Synopsis:

Maurice is a Penguin that was raised in the jungle by a Tiger mother after his egg was tossed into the sea from the South Pole and made it's way to the jungle. Maurice even goes so far as to paint stripes on himself so that he resembles a Tiger. He considers himself the 'Great Tiger Warrior'. Maurice also has an adopted son - a Tiger Fish named Junior. Maurice and Junior share their jungle home with a variety of characters. Fred - A Warthog that has an Elvis style hairdo and who loves to sign his words rather than speak them. Miguel - A Gorilla that doesn't say very much. Gilbert - A funny little Tarsier that is content to stay on the tree branch he's lived on for the past several years. He's also very nervous and twitchy. Al & Bob - Two funny Toads. One day a pair of Penguins arrive in the jungle named Ping and Pong. They came in search of the 'Great Tiger Warrior' (Maurice) in hopes that he could help their community of Penguins who have been taken over by a group of mean Walruses. Convinced that he's up for the challenge Maurice heads back to the South Pole with Ping and Pong and his son Junior. Their friends Fred, Miguel, Gilbert, Al and Bob also come along in hopes that they could help out. Along the way they meet up with a bat named Batricia who happens to be afraid of the dark. The group makes it's way to the South Pole where they find a community of Penguins who are forced to be slaves to the Walrus group, otherwise the Walruses will destroy all of the Penguin eggs.
