L'Ape

The bear summons all the animals to tell a story about a bee. A young, industrious bee is always the first to return to the hive with the very best nectar, but then one day she spills her bucket so that the hive guard orders her to go back and fill it again. Weary and disgruntled, the bee returns to the field of flowers where she meets a hornet that advises her to leave the hive and live on her own so that she can do as she likes without having to work for the other bees. When the bee is punished again, she decides to follows the hornet's advice and go live on her own, but, in the end, when the hornet and his accomplice, the fly, steal all the nectar she's collected for the winter, she realizes she can't do without her companions. Her fellow bees come to the rescue and save their friend from the two thieves. At last the young, naïve bee learns never to underestimate the work of others and that collaboration is essential in order to work harmoniously.

This series is largely composed of segmented episodes hosted by a bear, and each of these features one or more creatures. One can learn about a creature's life and habits during a question-and-answer session at the end of each episode. This brief educational section covers the featured topic and answers typical questions, such as "Where does an animal live?", "What does it eat?", "What are its enemies?" and "How is its relationship with human beings?"

Locations featured vary from sea, land, and sky... and the creatures in question include many kinds of fish, mammals, insects and birds. On occasion, a featured animal is presented with its own name, while at other times, creatures are presented according to only their species.

Towards the end of the series, multi-segmented stories are presented with human characters in supporting roles. These episodes allow the host to introduce fantastic, imaginary animals, such as the winged horse and the dragon, and also to share information about their prominent roles in mythology. The moral of the series is that because certain animals were looked upon as gods and immortalized in the mythologies of ancient history, we should, therefore, learn to pay better attention to the animal kingdom of today, so as to improve our understanding of the world in which we dwell.
