The Wild Fluffalump

One morning - at the foot of a tree on the African plain - a strange creature is found. Its fluffy and puffy. What can it be? The meerkats declare this it is a wild Fluffalump. Eagle says there is no such thing, Buffalo thinks it must be a bird, Hyena says it squeaked and wriggled when he gave it a poke and Giraffe finds it has toes. Poor Fluffalump wants food and drink, will anyone help him? What will he turn out to be?
