All the animals are confused: King Lion has disappeared. Who will rule them now? Suddenly Little Lizard runs over the river. ‘A miracle!’ the animals shout and they seize Little Lizard and put him on the flower throne. Little Lizard doesn’t comprehend at all but he is glad that the animals bring him flies. When he is stuffed, he wants to leave. The animals don’t let him go. Then Baby Lion roars as hard as he can and explains that his father has died, suffocated by the animals’ attentions. If they really love Little Lizard, they have to free him!
