2. Explanation
I chose a picture of a cartoon, Henry the
Hippo, because he was well known and was
the mascot of Fun Jungle, a theme park and
zoo in one. The money sign represents the
owner of Fun Jungle, who only cared about
money. The picture of the waterfall
represents the huge waterfall in Fun Jungle.
3. This is the picture of the gates to
Fun Jungle, which is a place
that is a combination of a zoo
and a theme park. The well-
known Henry the Hippo is
found dead in his habitat called
“Hippo River”. A boy by the
name of Teddy whose parents
both work at Fun Jungle wants
to know why Henry died. The
owner of Fun Jungle, JJ
McCracken doesn't want any
bad publicity to hurt ticket and
merchandise sales. Summer, JJ
McCracken’s daughter, also
wants to know why Henry died
and Martin del Gatos is head of
security at Fun Jungle.
The owner, J.J. McCracken gives
names to certain animals to
make it special and to sell a lot
of merchandise.
4. Doc is the vet that takes care of the
animals’ health and does an
autopsy on Henry. The doctor
discovers that the hippo was
murdered because there were
many, tiny holes in Henry’s
intestines. It is uncertain what
caused the holes. JJ McCracken
doesn’t want Fun Jungle to loose
money from the bad publicity and
decides to tell the press that
Henry died of natural causes.
Teddy overhears the conversation
and decides to find out what
happened.
This picture of a rock with many little
holes in it is similar to what
Henry's intestines looked like.
5. Teddy and Summer decide to
go to Hippo River. Hippo River,
they discovered was already
cleaned. At the bottom of the
river, Summer found a jack
that had been filed and the
points were very sharp. This
was the murder weapon.
The picture of the jack is
similar to the one that killed
Henry, but with sharper tips.
6. Teddy and Summer showed
Doc the jack. Doc didn’t really
seem to care and was busy
doing an autopsy on a jaguar.
Doc seemed nervous that
there were now two dead
animals. Teddy heard some
other person in the room
with Doc after leaving the
autopsy room.
This is an example of one of
the instruments that Doc
used on Henry the Hippo’s
autopsy.
7. Doc discovers evidence that Martin,
head of security, was using the
animals to smuggle emeralds from
Venezuela. Doc gives a flash drive
to Teddy with detailed accounts:
dates, names, places, photos,
everything. The flash drive proves that
Martin is the killer of Henry the
Hippo. Martin chases Teddy to take
back the flash drive. Teddy runs to JJ
McCracken to tell him that Martin is
the killer. Martin is captured and
walks away in handcuffs
The picture of the flash drive is similar
to the one that held all of the
evidence that Martin was the killer.
