NiftyZoo

Once upon a time, very mean people decided to open a new zoo, but not a normal zoo: In this new zoo, there should be only tiny, cute animal babies. They wanted to attract a lot of people to the zoo in order to get a lot of money. So, the bad people started stealing baby animals all over the world. They caught little, poor animal babies in the wild and took them away from their parents - in the Arctic, the desert, in the mountains, on the beach, in the forest and in the jungle. 

The baby animals were put into cages and taken onto a ship. From there, a long journey continued until they would finally reach the zoo – all alone, far away from their parents and siblings. But suddenly the sky became dark. Lightning, thunder - a storm blew the ship over. It broke, began to sink and all the baby animals were blown by the wind into the water, where they paddled hysterically with their little arms out of fear.

Luckily, a group of whales quickly came to the rescue. The whales picked up the baby animals with their big mouths and made huge waves with their big fins, so that the bad animal catchers were swallowed up by the water. The baby animals shook themselves dry and warmed each other. They were very happy, but still did not know how to get back home to their parents. In the mouth of a big whale, it was a bit slippery and dark, so they could not stay there forever. The whales comforted the little baby animals and let them climb onto their backs one by one to dry in the sun. They promised the baby animals to bring them back home.
