On a lovely spring day, Yakari happens upon Quiet Rock, the tribe's elder, busy admiring a Pronghorn - an American antelope. The young Sioux then spends a few days with the Pronghorn's family, learning about their everyday life. With the help of several of his animal friends, he even helps them through several incidents - from coyote attacks to prairie fires - and learns a valuable lesson about humility while he's at it.
