Il Gallo

An arrogant rooster boasts that it's the world's best alarm clock, and that all its friends are filled with joy when they hear its wake up call. One day, the rooster is approached by a fox that wants to catch it by pretending to be interested in its call. The fox chases the rooster who manages to elude its pursuer, but the fox is crafty. In the end it catches the rooster, and is about to eat it, when the farm dog comes to the rescue and saves the day. The unpleasant adventure teaches the rooster that if you boast about being the best, sooner or later, you may live to regret it.

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.
