Il Maiale

In the first part of the episode, a pig volunteers to help a gardener and a goat to keep the public gardens clean. In return, the gardener gives him one of the last two tickets for a soccer match. When he returns home, the pig starts to tidy up his room and empties the wastebasket out of the window, unaware that his ticket is in it. The pig's friend, a cat, finds the ticket and decides to keep it. When he can't find his ticket the pig runs back to the gardens and turns the place upside down. The gardener is furious, but he decides to forgive the pig and gives him the other ticket to the match on the provision that he return for the purpose of tidying up the mess he'd made at the end of the game. And so the cat and the pig go to the stadium and enjoy the game together. In the second part, a family of pigs is out harvesting pumpkins. However, when father pig can't get the fruit to fall off the plant without having it smash to little hits the ground, the youngest piglet comes up with a very simple, but effective method to address this problem. By gathering the fruit carefully, and then tying the pumpkins to a rope and letting them slide gently to the ground, they no longer break. The method works and the family gathers all the pumpkins unscathed, and then load them onto a cart. At this point however, their enthusiasm gets the better of them, and they lose control of a cart going downhill. The cart overturns, and the pumpkins are smashed and spoiled such that all their hard work and effort has gone to waste!

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.
