Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to a special taster of our new

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:23,000
premium only story. We hope you like it. Hell Yale, Hello,

3
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,960
I'm Josephine and this is the Animal Tales podcast, home

4
00:00:27,039 --> 00:00:30,640
to over four hundred and fifty stories written just for you.

5
00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:35,000
Our Friday story is especially for our Premium subscribers only.

6
00:00:36,359 --> 00:00:39,719
Ocean is a premium member for my beither, and he

7
00:00:39,719 --> 00:00:43,000
would like a story with a velociraptor, a t rex,

8
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,719
a triceratops, and a wooly mammoth. Don't forget to listen

9
00:00:47,759 --> 00:00:50,719
to the animal facts after the story to learn more

10
00:00:50,759 --> 00:00:54,240
about these creatures. For now, it's time to sit back

11
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:59,439
and get comfy, because it's time to begin. I need

12
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:05,439
four dinosaurs. Ocean was the richest person in the whole

13
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,560
wide world. He'd lost count of how much money he had,

14
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,920
but he thought it was somewhere in the squillions. Having

15
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,120
so much money meant that Ocean could buy almost anything

16
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:22,120
he wanted. So he tried big houses, fast cars, and

17
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:27,799
enormous yachts, but none of those really excited him. What

18
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:33,200
I want is something different, he decided, something so amazing

19
00:01:33,359 --> 00:01:37,480
that nobody else has it or could possibly ever afford it.

20
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,640
But what could something like that be. Ocean thought about

21
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,519
this problem a lot, but whatever he thought of, somebody

22
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,280
else had already done it. He thought about buying a

23
00:01:51,319 --> 00:01:56,680
movie studio, or a rocket ship company, or a car manufacturer,

24
00:01:57,319 --> 00:02:01,519
but all those things had been done before. It wasn't

25
00:02:01,599 --> 00:02:04,480
until he was watching one of his favorite films that

26
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,759
an idea finally fell into place. The film he was

27
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,960
watching was Jurassic Park, where a man builds a theme

28
00:02:13,039 --> 00:02:17,840
park and fills it with dinosaurs. That's what I'm going

29
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,360
to do, Ocean announced loudly. I'm going to build my

30
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:28,199
very own dinosaur park. There's a very good reason nobody

31
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,759
had done this so far. It was practically impossible. But

32
00:02:32,879 --> 00:02:37,560
Ocean had something that just might make the impossible happen. Money,

33
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:42,280
and lots of it. He got together a team of scientists,

34
00:02:42,439 --> 00:02:46,080
boffins and eggheads and explained that he was willing to

35
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,840
spend an entire squillion of his fortune in order to

36
00:02:49,879 --> 00:02:55,680
make his dream happen. Doctor Copprolyte, the lead scientist, made

37
00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:00,360
lots of notes, nodded with enthusiasm, then took her team

38
00:03:00,439 --> 00:03:03,319
away to work out if they thought it could be done.

39
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,400
They got back to report to Ocean. A week later,

40
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,479
What news do you have for me, asked Ocean excitedly.

41
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,800
There's good news and bad news, reported Doctor Copprolite. Seriously,

42
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:25,080
then give me the good news, first, replied Ocean. We

43
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,080
think we've worked out a way to bring dinosaurs back

44
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:32,719
to life, smiled Dr Copprolite with a slightly smug grin.

45
00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:38,439
Well that's excellent news. That's exactly what I wanted to hear,

46
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:45,840
grinned Ocean. So what's the bad news? Doctor Kopprolite pushed

47
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,879
her glasses up her nose and tapped her pen on

48
00:03:48,919 --> 00:03:55,719
her notebook. I'm afraid it's going to be expensive, very expensive.

49
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,520
But that's not a problem, laughed Ocean. I've already told

50
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,879
you I am willing to spend one squillion of my

51
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,639
fortune on this. Surely that's more than enough to fill

52
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:13,879
an entire park full of dinosaurs. Not quite, said Doctor Copprolyte,

53
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:20,399
fidgeting awkwardly. Not an entire park, said Ocean, with disappointment.

54
00:04:21,319 --> 00:04:27,600
Then how many dinosaurs can I have? Er? Four, said

55
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:33,399
Doctor Coprolete. Four was not a lot of dinosaurs, Not

56
00:04:33,519 --> 00:04:38,439
when you're paying one squillion for them, Sir Ocean comforted himself.

57
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,480
With the knowledge that at least it would be four

58
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,120
more dinosaurs than the world currently had at that moment.

59
00:04:45,399 --> 00:04:49,000
Four dinosaurs felt like it would still be an impressive park,

60
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,160
whereas anything less felt like it would be a disappointment.

61
00:04:54,839 --> 00:05:00,680
So it will be four, said Ocean double checking. Definitely

62
00:05:00,759 --> 00:05:10,519
four dinosaurs. That's what you're promising me. Four dinosaurs. Definitely four, sir, confirmed,

63
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,279
Doctor Copprolte. If you'd like to hear more, please join
