A lion on the savanah suffers terribly from tiny flies. When a stork doctor solves the problem, the mighty lion is left with no mane and all the other animals laugh at him.

Inspired by true events, When the Storks Came Home tells of how the magnificent white stork was brought back from extinction in the UK after over 600 years.

Stork friends Malena and Klepetan look forward to the next migration from Croatia to South Africa, but when Malena is injured and can not join the flock, their time apart brings many challenges and big feelings, pushing them to stay connected and hope for a spring reunion.
