## Plot

When the jungle is under attack by hunters, A boy named Murphy, the dinosaurs and other animals must unite to help the rangers, battle the hunters and save the jungle!

The story begins when Murphy, a lost boy who's looking for his parents in the deep jungles of Mesozoic Land, is found by Dongero, a friendly Deinonychus who introduces him to a family of Velociraptors who recently has had kids. Mommy Raptor and her mate, Raptora help Murphy, who becomes well acquainted with jungle life and plays with his raptor pals. Dongera is pleased with how happy Murphy is now, but also worries that Murph must eventually return to his own kind, like his parents.

One night, the Velociraptors pack parents meet at Council Rock, having learned that Shukhan, a fish-eating Bengal tiger-striped Spinosaurus, has returned to the pack's part of the jungle. Pack leader Aku Raptor decides that Murphy must leave the jungle for his own safety. Dongera volunteers to escort him to a "Man-Village". They leave that very night, but Murphy is determined to stay in the jungle. He and Dongera rest under a tree for the night, where a Madtsoia named Hal drops in to try help Murphy, but Dongera intervenes and later on, he helps Hal by tossing a small Didelphodon as a peace offering.

The next morning, Murphy tries to join the Triceratops patrol, led by Colonel Trike and his wife. Dongera finds Murphy, but after a fight, decides to leave Murphy on his own. Murphy soon meets up with the laid-back, fun-loving Stegosaurus bear Stego, who promises to raise Mowgli himself and never take him to the Man-Village.

Shortly afterward, a group of Beelzebufo kidnap Murphy and take him to their leader, King Flyer the Dimorphodon. King Flyer offers to help Murphy stay in the jungle if he will tell Flyer how to make fire, like other humans. However, since he was raised by humans, Mowgli does not know how to make fire yet. Dongero and Stego arrive to rescue Murphy and in the ensuing chaos, King Flyer's palace is demolished to rubble. Luckily, King Flyer gets tips from a friendly T-rex named Tyrannus who has met friendly humans who knows how to make fire.

Dongero speaks to Stego that night and convinces him that the jungle will never be safe for Murphy with Shukhan around. In the morning, Stego reluctantly explains to Murphy that the Man-Village is best for him, but Murphy accuses him of breaking his promise and runs away. As Stego sets off in search of Murphy, Dongero rallies the help of Trike and his patrol. However, Shukhan himself, who was eavesdropping on Stego and Trike's conversation, is now determined to hunt and find Murphy himself.

Meanwhile, Murphy encounters Hal once again, who again attempts to eat him after hypnotizing him to sleep, but he wakes up and escapes thanks to the unwitting intervention of the suspicious Shukhan, who has a chat with him. As a storm gathers, a depressed Murphy encounters a group of friendly pterosaurs and a microraptor who accept Murphy as a fellow outcast.

Shukhan appears shortly after, scaring off the pterosaurs and confronting Murphy. Stego and his pals rush to the rescue and tries to keep ShuKhan away from Murphy, but is nearly killed. When lightning strikes a nearby tree and sets it ablaze, the pterosaurs and microraptor swoop in to distract Shukhan, but then, a group of mean hunters come in. Later on, Shukhan decides to call Hal forth and all the other dinosaur jungle inhabitants. As Stego recovers, he joins in and the rangers arrest the hunters after various dinosaurs and other animals [e.g. Tyrannus, Hal, etc] beat them up.

After the storm, Stego and Dongero and Shukhan and the pterosaurs take Murphy to the edge of the Man-Village, but Murphy is still hesitant to go there. However, his mind abruptly changes when he is smitten by a girl named Sheena who says "something was in my eye!"

Sheena explains that she was coming down by the riverside to fetch water. After noticing Murphy, she "accidentally" drops her water pot. Murphy retrieves it for her and finds his parents as he also follows her into the Man-Village. After Murphy shrugs to Shukhan, the pterosaurs, Hal, and Dongero, to show that he has made up his mind and tells his pals that he'll visit them again as he's chosen to go to the Man-Village, Stego, Dongero, Shukhan, Hal, the pterosaurs, and Tyrannus, among others [e.g. Honker Parasaurolophus] decide to head home, content that Murphy is safe and happy with his own kind as King Flyer, the Velociraptor pack, Trike and the Triceratops patrol join in.
