Jungle Beat

- Season 2

(2009)

Warthog is proud of his lion-like head of hair. He struts proudly around until one lock of hair springs out of place. Warthog does all he can to regain his pristine looks but the more he tries the worse it gets.

Baby Ostrich is tired of being bound to the ever-watchful eye of his mother. He looks up in the sky and sees an eagle soaring high above him; free and majestic. Suddenly Baby Ostrich has a mission, a purpose. Nobody told him ostriches can't fly and even if they did he wouldn't let that little technicality get in his way. He's going to soar with the eagles if it's the last thing he does!

Springbok is out on his morning bounce when suddenly something catches his attention. It is a female springbok. After an embarrassing collision with a rock face Springbok notices a beautiful flower up above. He decides to try and win the female springbok's affections by getting her the flower but this turns out to be a lot more perilous than he could've imagined!

Ant is tasked with taking a leaf back to his anthill. This seems simple enough until nature conspires to make it a task of Herculian proportions.

The day Springbok discovers his echo turns out to be a lot more eventful that one would imagine.

Elephant is happily eating his morning helping of seeds. Happy, that is, until he spots a much bigger meal in a tree high overhead. He will do anything to get to the enticing fruit, even change the evolution of trees.

Firefly has had a long, hard day and as the sun sets he heads home for a sleep. The trouble is his light keeps shining in his eyes so he can't fall asleep. After much trying Firefly finally manages to put his light out. Unfortunately it's only now that Firefly realizes he's scared of the dark. How's he going to get his light back on again?

Chameleon is very proud of his pristine white complexion. When he steps into a puddle of mud he does all he can to get clean again only to end up further and further from white. Finally he manages to clean up only to realize he enjoyed having a bit of colour, so how's he going to get it back?

Giraffe has a stiff neck. This is a particularly large concern for Giraffe as he is mostly neck as it is. He tries everything to get his neck back to normal, but things get a lot worse before they get better.

Tortoise's day takes a serious turn for the weird when his shell gets a puncture and deflates. Not only that but in his attempts to get out of his limp shell he knocks an egg out of its nest. His attention turns to helping the egg return home during which his deflated shell proves surprising useful.

All frog wants to do is go for a nice cool swim in his stream, but for some reason he cannot seem to get into the water. From sap sticking to his feet to errant lily pads everything seems to be conspiring to keep him dry. That is until...

Monkey has found a coconut which he is very eager to eat. This turns out to be harder than he anticipated. Try as he might he just cannot get it open until...

Bee is bored. Bored, bored, bored. The swarm are looking for a new place to set up their hive and it's turning out to be quite a long journey. Bee tries to keep himself amused but only manages to annoy the rest of the swarm.
