The Simpsons are reimagined as animals in a National Geographic-style nature mockumentary.
Full story[]
In a documentary exploring the remnants of the animal kingdom, the beluga whale and the narwhal are introduced as the first species, drawing a comparison to Homer and Marge. As summer concludes, they separate due to being a different species, with the narwhal vowing never to forget the beluga. When his companions inquire about their time together and begin to sing, the narwhal solemnly states that he will not see the beluga again.
The documentary also focuses on the marine iguana, a species that endangers its offspring by laying eggs on some of the world's most hazardous beaches. For instance, one hatchling, resembling Milhouse, falls victim to snakes. Educators, resembling Chalmers and Skinner, gather the young iguanas to teach them survival skills. The initial task is to reach a safe area amid the surrounding rocks. One individual, reminiscent of Martin, volunteers but fails when detected after beginning to move. Subsequently, two others, resembling Nelson and Bart, attempt the same and allow other iguanas to be captured. Bart's counterpart sacrifices the rest to achieve success, securing a place on the rock alongside the educators. Ultimately, he decides that ending his own life is preferable to enduring such an existence.
