Maeve, a five‑year‑old homeless girl, can understand animal speech. She and her loyal golden retriever Rufus are taken in by a failing zoo run by siblings Talia and Declan. Using her special gift, Maeve uncovers the truth behind animal‑caused incidents one after another. She helps misunderstood “problem animals” including a lazy lion, a phone‑obsessed gorilla, a pig eager to fly and a rhino raised among dogs show their real personalities, turning them into huge draws for visitors. Faced with rivals’ schemes and crises, the little girl and her furry companions work together to protect the zoo. Gradually, the once‑deserted park thrives, and Maeve finally gains a real home of her own.
