What happens

The Jungle King (also known as: Enchanted Tales: The Jungle King) is a 1994 American animated musical film produced by Golden Films and distributed by Sony Wonder. Diane Eskenazi, the founder of Golden Films, was the producer, director and storywriter for the film, as was the case for other animated films made by Golden Films. It was originally released on VHS in 1994, and was most likely released to cash in on the success of Disney's The Lion King, as it was released the same year as Disney's film. The film later saw a DVD release in 2003. This animated feature was released as part of Golden Films' Enchanted Tales collection of films. The style of the film is reminiscent of the cartoons and animated films of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
