Narrator: Throughout his long career as filmmaker, storyteller, innovator, educator, Walt Disney never forgot his love for animals. His early cartoons made a mouse world famous, he brought stardom to a certain Donald Duck. From those first cartoons to fairy tales was but a step, and Walt's fanciful fables always had animals in them. Snow White with her friendly forest companions, Dumbo, the little elephant who thought he could fly and actually could, and Bambi, the gentle fawn of innocent pastime. But Walt Disney was never satisfied with past achievements. He was a man of many parts, a man with an inquiring mind. There came a time when his great curiosity lead him from the world of fantasy to the realm of fact. He produced a film with the title "Seal Island", and since it was a true story, he decided to call it a "True-Life Adventure". It won an Academy Award, and with that, Walt was off into a whole new domain: the world of nature.
