Jungle Rescue is a jungle-themed subtheme of Friends released in 2014. It involves the group of five friends and Matthew rescuing defenseless baby animals.
Description
Being a sub-theme of Friends, Jungle Rescue uses the mini-doll figure, which are rescuing baby cartoon-esc shaped animals. The jungle is not based of any real life jungle as lions can not be found in the jungle but they are found here. The theme also puts animals found in different jungles such as tigers and pandas. Even though books and other media depict the parent animals reviving they're rescued child, no adult animals are not present in the sets, besides Romeo and Juliet. Most of the animals are reused from the Friends Animals line with a few re colourings.
The colour schemes of the sets feature a wide range of colours the most prominent between the sets are: Dark green, Bright yellowish green, Reddish brown, Dark orange, Medium Lavender and Bright Purple.
Background
Andrea, Emma, Matthew, Mia, Olivia, and Stephanie are taking a summer trip to the jungle. They stay at the Rescue Base where they locate animals in danger. The adults Sophie and Henry were called to an emergency in a neighbouring reserve, so are not present in the sets.
History
In an attempt to appeal to more adventurous girls, who thought Friends was too boring or basic, Jungle Rescue was created. The sets are the only ones aimed towards girls, to feature danger at all.
