Welcome to Madagascar
Marty the zebra is celebrating his tenth birthday, but life in the zoo isn't all it's cracked up to be. Tired of performing in the same show every day, Marty craves the excitement and freedom of living in the wild. When some crafty Penguins help Marty escape from the zoo, his best friends, Alex the lion, Melman the giraffe and Gloria the hippo set off to find him in what turns out to be a bigger adventure than any of them expected.
Get ready for an unforgettable journey across the ocean, from the streets of New York City to the island of Madagascar. To survive in the wild, the four friends will have to discover their true animal natures and master their instincts. Fortunately, the locals—a band of partying Lemurs—are ready and willing to help (when they're not too busy hosting a rave). However, the Lemurs may be the ones who need assistance when Madagascar's most dangerous creatures, the Foosa, strike.
