Endangered Species is a Canadian computer-animated children's television series created by Asaph Fipke, produced by Nerd Corps Entertainment and distributed internationally by DHX Media for Teletoon[1] that premiered on the channel on March 3, 2015, and aimed for kids ages 6–11.

Synopsis

Pickle the bunny, Merl the squirrel, and Gull the seagull, live together in a stump in the middle of a park. The trio make a deal with numerous adventures and dangers.

Characters

Main

  • Pickle (voiced by Tabitha St. Germain) is a female yellow bunny who loves to go on wild adventures.
  • Merl (voiced by Sam Vincent) is an male American red squirrel. He speaks with a Spanish accent and he is cautious about it. His favorite doll is Nutty Buddy.
  • Gull (voiced by Lee Tockar) is a male stump-winged, white seagull. Gull is slow and dim-witted, but loveable and was going through that one of us.

Recurring

  • Schlitzy (voiced by Lee Tockar):is an evil half-eaten corncob who found it by Gull.
  • Dilly is Pickle's evil cousin.
  • The Moles were Merl's worst fear and his worst enemy ever.
  • Nutty Buddy is Merl's doll.

Production

The original idea for the series was conceived in 2010 and was centered more heavily around themes of environmentalism than the finished product. Among some other differences was that the character Merl was not present in the original draft, and the names and appearances of the other two main characters were different from the final version.[2]

Broadcast

In the UK, it airs on CBBC, where it premiered on July 13, 2015.[3]
