Uprights Uprights are what the animals call in " The Song of the Cloud Forest " . The term derives from the fact that these creatures walk upright . Only two " Uprights " are actually seen in the special - a pair of environmentalists named Jack and Louise who attempt to capture Milton the Golden Toad . The " Uprights , " in an attempt to save the endangered golden toad , hoped to lure a male to take back to their lab to breed and study . However after hearing the song of the cloud forest , they find that the best thing to do is let nature do its job . The Upright ' s faces are purposely very hard to see . But occasionally , the lighting allows the viewer to get a clear view of their faces . Abstract puppet representations of Uprights are shown during the song " Munching Forest . " These imaginary visions show viewers the animals ' perception of human beings . The large headed beings are seen eating the forest and the animals - as , according to Ralph Robin , Uprights only want to literally consume the forest and its inhabitants . Similar to the Fraggles ' perceptions of Silly Creatures on " Fraggle Rock " , the forest creatures are very misguided in their interpretation of human actions , customs and motives .
