The Croods (family)

The Croods are the stars and titular family of The Croods and The Croods: A New Age.

The Croods are the last known family of cavemen due to all their neighbors getting killed by predators, environmental hazards or illnesses. As such, their leader, Grug Crood, is very protective of his family, cautioning them to believe:
 * To never not be afraid
 * That new things and curiosity are bad
 * To never leave the Cave without Grug's permission

Eventually, the world would force this family to change their ways in order to survive. The Croods would have to open up to the outside world and what it has to offer to them.
