As the animal families escape the drought, the land returns to its former beauty. New life is born, old rivalries are laid to rest and new alliances are forged.

As the land dries, everyone struggles to find water. The hippos get trapped in the shrinking lake, and Nalla the elephant finds a clever solution to quench everyone’s thirst.

The search for a home brings tragedy and triumph as baby hippo Mafuta faces new dangers. Crocodile Magamba defends her hatchlings, and Duma the cheetah struggles to make friends.

The drama now centres around the river where enchanting new characters, such as an adorable baby hippo, meet old favourites. Bonds of kinship are tested as adventures continue.

A great fire leaves homes destroyed and families separated. Our animal characters must find new ways to survive in an unrecognisable and inhospitable landscape.

All our animal families make the most of the good times when a new oasis brings untold riches. But they face devastation when a towering inferno takes over. Will anyone survive?
