The Lorax

The Lorax is the mystical Guardian of the Truffula Forest who speaks for the trees in the Illumination animated movie The Lorax. He is voiced by Danny DeVito.

He tries to tell the Once-ler to stop chopping down the trees because it's ruining the animal's home. When the last tree is chopped down, he sends the animals away to find another place to live, and goes up into the sky and disappeared without a trace, only leaving on a pile of rock, a word : Unless, which the Once-ler figured out after all of those years that this word that the Lorax has left was more likely meant to Ted. Declared that : "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not." he give Ted the last truffula seed, convincing him to make the citizens of Thneedville to care once more for nature, saying that what the seed can become because of him. After Ted convinced the citizens (as though a part of the Lorax was within him, as it’s living proof that the Lorax is also the literary incarnation of both nature and reason that is within each person) to care again for nature and fought against their greedy mayor, Aloysius O'Hare, and as time passes the truffula trees and all plants growing back, he comes back with the animals and said he's proud of the Once-ler for doing something good, and comments on his mustache.

They begin a friendship after he saves the Once-ler from falling down a waterfall when he puts his bed in the river. Soon when the Once-ler becomes greedy and selfish when his Thneed is selling like crazy after his family convinces him to go back to chopping the trees down, the Lorax tries to get him to stop again and remind him of the person he used to be and his promise.

When the trees are growing back, he returns and tells the Once-ler he did good and their friendship is restored.
