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 purple tongue to pull away the branches), and follow the rumors from these rescued animals about Okapi's brother's location.

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.

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. | |||||||
66 | 7 | "All Aboard the Giant Panda Express!" | George Chialtas and Allan Jacobsen | Jorge Aguirre | Carol Delmindo Datuin and Ysty Veluz | March 15, 2010 | 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. | |||||||
67 | 8 | "Bengal Tiger Makes a Wish" | George Chialtas | Juan Carlos Perez | Jose Silverio, Kuni Tomita, and Ysty Veluz | March 16, 2010 | 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. | |||||||
68 | 9 | "Leaping Lemurs" | George Chialtas | Jorge Aguirre | Bismarck "Butch" Datuin, Enrico Vilbar Santana, and Jose Silverio | March 17, 2010 | 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 Diego 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. | |||||||
69 | 10 | "Diego Saves the Beavers" | Allan Jacobsen | Rosemary Contreras | Carol Delmindo Datuin and Enrico Vilbar Santana | March 18, 2010 | 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 Brothers 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. | |||||||
70 | 11 | "Ocean Animal Rescuer" | Allan Jacobsen | Jorge Aguirre | Bismarck "Butch" Datuin, Jose Silverio, and Ysty Veluz | April 22, 2010 | 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. | |||||||
71 | 12 | "Welcome Home, Lion Cub" | George Chialtas, Allan Jacobsen, and Henry Lenardin-Madden | Jorge Aguirre | George Chialtas, Carol Delmindo Datuin, Pete Mekis, Edemer Santos, and Ysty Veluz | June 18, 2010 | 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. | |||||||

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:
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 town. 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 crawling out of the town, 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. NOTE: This is a double-length episode in two-parts and the sixth and seventh episode of the fifth season. |
