Fortunately the sugar rush created in those that eat the candyfloss sends them into a frenzy of productive activity. They plant several fields of new trees that successfully negates the air shortage.

Unfortunately, the trees feel Overworked, creating all that air to satisfy humanity's increasing hunger for candyfloss, but the Tree Unions don't agree with their complaint, leading to tensions in the Tree Socialist Party

Tusky

Fortunately, this tension creates a host of opportunities for the Squirrel Socialist Party, the Woodpecker Nationalist Syndicate and the Leafcutter Ant Workers Consortium. Their prosperity is a boon to the whole forest.

Fortunately the new endangered species act has decreed that any endangered species now rules the territory. The woodpeckers are kings now.

Unfortunately, they return and fall yet deeper to their nationalist-expansionist ways and become a brutally oppressive governing minority. Squirrels suffer particularly badly under their rule.

Caradìlis

Fortunately, the squirrels are really good at dealing with situations that are nuts (I am not ashamed of this pun and I will not take it back)... They revolt using a new technique called the angry squirrel catapult.

Tusky

Fortunately the birds have no money so the lawyers are forced to take a settlement of a few sacks of pine cones, acorns and assorted leaves and droppings

Unfortunately, the birds are unwilling to settle and start a full on bird on squirrel war.

Fortunately, the Highly Trained Titmouse is brought in as a negotiator, and does remarkably well in encouraging them to reach a peace treaty.
