Pets Corner at London Zoo. Woman approaches a Wallaby with a bowl of food. There is a little Joey in the Wallaby's pouch.

Other residents of Pets Corner aren't interested at all in the cute baby, they ignore it. Narrator makes a few animal related jokes. One of the women keepers laughs. Keepers seen are Iris Dalli and Jean Andrews. Note: there is a note on the cameraman's dope sheet which reads: “Roy - Check Encyclopaedia Britannica - I think I've read somewhere that it's the male that carries the baby.“ So then Cookie may be the father I guess.
