Amanda and visiting vet, Sophie pull out all the stops to give a vervet monkey with a broken leg a chance at returning to the wild; Alma receives an orphaned, cat-like genet; an antisocial baboon gets a chance at joining a troop.
Amanda and Mandy try every trick in the book to help a snared hyena, a lion threatens a village, and the team's plan to release a troop of 13 monkeys is thwarted by last-minute surgery and some crafty escape artists.
