What happens

Skippy: Adventures in Bushtown (also known as Skippy: Adventures in Bushland) is an Australian animated children's series created by Yoram Gross, set in a fictionalised Australian town. It is based on the character Skippy from the 1968 live-action series Skippy the Bush Kangaroo. It differs from the other Skippy series as it is animated and features anthropomorphic characters. Skippy, for example, is an anthropomorphic, male kangaroo who wears a baseball cap and is depicted as a Park Ranger of the fictional town of Bushtown. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
