Summary
The Team sees the other animals living and playing with their friends in Arkansas. They find an Ivory-billed Woodpecker named Tapper, who's pecking on the wood on the tree. He tries to peck the wood to call another Ivory-billed Woodpecker, but it is so far away. So the team must go on top of the Ozark Mountains so that he can peck his beak on the wood to make a loud sound so that his friend can go to him.
