The green Verdies are the tiny, but brave guardians of the lakeside. The young Verdies only become guardians when their hair turns brown. Until then, however, life is boring. The youngsters with green hair are not allowed to fly on warblers, not allowed to row alone, and they're not allowed to ride wild frogs at the rodeo. Willy Whistle's big dream is to become a guardian, but his curiosity always gets him into trouble. However, the whole lake becomes at risk when the enemies of the lakeside, the Grimps and the swans, enter into alliance. The guardians are helpless, but Willy comes up with a daring plan in order to save his home and his trapped friend, Jeremiah Jump. Luckily he is not alone, because Grandpa, the water snakes and the frogs also come to his aid.
在《麋鹿王》的世界中，故事发生在人类、怪兽、麋鹿三大种族中。而相比憨态可掬的贪吃熊猫阿宝，影片主角麋鹿公主呦呦走的是温柔天真路线，因为吃下不知名的仙草而变成少女，并因此拥有“迷踪腿”绝招，在寻找麋鹿王的过程中，和人类王子开始了一段浪漫的爱情。 影片原名《麋王宝图》，据出品方中视互动负责人杨先生介绍，在熊猫特效班底的辅助下，影片已秘密制作了三年，预计将在今年内上映，此番改名《麋鹿王》，是参考了熊猫制片人和海外片方的建议，也更加符合影片集特效、动作、冒险、喜剧于一体的大片定位。
