Among the victims of the nutty shenanigans could be a woolly mammoth (dubbed in world-weary tones by Romano) that gets swept out to ocean on an ice floe. Separated from his mate (Queen Latifah) and their teenage daughter, the paternalistic elephant is set to reunite along with his family.

The all-new menagerie of marauders includes a panther pirate (Jennifer Lopez), a multi-tasking badger and a wacky walrus (Nick Frost). Wanda Sykes could be a welcome addition to the core voice forged because the daft however resourceful granny.
