water (caused by the rapid melting of mountain snow). Alicia informs Diego (via his video watch) that Billy's family, who hadn't finished building their dam, were in the path of a oncoming giant river flood wave. Following Click's directions and using a Kayak, created by converting Diego's Rescue Pack, Diego accompanies Billy downstream, and ahead of the oncoming flood wave, avoiding obstacles such as rocks, floating logs, even the Bobo Twins who were mischievously creating whirl pools. At the Water Slide section, Billy saves some frogs by rolling a log to block the approaching water from entering their pond inlet, and at the prickly branches section, Billy rescues a deer by chomping some of the branches entangling it. The mission is completed when Diego and Billy reach the dam of Billy's family and build it up sufficiently to survive the oncoming wave. Alicia arrives with other animals she has saved, who decide to permanently shelter at this dam where it is safe.
66 11 "Ocean Animal Rescuer" Allan Jacobsen Jorge Aguirre Jose Silverio, and Ysty Veluz April 22, 2010 (2010-04-22) 410
Off the coast of Mexico, Bottlenose (a Bottlenose Dolphin) tells Diego (in his Rescue Dinghy) of his dream to be an Animal Rescuer, like Diego and Baby Humpback (the humpback whale), ever since Diego and Baby Humpback both rescued Bottlenose (sinking when stuck in a net, but brought to the surface by Diego and Baby Humpback and then torn free). They remember back to the previous times that both Baby Humpback and Bottlenose used their fast swimming speed to save some baby sea turtles (when Bottlenose and Baby Humpback scared away some menacing sharks) and even Diego himself (when Bottlenose guided Diego and his Rescue Speedboat through the fog and between rocks to get back to his Papi, who had called Diego back home for dinner on his Video Watch). Alerted to an oil spill by Alicia, Diego and Bottlenose spot Baby Humpback (using Diego's Spotting Scope to locate the whale's blowhole spray) trying to warn the coastal animals about the approaching oil all by himself. Bottlenose and Diego (riding on his back) jump three intervening coral reefs to join Baby Humpback, where they combine their effort to splash their tails to ward of the oil, which has now encompassed them all, until Alicia arrives to suck the oil up with an her Oil Vacuum. Upon completing their mission to save Baby Humpback and clean up the oil, they recognise Bottlenose's skills as an Ocean Animal Rescuer.
67 12 "Welcome Home, Lion Cub" Henry Lenardin-Madden Jorge Aguirre Pete Mekis, Edemer Santos, and Ysty Veluz June 18, 2010 (2010-06-18) 411
In the grasslands of Tanzania (in East Africa), at an Africa Animal Rescue center, Diego and Baby Jaguar help a Lion (Daddy Lion) escort his son (Lion Cub) back to their pride, where his mother, brother, sisters, and all his cousins, have organised a welcome back party. While Click is showing them the quickest way to get to the party, they discover that Lion Cub's family are in various forms of trouble along that route. At the river, Daddy Lion catches Baby Lion out of the river just before Baby Lion goes over a waterfall, when the tree branch the animal was hanging off breaks. Further on, Daddy Lion cuts Cousin Lion out of a net, that Diego has released from a tree, and then another net when Lion Cub he gets caught in a similar net trap himself. The Lion Cub, after being realized, in turn cuts down a number of other unsprung net traps. Along the way the Loin Cub is mentored in various skills such as recognizing Lion tracks, creeping and crawling passed sleeping elephants, spotting Lions hiding in the grass (when they meet up with Sister Lion), and roaring loud (to divert a stampede of buffaloes). Upon completing the mission of safely escorting Lion Cub to his party, they realize that Lion Club has become a lot like his father.
68 13 "Diego's International Rescue League" Allan Jacobsen Rosemary Contreras Carol Delmindo Datuin, Gary Hartle, Pete Mekis, Enrico Vilbar Santana, Edemer Santos, Jose Silverio, and Ysty Veluz September 24, 2010 (2010-09-24) 412

Diego and his father (World Animal Rescuer) travel by helicopter to Rescue Island (a special island with different animal habitats from around the world) where Diego and his team (each experienced in different rescue environments: Juma - deserts and grasslands of Africa, Shanti - forests of India, Burgin - ocean waters around the world and rainforests of Borneo (Indonesia), and Yang - mountains of China) are to be tested in order to obtain their World Rescue Badges, thus each officially becoming World Animal Rescuers. The test involves rescuing five different mystery animals eggs, stored in special heated cases, which are hidden around Rescue Island. To start the race Diego's team works in relay to complete an initial traditional obstacle course (tire run - Juma, cargo net crawl - Burgin, balance beam - Yang, zip line - Shanti, and climbing wall - Diego), collecting the first egg upon completion, from which hatches a sulcata tortoise.

  • First Egg - Travelling by Rescue Flyer to the Rescue Island's desert environment, they return the baby sulcata tortoise to her friends. They experience a sand storm (surviving by taking cover like the tortoise and her friends), which necessitates them digging out of the sand the case with the second mystery egg, from which hatches out a platypus.
  • Second Egg - Diego's team all fly to Rescue Island's forest river, where, after Shanti and Diego descend to the river using the Rescue Flyer's rope ladder, they follow the river paths (guided by the platypus's sensing of the other platypuses' vibrations) to return the platypus to his family and recover the third mystery egg from the river (prevented from submerging by Diego and Shanti splashing the river to give it buoyancy), from which hatches a sea krait (a type of sea snake).
  • Third Egg - After Diego's team land on the ocean with the Rescue Flyer (transforming into a Rescue Boat), Burgin and Diego have to avoid losing the sea krait in the big waves (by surfing the waves) and dive to the bottom of the ocean (using Rescue Pack transformed into diving suits) to return the sea krait to her family and locate the fourth egg (saving it from some crabs), from which hatches a Komodo dragon.
  • Fourth Egg - After Diego's team all fly to the top of Rescue Island's rocky mountain environment, they abseil down the side of the mountain, whilst navigating through a rock slide, to return the baby Komodo dragon to his family in a hole on the mountainside. They locate the fifth and final egg of a gentoo penguin in a large mountain cave (alarmed with a booby trap, which they narrowly escape), but, after they discover that the egg was already hatched, they then have to locate the penguin, just in time to catch him as he falls from above off a ledge whilst chasing a butterfly.
  • Fifth Egg - When Diego's team all fly the Rescue Flier to Rescue Island's snowy coast environment, Diego parachutes down (where his Rescue Pack is almost lost in the process, but turns into a balloon and flies back to him), locates the penguin's family (using Juma's GPs map), avoids an avalanche (using Yang's grappling hook rope anchored to a nearby cliff, to swing out of the avalanche's path), and then returns the baby gentoo penguin to his family.

Having completed all five egg missions, returning just before the race deadline, Diego and his team each officially become World Animal Rescuers.

While Diego and Alicia are giving a cable car guided tour of the animal rescue centre to Rosita and Martin, they spot a mother duck's missing duckling in a wounded crocodile's lake enclosure. Diego saves the duckling using Alicia's Lasso as a vine and Alicia then goes off to return the duckling to her mother in Rescue Lake. To dispel Rosita and Martin's misperception that fierce animals are mean, Diego takes the children on a tour of his password-protected (password: "Animales Feroces") Adventure Cave, where Diego has stored numerous mementos and digital images from his adventures with fierce animals, telling various stories of fierce animals that have kept their homes and families safe using their ferocity:

  • While exploring in the rainforest of Central Africa, Diego rescued a Gorilla behaving fiercely because it was caught in a trap. Upon release, the Gorilla then rescues his own three Gorilla babies from two elephants, scaring them away with his fierce gestures (looking fierce, beating his chest and making "Ooh, ooh, ooh!" sounds), which the Gorilla babies start learning to emulate.
  • From their amphibious Rescue Rover, under the ocean waters off the coast of Australia, Diego and Alicia see a speed boat break a blue-ringed octopus's coral reef home. Diego and Alicia (using their glow sticks) assist the blue-ringed octopus (using its fierce display of glowing blue rings, as a warning of his poisonous nature) to ward off some shark predators, and then rebuild the octopus' home.
  • After hearing the distress sounds of a baby grizzly bear while backpacking in Alaska, Diego and his mother locate (with Spotting Scope) and then rescue (with Rescue Pack transformed into a Kayak) the little bear from the wild water of a river. They return the rescued cub to his mother, once they have located the fiercely growling mother and placate her (by Diego and his mother lowering their heads and backing away), who in turn gathers the rest of her other four bear cubs (calling them using her fierce growl) to feed them with fish she catches from the river.
  • In the grasslands of Africa, when the Rescue Rover (that Diego's father is using to help Diego take photo's of animals for his animal science book) gets caught in quick sand, a full-grown bull hippopotamus dislodges it, by giving it a running push (once he has first given his preemptive warning fierce gestures, by stomping his feet, showing his teeth and wiggling his ears), that not only frees the vehicle, but even leaves a dent in it as well. After Diego and his Father in turn rescue the hippo (using the Rescue Rover's crane) when it is stranded in the quick sand as a result of that rescue push, he then saves his own baby from two lionesses, by using his fierce gestures.

At the conclusion of Diego's telling of these five stories, Alicia brings Diego's attention to a distressed jaguar who is lost in the city. Travelling out in his Rescue Rover, Diego repairs the Big Jaguar's injury (extracting a nail from its foot) and then assists Big Jaguar to creep out of the city, thereby avoiding scaring its human inhabitants. Diego takes the Rescue Rover back to the Adventure Cave, where Alicia, Rosita, and Martin have been watching the rescue on the monitor and have put up a new picture on one of the cave walls' screens featuring the Big Jaguar that Diego has just rescued.
