Loyal friends, including an elusive, injured bird with unusual pink eyelids - Flame calls him Hope - support his quest. For quite a while, Flame has sniffed bad humans' scent in Fauna Park, but when their activities affect his special little humans - two orphans - he and his friends decide to take matters into their own paws and claws, because one of the orphans speaks Faunalang - the bush creatures' peculiar language which few humans understand. They make a decision to help the orphans despite all sorts of difficulties. Can they succeed and will the good humans be able to help them in time?
