3 min

Tim continues riffing on Whitney Cummings calling him out for a zoo photo, defends giving animals a 'pick-me-up,' and drifts into wanting to visit the Amazon meeting of the waters but worrying about leprosy vaccines in Brazil.

In this bit6 moments
  • Tim defends the zoo industry against constant attacks, citing the animal care professionals he's met.
  • Koalas are naturally drugged by the leaves they eat and sleep 20 hours a day anyway, so zoos letting them sleep somewhere profitable makes sense.
  • Visiting natural areas requires luxury accommodations as a priority; Tim's main concern is not being negatively impacted by nature.
  • Tim wants animals and insects to know humans are the boss when visiting expeditions.
  • The Meeting of the Waters in the Amazon where two rivers with different silt gradients meet without mixing is one of the natural world's amazing sights.
  • Brazil still has leprosy, requiring 19 vaccines before traveling there to see the Amazon.
