Oscar is the nickname given by the narrator (Tim Allen) to a young chimpanzee in his toddler years. He is part of a close-knit tribe of chimpanzees. They occupy a forest territory which is rich in native fruits, nuts, and figs, among other things. The chimps hunt small tree monkeys, and they also eat termites collected with primitive tools made from sticks. They also use rocks as tools to crack nuts. Oscar is tended by his mother, nicknamed Isha, and from her he begins learning many things about how to survive in the jungle. In the chaos of an attempted raid by a rival gang of chimpanzees led by 'Scar', Isha is injured and separated from the group and her son. As told by the narrator, Isha is most probably the victim of a nocturnal leopard.

Le film raconte les aventures d'un jeune chien malamute nommé Nikki et son gentil maître, Andre Dupas. Ils voyagent en canoë dans les Rocheuses canadiennes. Quand Nikki rencontre Neewa, un ourson ayant perdu sa mère, Andre attache les deux animaux ensemble, les jette dans le canoë et fonce dans les rapides. Quand les deux animaux se retrouvent séparés d'Andre, l'improbable duo doit apprendre à survivre dans le monde sauvage. Ce qui est initialement une relation de haine et d'incompatibilité se transforme en une relation de compromis et d'amitié entre espèces. Les deux animaux toujours attachés rencontrent des loups, des lynx, des gloutons, des grizzly et beaucoup d'autres animaux sauvages, photographiés de façon brillante et donnent aux spectateurs un sens réel de vie dans la nature. Quand Neewa commence sa longue hibernation, Nikki entame une chasse désespérée pour la nourriture. Le parfum de l'Homme le mène non pas à l'amical Andre Dupas, mais à Jacques LeBeau un trappeur qui essaye d'abord de le prendre dans un piège puis de l'empoisonner. Mais voyant la vigueur de Nikki, et après l'avoir capturé il le forme comme un chien de combat.

Les manchots empereurs vivent en colonie en Antarctique. Au milieu de leurs congénères, chaque couple de manchots lutte contre les conditions extrêmes pour perpétuer l'espèce et protéger leur petit des nombreux obstacles et dangers qui les guettent. Chaque année est un cycle qui voit la naissance d'un seul petit manchot par couple, dont beaucoup n'atteindront pas l'âge adulte, voire n'auront pas la chance de naître. Outre le grand froid, le vent et les tempêtes, ils affrontent des prédateurs tels que le léopard de mer et le pétrel géant. Les parents alternent entre protection de l'œuf puis du petit dans l'intérieur des terres (plus stable et protégé que la banquise) et pêche sur le littoral. Des kilomètres de marche sont alors nécessaires pour utiliser les avantages de ces deux territoires alors que le manchot, bien plus à l'aise dans l'eau, est incapable de voler et se déplace avec difficulté sur le continent.
