Open Season 3

Boog intends to go on an annual trip with his male friends to spend quality time together. However, many of his friends have started families, leading to disappointments as they opt for family commitments instead. Frustrated, Boog decides to go on his own adventure, seeking new experiences.

Boog's solo journey takes an unexpected turn when he ends up at a Russian traveling circus. Curious about this new environment, he begins exploring the circus acts and the lively atmosphere. This marks the beginning of his unusual adventure outside the forest.

Inside the circus, Boog encounters Doug, a lazy and scruffy grizzly bear who is tired of performing. Doug dreams of recognition as the king of the forest and wants to escape his current life in the circus. Their meeting sparks Boog's curiosity about circus life and its possibilities.

Doug persuades Boog to swap his forest life for a role in the circus, promising recognition and excitement. Boog, eager for change, agrees to the plan. However, it's soon revealed that Doug's intentions were selfish, as he just wanted to escape hiscircus life.

While in the circus, Boog meets Ursa, a talented female grizzly from Russia who can walk on a tightrope, juggle, and dance. As they spend more time together, their bond deepens, and they develop a harmonious connection, blending their talents and personalities.

Boog's friends, along with some pets, learn about his disappearance and team up to rescue him from the circus. They set out on a mission to bring Boog back to the forest, highlighting their loyalty and concern for their friend in a tense and heartfelt effort.

Boog's friends arrive at the circus, hoping to persuade him to return to their forest home. Boog resists leaving Ursa behind, emphasizing his feelings for her and the conflict between his old life and newfound love.

Doug admits he tricked Boog and expresses remorse for his actions. He takes on the circus acts to entertain the audience and seeks to make amends. This act of redemption allows Boog to see Doug's genuine desire to change.

Boog chooses not to return to the forest, instead convincing Ursa to join him and his friend Elliot in the woods. He realizes that love and friendship matter more than his previous life in the circus, leading to a new life in the forest with his loved ones.

Ursa begins to enjoy her life in the forest alongside Boog and Elliot. She adapts quickly, bringing her circus talents into the forest environment, symbolizing her integration into Boog's world and their shared future.

Elliot's antler falls off for the third time, leading to a humorous moment and highlighting his clumsy, anxious personality. This small incident adds comic relief and reflects the ongoing friendship between the characters.
