It is a story about animals that get together to find water. Along their journey,lots of funny things happen,and of course, they have a lot of adventures. The animals in the grasslands in Africa are waiting for the coming flood(洪水). However,this year’s flood seems to come later than in other years. The animals become upset(沮丧的) and worried. At the same time,some animals from other places come to the grasslands to look for peace. However,the situation seems worse because the water is becoming less and less. So they decide to look for the river. Finally,they find that people have built a dam(大坝) in order to have a better life. That’s why they don’t have any water to drink. After a long fight with humans,they let the world know that animals are in danger. This film is about environmental matters. The humans are the bad and the animals are the good. This film is to give humans a warning—they must not destroy(毁坏) the home of animals or damage nature in order to improve their own life. Humans should know that animals also have their own world.
