Based on the 1987 Ninja Turtles TV series. The Turtles, along with April O'Neil, are on their way to the Serengeti in Africa to cover a story of all the animals in the jungle. By the time they get there, the find out that all the animals have been poached. The Turtles try to solve the case of the poached animals until the Serengeti Police catch them red-handed thinking they're the poachers who poached the animals. The real poachers, perhaps, are none other than Shredder and his 2 mutant flunkies. They poached the animals in the Serengeti in order to create an army of mutant Serengeti animals to deal with the Turtles. When the Turtles are behind bars, it's up to April to get some photographic evidence of Shredder and his gruesome twosome with her camera, get the pictures developed, and clear the Turtles' names. And after that, they must get the Serengeti animals back from Shredder and kick his keister! From the creators of Legend of the Three Caballeros (2018). Voices by Ben Stiller, Tom Kenny, Steve Carell, David DeLuise, Hugh Laurie, Grey DeLisle, Jennifer Hale, Kevin Michael Richardson, Aasif Mandvi, Phil LaMarr, Johnny Depp, Wally Wingert, Eric Bauza, and Bruce Lanoil.
