Main article: List of Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger characters

Yamato Kazakiri, a zoologist, uncovers Zyuland, a world inhabited by the anthropomorphic animal race known as the Zyumans (ジューマン Jūman). However, it coincides with the arrival of the Deathgaliens (デスガリアン Desugarian) from outer space who have chosen the Earth to be the site of their 100th Blood Game (ブラッドゲーム Buraddo Gēmu) competition. Four of the Zyumans–the shark woman Sela, the lion man Leo, the elephant man Tusk, and the tiger woman Amu–try to defend Zyuland from the Deathgaliens but their fight takes them to the Earth, with Yamato in tow, and it is revealed he possesses an artifact known as the Champion's Proof, the fifth of a set also possessed by his Zyuman companions. The Champion's Proofs transform into devices that allow the five of them to transform into the Zyuohgers and fight the Deathgalien general attacking the Earth. After the fight, the Zyumans realize that they are now trapped in the human world, as there needs to be six Champion's Proofs for them to return to Zyuland. Yamato helps the four Zyumans live in the human world while they search for the sixth Champion's Proof, all while they continue to battle the Deathgaliens who have added the Zyuohgers to their Blood Game festivities.[1][2]
