The Sounds of the Savanna at Night | Nature's Lullaby

Season 45 Episode 1 | 3m 20s

Elmo and friends discover just how noisy the African savanna can be after dark — from roaring lions and grumbling hippos to laughing hyenas. Then, a lullaby turns those unfamiliar nighttime sounds into a beautiful chorus of nature.
