The story follows Mabel (Curda), an animal-loving college student who transfers her mind into a robotic beaver to communicate with animals and save their habitat from destruction, inadvertently sparking an uprising among them.

Chong began developing the project after returning to Pixar in December 2020, and it was officially announced in August 2024. Development lasted six years. Mark Mothersbaugh composed the score, while SZA wrote and performed the end-credits song "Save the Day".
