What is The Wild Ones about?
After a catastrophic event leaves the city in ruins and humans have vanished, Scamp, a dog from a pet care centre, must lead his fellow animals—Chandelier the cat, Punzel the rabbit, Patticake the dachshund, Falstaff the parrot, and hamsters Nudge and Wink—through a perilous journey. Facing the dangers of the wild and the menacing 'Things' that roam the city, they strive to find safety and a new home, discovering their own resilience and wildness along the way.
