The Big 5 Wild Warriors: The Heartstone of Ubuntu

When the sacred Heartstone of Ubuntu is stolen, the Ningizimu Savanna falls silent. Rivers run dry. Animals forget which way is home. And five young warriors — each carrying the spirit of a great South African cultural nation — must answer the call.

Meet Tau the Lion, Qhawe the Leopard, Amahle the Buffalo, Rendani the Elephant, and Kruger the Rhino. Five heroes from five cultures, united by the ancient truth that has always held this land together:

"I am because we are."
