Bennie Gets Lost at the Zoo

Bennie, a red panda with a love for naps, woke up in Africa instead of his bamboo forest home. Determined, he journeyed back, joined by Mo, a quirky squirrel who mistook him for a fellow squirrel. Emmy the elephant and Fionna the fox led them on detours, believing Bennie to be a faded fox and guiding them to Asia. Along the way, Tommy, the wise tortoise, offered advice, and a close call with tigers nearly derailed Bennie’s hopes. He found the “Panda” exhibit, only to be disheartened by the black and white pandas. Penelope, a resident panda, suggested the “Red Exhibit,” leading Bennie home to his family and the comforting rustle of bamboo.
