    The story is about how a group of forest animals try different ways to stop humans from building a road through the forest but eventually realize the bridge was built for them.

    The animals are initially upset about the humans building in the forest as it disrupts their habitat and separates some of them from their friends/groups.

    The animals try chewing wires, ramming trucks, and using skunk spray to stop the construction but their efforts don't work.
