It was on the Today show this morning and they didn't show the whole thing, so I had to go searching for it. What an awesome story!

What a sweet video. I'm always amazed at the memory animals have, and this is just more proof of that!

Brian is in charge of the Kleenex concession. :)

I checked with my wife on the version she received and neither the lead-in nor the finish were there.
