- Kev the Crocodile
Kev is a lively and confident crocodile. He acts like a cool surfer dude and is always full of energy. Kev dreams of being a top surfer, but he doesn't always quite catch the perfect wave.
- Dan the Pan
Panda Dan is very calm, slow, and gentle. He can be shy when there are many others around. Dan is happy just being by himself. When he speaks, his words often sound like wise sayings from a fortune cookie. Dan's favorite snack is bamboo.
