The tale of the film, as narrated by the rooster Alan-a-Dale, begins after the greedy and immature lion Prince John took advantage of the absence of his brother King Richard to usurp the crown from him, with assistance from his advisor, Sir Hiss the snake. From then on, the land is plagued with outrageously high taxes, notably through the actions of the Sheriff of Nottingham, a heartless wolf who keeps the city under the Prince's thumb and has no qualms stripping the poor people of each and every last bit of their savings. Thankfully, there is hope for the people. Hiding within Sherwood Forest, a pair of robbers composed of a fox known as Robin Hood and his trusty bear companion Little John have made it their duty to steal from the rich to give to the poor. Through a variety of schemes and disguises, they take from the unworthy ruler and his lackeys to give back to the struggling citizens, such as Friar Tuck, the badger in charge of the local church who supports the outlaws' actions and himself tries to help his fellow residents best as he can. Meanwhile, living alone with her lady-in-waiting, a hen named Lady Kluck, is a beautiful and benevolent vixen known as Maid Marian, who happens to be King Richard's niece. Years ago, she and Robin Hood used to be sweethearts; and today, neither has forgotten about the other, as they are longing to be once more reunited. However, Prince John is more than determined to finally catch the thief who humiliated him so many times...
