Noah is happy that his ark was finished in time for the great flood. It offers protection to all animals on earth. But it doesn't take long for the animals to become dissatisfied: the giraffe doesn't have enough space, the monkeys complain about the leaky roof. Fortunately, the white dove appears shortly afterwards and brings long-awaited news: land is in sight!

The ark is a symbol for me. Today we have to think of nature just as Noah thinks of animals.
