Movie synopsis: The animals in the African savanna surprise: Where does the water remain? Long ago it would have had to come by a gulch from the distant mountains. The thirst also becomes bigger and bigger, the worry, particularly as the last small water hole is defended by fierce buffaloes and rhinoceroses. The courageous earth little man Billy and the peaceful lion Sokrat set out to search the water. Besides, they hit on the Gallic cock Charles who has led a polar bear, a Känguru, a Tasmanian devil and two Galapagos tortoises to Africa. They had to flee from her destroyed home regions to Africa and hope in the Okavango delta for a better life. However, unfortunately, the people have also not spared this last paradise: The hotel keeper Smith left an immense dam and wastes all water for a five-star hotel. Here just the politicians hold a conference for the protection of the environment. The animals answer this challenge with her own conference: The wise female elephant Angie appeals to everything what run, fly, trample or can creep to defend itself. This is the prelude to a tumultuous offensive more fully of animal tricks.
