Three Capybaras on the Run (vol. I)
Meet our new heroes – the capybaras!
Emmy, Tristan and Raul are three little capybaras. They are good friends and live together in a meadow at the zoo with their flock. One day, the three friends wonder if there is more outside their enclosure than what they can see – what might lie beyond the fence? With courage, skill and a little luck, they manage to escape through the fence and explore the world around them. On their nightly excursions, they get to know the neighbouring animals and experience exciting and fun adventures.
