## Trivia

* This is the first episode for a few of things.
	+ The first episode for the series introducing almost every main character.
	+ The first episode where the viewers get an inside view of what the Animal Rescue Center looks like.
	+ The first episode Baby Jaguar and Diego zipline after Alicia says "Go, Diego, Go!".
	+ Starting with this episode, Alicia is voiced by Constanza Sperakis. She made her debut in Big Sister Dora.
	+ Baby Jaguar is still voiced by Thomas Sharkey, but this is the first episode where one gets to hear Baby Jaguar speak. He previously meowed and growled during Seasons 3-4 of *Dora the Explorer*.
	+ The very first episode Diego sings the "Al Rescate" song.
* Baby Jaguar is the one who starts off this episode instead of Diego.
* This series is a spin-off of *Dora the Explorer*. Diego has almost everything that Dora has. He can speak Spanish and speaks to the viewers.
* Unlike in *Dora the Explorer*, Diego is now voiced by Jake T. Austin in this show, succeeding brothers Andres and Felipe Dieppa, and Gabriel Alvarez. He already made his debut as Diego's new voice in Dora and Diego to the Rescue!.
	+ He would continue the role for Seasons 1-3 of *Go, Diego, Go!*, as well as in Dora Saves the Mermaids and Season 5 of *Dora the Explorer*.
	+ Contrary to how Diego's voice by both Andres and Felipe Dieppa, as well as Gabriel Alvarez, were all similar to one another, his voice by Jake T. Austin sounded completely different. When Diego was voiced by the previous three actors, he had a voice similar to that of either a preteen or teenager. However, with Jake T. Austin (and all actors succeeding him) taking over, Diego now has a higher-pitched, pre-pubescent voice similar to that of a young child, mostly likely to fit his age of 8.
* This episode premiered at 8:00pm on Nickelodeon. That same day, Nick Jr. did a *Dora the Explorer* marathon to promote the series premiere of *Go, Diego, Go!* with the last episode on the schedule being the premiere of Dora & Diego to the Rescue at 1:30pm. The other episodes during the marathon (in order) were Meet Diego!, Baseball Boots, Boots' Special Day, Dora Saves the Game, Big Sister Dora, Super Babies, Catch the Babies, Job Day, and The Super Silly Fiesta.
	+ Coincidentally, all of the those episodes feature Diego in them (with the exception of Super Babies)

* This is the only episode where Diego had to clap three times before saying "Freeze, Bobos!" to stop the Bobo Brothers. It will never be used again in the future episodes.

## Goof/Error

* After Baby Jaguar finds Diego, the plants on the bottom right side disappear.
