and Barnum & Bailey Circus, as well as bans on wild animals in traveling shows in several countries and American states. The public outcry about this issue has led to the closure of Ringling Bros. If that weren't enough, the nature of these traveling shows means the animals can't follow any of their natural instincts to exercise or interact with other members of their species. Madagascar also features the voice talents of Cedric the Entertainer, Andy Richter, and Sacha Baron Cohen (aka Ali G).The issue comes down to the fact that unlike the animals in "Madagascar 3," wild animals who perform in circuses are forced to do so, often with cruel training techniques that include the use of bullhooks, sticks, and whips. Soon the critters find themselves living on the coast of Madagascar, where they quickly discover they aren't quite suited for living in the wild. Alex, Gloria, and Melman set out to find Marty before he gets into trouble, but they're a bit too late, and soon the zookeepers have decided that the animals are restless and need to be returned to the wild. While Alex and his pals Marty the Zebra (voice of Chris Rock), Gloria the Hippo (voice of Jada Pinkett Smith), and Melman the Giraffe (voice of David Schwimmer) are happy with their lot in life, they occasionally have a certain curiosity about the outside world, and when the zoo's penguins decide to make a break for it, Marty follows them into the city. Alex (voice of Ben Stiller) is a lion who enjoys a charmed life as one of the leading attractions at a zoo in New York City's Central Park. A pack of not-so-wild animals experience some serious culture shock when they move from the Big Apple to the Mighty Jungle in this computer-animated comedy.
