Wumpa's World

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wumpa's World was a television series for children which first aired on many networks including Treehouse TV, The Knowledge Channel and APTN with approximately 35 15-minute episodes from August 2001 to May 2002. The pilot episode aired in late 2000. Today, the show's episodes are only seen in re-runs late during the night and earlier during the day. The series featured its main character, Wumpa the walrus, who tells real-live stories which take place in a medium version of the Arctic Circle. At the end of each show, Wumpa sings his very own "goodbye song" by playing a bass guitar that looks like a didgeredoo. Most of the show's episodes ends with Wumpa's goodbye song's most famous line, which is called "Well, bye-bye, and don't forget, always keep your tusks shiny and your scruby clean".

They live in a small hole in the bottom of the ground with a dark-looking cave inside. And finally, there is a polar bear named Tiguak, who lives in an igloo, has a bed and a toy bear he calls "Mr. Snoozers", and mostly eats fish for his lunch and dinner.
