We are in the savannahs of Africa.
“Hey, stop!”
A band of tourists suddenly appears and chases after animals such as zebras and warthogs in a car, absorbed in taking photographs of the continent’s beasts and pressing the shutters of their cameras each second. In the process, an entire chocolate bar falls from the driver’s mouth through the car window… Which animal will win the trophy, now lying on the ground?
“Sniff-sniff, what is this?”
A nearby rufous elephant shrew discovers the snack, which is the size of its body, and is about to take a big bite for a taste, only to have it whisked away by a giraffe: “What’s that? Hand it over!” However, a grivet appears all of a sudden, having climbed a tree to approach the lofty animal, and quickly snatches and unwraps the chocolate bar—too preoccupied with the new treat to notice a lion lurking behind a boulder. The scene changes to show the lion sleeping, with the prized sweet securely held in his front paws. A clever agama coaxes the chocolate bar from the king of beasts with a lullaby and darts away, only to find itself face to face with a warthog. The trophy subsequently changes hands, from a cheetah to an elephant and then a cattle egret. None, however, fully possesses it. The chocolate dwindles in size as it melts in the African heat and in and under the mouths and hooves of the animals among which it is passed around. By the time a gorilla finally gets hold of it, the prize has already melted away, leaving only the wrapping. From rufous elephant shrews to gorillas, animals that have had even a taste of the treat now start chasing after the group of sightseers.
