There was a time when Bamba the Crocodile took a pilgrimage with his family. Hungry and tired, and far from the river, Bamba begged a passing hunterman to return them to their home in the water.

"Mook!" said the hunterman. "You crocodiles are very well known for biting people in the river. I will not take the chance."

But through some surprising turns of fate, the hunterman finds himself deep in the river with his hands between Bamba's great jaws. Unfortunately, man has not always been so good to the earth, and neither plant nor creature will come to his rescue.
