The pilot episode had a viewership of almost 5.4 million. Yet the last episode of Season 2 had only 0.44 million. So I'm going to air the question that most of you must also be wondering; WHAT HAPPENED?!? Why did a show that should have done so well do so bad? Because on Season 2 they brought Christmas, which i belive doens't make sense for animals from Africa to celebrate this kind of event. And on Season 3 they brought damn Asian animals. It's not that i don't like them, mostly with Chulunn, Ora and Mama, but this is just not accurate. They even got some animals size wrong. I don't really think the complaint about Asian animals is fair. It isn't like they had these animals randomly appear in Africa, the Guard came to them on their journey. You can quibble with the reality of them making and surviving this journey if you want to go beyond the scope of the show, but not really the animals they meet in the proper environments along the way.

As for the Christmas episode, that is a staple in many a cartoon, even ones with animals as the protagonists. I don't know what Africa has to do with this complaint, either, since there are many Christians living there. If anthropormophized animals were going to celebrate anything resembling a human holiday, Christmas makes just as much sense as any other.
