''Mother for a Little Mammoth'' is a 1981 Soviet animated short directed by Oleg Churkin.
Long ago, a baby mammoth got frozen in the Arctic ice. Then one day, in modern times, the ice melts, and the mammoth, thinking he has simply had a nap, starts looking for his mother, only for an old wise walrus to tell him that animals like him had, indeed, once lived in the region but disappeared ages earlier. The little mammoth is heartbroken, and the walrus recalls that he has heard of similar-looking animals living far away in the south. He offers the mammoth to go there on an ice floe and look for himself.
The mammoth follows his advice and manages to travel all the way to the African coast. A friendly hippo decides he is an elephant, only in a fur coat, and brings a she-elephant to meet him. The she-elephant is at first reluctant to accept such a hairy calf as her own, but the hippo tells her it doesn’t matter. The little mammoth sees the elephant and immediately accepts her as his mother, and they happily leave together.
!! Tropes featured in the movie:
* BearyFriendly: A polar bear cub is the first one to try to help the baby mammoth, and later sees him off as the mammoth begins his voyage to Africa.
* DistaffCounterpart: The helpful animals in the polar regions and Africa are this to each other, with the former being male and the latter female — the little InnocentlyInsensitive but ultimately kindhearted one (the polar bear cub in the North, the monkey in Africa) and the old and wise one (the walrus in the polar regions, the hippo in Africa).
* HappilyAdopted: The mammoth by the she-elephant in the end.
* HonoraryUncle: Uncle Walrus and Aunt Hippo aren't anyone's biological uncles.
* HuggyHuggyHippos: Aunt Hippo brings the she-elephant to see the mammoth and reassures her when she is hesitant about adopting him.
