Pilot Episode: Howard Moon and Vince Noir are keepers at the Zoo-niverse but are not happy with their lot – particularly when new employee Dixon Bainbridge is immediately put on a pedestal by owner Bob Fossil due to his adventures and impressive moustache. Keen to show he is more than a match for Bainbridge, Howard takes Vince on a dangerous mission to be the first to recover a mysterious jewel deep in the frozen tundra of the Artic.

Bob Fossil sets up a highly illegal and shady kangaroo boxing match between the Killeroo and Howard. Howard thinks that by winning the fight he will impress the Head of Reptiles, Mrs Gideon. Vince enlists his uncle, a bare-knuckle fighter with a very strange accent, to help with Howard's training.
