A spaceship lands on a desert Island and its inhabitants decide to explore the environment. The ship’s inhabitants happen to be strange looking robots that look like cardboard boxes with toasters attached for legs.

One of the passengers of the ship explores the land further than the others and comes across a monkey. It decides to take a picture of the monkey, and then displays the picture on a large digital projection, which is shown to the monkey.

Said monkey then touches the projection and fries its finger by doing so. Enraged by the electrocution, the monkey smacks and bashes the passenger away, giving chase to beat the hell out of it further.

The passenger speeds away, alerting the others to the incoming threat of the raging monkey. The others pack up and leave without the remaining passenger, only to drop a ladder for the passenger to grab on to in order to escape the chasing monkey.

Burning Safari is another short short at only one minute and forty eight seconds long, but offers a thrilling ride which resembles a cross between Japanese tourtists and an episiode of Tom and Jerry.

The animation is pretty good throughout, if a little limited, but the engagment comes from the simple plot of the short, with an entertaining monkey and a frightened robot. Credit to the animators and the storyboarders for coming up with a simple plot device offering short thrills.

Verdict: Another entertaining short, simple but entertaining
