Melman, a hypochondriac, is distressed that the reserve has no doctors, so the other giraffes appoint him their witch doctor. Marty fits in with a herd of other zebras who look and sound just like him. Alex is reunited with his parents and impresses them with tales of his status as "the king of New York". The animals find themselves at a watering hole on a nature reserve, and are excited to meet others of their species. The plane runs out of fuel and crash lands in continental Africa. Years later, following their adventure in Madagascar, the zoo animals-Alex, Marty, Melman, Gloria, the penguins, and the chimpanzees-prepare to return to New York aboard a battered airplane piloted by the penguins, accompanied by King Julien, Maurice, and Mort. The crate falls into the ocean and drifts to New York City, where he is renamed Alex, grows up at the Central Park Zoo, and meets his lifelong best friends: Marty, Melman, and Gloria. Zuba gives chase and breaks the safety harness off of the crate containing Alakay, but is shot in the ear and incapacitated. A rival lion Makunga challenges Zuba for the title of alpha lion, but during their fight, Alakay is captured by poachers and put in a crate. In Africa, the alpha lion Zuba tries to teach his young son Alakay how to fight, but Alakay is more interested in dancing. A sequel, Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted, was released in June 2012. It was dedicated to Bernie Mac, who died before the film's release.

In the film, the main characters-a party of animals from the Central Park Zoo whose adventures have taken them to Madagascar-find themselves in Africa, where they meet others of their species and where Alex the lion reunites with his parents.
