Since this would be the last time the original members of Animalia Ambassadoria would be hosting an episode, it was decided to do a new episode where they not only talked about news from Animalia and its colonies, but also introduced their new members. While there were those who were sad that the oldest members were leaving, there was plenty of things to keep things from getting too gloomy.

From Animalia "proper" there was a report on another military man that was joining Animalia. While it was known that there were military types joining Animalia, it was on the low end of conversions, whether they were "damaged" by recent wars or otherwise. It was also known that the first real "military man" that had joined Animalia was dogmatically patriotic, and the second was noticeably less so, but the third (and newest) member was somewhere in the middle of those two extremes. He had chosen to become a bull Animalian and was significantly less surprised by the number of problems that the last two had been caught off guard.
On a similar one, two Iraq war veterans had also joined and became horse Animalians, but what made them different was the fact that they had brought with them an Arabian mare for uplifting. They both claimed they had rescued here after the collapse of Saddam's regime, but due to them not having any paperwork this claim was dubious at best. The new bull Animalian, who was also a higher military rank than the two of them, also wasn't able to either confirm or deny this claim. The Arabian mare, after her uplifting, was also unable to confirm or deny their story, so it would leave the two soldier's claims officially Unknown.

Also on the subject of conversions, Dino City had also gotten their first "super-rich" convert. While most of the information was withheld due to a request for privacy by the new member, it was known that he owed a lot of his wealth to the diamond trade. It was also known that, after it was revealed how "blood diamonds" were responsible for funding the 9/11 attacks, he was the first to refuse buying and selling "blood diamonds". While he was one of the first super-rich members, he did get a lot of teasing/attacks from the influx of hippies becoming part of Dino City, mainly by blaming him for the death of the whales and the depletion of the rainforests. But he managed to get the last laugh since most of the hippies were choosing herbivore dinosaurs for their conversion, and he chose to become a Carcharodontosaurus, similar to Mr. M., much to their chagrin and his delight.

Heiya Island was also a feature of the news because of Nurse Manami becoming a wolf Animalian and becoming the unofficial nurse/caretaker for the girls and boys that had been rescued from the human trafficking ring (or the splinter cell, in the case of the boys). But this news was slightly overshadowed by Huoxing's date with Gang, who was the brother of one of the girls rescued. While there were initial attacks on him from pictures of him focusing mainly on his shoes during the entire date, but someone managed to call the attackers out with a pretty clever comeback.
"There's a little something called 'being shy', have you heard of it?"

There was also a new thing on the website that showed Animalian mothers-to-be. While some of them were considered "beautiful", such as Fleur's photo, there were those that were generating more confusion than anything else, like Beacon's photo. What was generating a lot of confusion was the fact that Beacon was a herm, which many were confused how a herm could become pregnant. Fortunately there was a biologist who helped separate true hermaphroditism from what many people had in their head about hermaphrodites.
