Then there’s Bongo, a wacky doggo who is always surprised and thrilled when he poops. Alongside them we have Lemmy — the wackiest orange in town! This zesty fella thinks he’s a lemon and boy, does he embrace it! In a pond not so far away, there glides a wacky swan named Swan-Z. This hip-hop-loving homie can bust a rhyme like no other. The fifth member of this wacky group is a gander named Paulie who is convinced he is Tony Soprano himself. And last but not least, meet Roger squabbit half-squirrel and half-rabbit.

FINNX
A WACKY FOX
In a forest not so far away, resides a wacky fox with a nervous tic (not one) called Finnx. With his twitchy ears and perpetually frazzled expression, Finnx can’t help but obsess over one peculiar thing—his tail’s cleanliness. From dawn till dusk, he frantically scurries around, using his nimble paws to meticulously groom his prized tail. Passersby are left in stitches as they witness this neurotic fox, engaging in the most absurd tail-cleaning rituals. But for Finnx, it’s a matter of big importance, a quest for perfection in a world filled with messy woodland shenanigans. He brings new meaning to the phrase “cleanliness is next to foxiness.” They even made a movie about him called “Fantastic Mr. Finxx”— some guy called Wes Anderson directed it!
BONGO
A WACKY DOGGO
Hold onto your hats, folks, because We got a story about the quirkiest dog you'll ever meet. Meet Bongo, a pup who is always surprised and thrilled when he poops. I mean, this pooch acts like he just won the lottery every time he drops a deuce! He'll prance around in circles, wag his tail like crazy, and give himself a pat on the back (or should I say, butt?).It's like he's discovered the meaning of life in a pile of poop. Even the grumpiest of passersby can't help but crack a smile when they see this ecstatic pup in action. So the next time you're feeling down, just remember Bongo and his unbridled joy for life's simple pleasures. Who knows, maybe a good poop is all we need to turn our day around!
LEMMY
A WACKY ORANGE
Well, well, well... if it isn't the wackiest orange in town! This zesty fella thinks he’s a lemon and boy, does he embrace it! He’s always hanging out with the lemons, trying to blend in and be part of the citrus crew. And what’s even more hilarious? This orange is a die-hard Motörhead fan! Yep, you heard that right. Lemmy would be proud.His best friend is Grapefruit Gaz and together they formed the juiciest Motörhead tribute band, aptly named “Citrushead”—their performances are legendary. Although they emerged from the desert, parched and exhausted, their citrus spirit burned brighter than ever. So, if you ever hear the unmistakable sounds of a Motörhead anthem, don’t forget to pay for the concert ticket.
SWAN-Z
A WACKY SWAN
In a pond not so far away, there glides a wacky swan named Swan-Z. This hip-hop-loving homie can bust a rhyme like no other. Legit hip-hop connoisseur with a taste for 1980s beats. With his trusty boom box always in tow, Swan-Z spends his days honing his rap skills and crafting lyrical masterpieces that could make even the toughest beaks drop. With a ballcap full of rhymes and swagger in his wing flaps, he owns the pond as if it were a stage. Fans from every corner of the pond flock to see his performances. So, remember, if you ever see a swan grooving to Grandmaster Flash or spitting rhymes reminiscent of Run-D.M.C. You've just entered Swan-Z world — produced by MTV. Word up!
PAULIE
A WACKY GANDER
In the offbeat world of waddling geese, there resides a gander named Paulie. He watched Sopranos so many times that HBO sent him a thank you card. Paulie, with his perpetually flapping wings and wide-eyed gaze, is convinced he is Tony Soprano himself. Paulie is on a mission to drive waste management syndicates out of businesses. He usually dines at Artie’s restaurant and sticks to cannoli if no other food exists. They nicknamed him “The Big Don” and affectionately refer to him as the “Geese Corleone.” So, if you spot a gander on a mission to take down imaginary mobsters, caught in the hypnotic grip of “The Sopranos”, be sure not to stick around. Capisce?
