Ryan (Greg Cipes) is a lion who wants to go to the wild where his dad Samson (Keifer Sutherland) once lived. When he gets himself shipped to Africa, Samson and his zoo friends must work together to bring him back. Once in Africa, they find themselves in the middle of danger. They have to fight Kazar (William Shatner), an evil wildebeest. However, battling Kazar is nothing compared to the dangers on the other side of the island - a volcano that is on the edge of eruption. Can the animals find Ryan and get out of Africa before the volcano erupts?
