An animated SpinOffBabies series to the entire [[Franchise/{{Madagascar}} franchise]], ''Madagascar: A Little Wild'' is the third animated SpinOff series based on the ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}'' films (following ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar''; centered on the Penguins, and ''WesternAnimation/AllHailKingJulien''; centered on the lemurs), this time focusing on the franchise's main quartet -- Alex, Marty, Gloria & Melman -- in their child years.

* TheCameo: [[spoiler:In the SeriesFinale, the Penguins make an appearance on TV, as their younger selves shown in ''WesternAnimation/PenguinsOfMadagascar''.]]

The series is produced by Creator/DreamWorksAnimation and Creator/MainframeStudios. It was distributed simultaneously on both Creator/{{Hulu}} and Creator/{{Peacock}}, on September 7th, 2020.

* SeldomSeenSpecies: "Whatever Floats Your Float" has Odee Elliot, an okapi. It's also a plot-point as the characters must figure out what they are.
* SpinoffBabies: The show focuses on the Zoo Crew as children.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: "Whatever Floats Your Float" is about the animals putting on an "animal pride parade," but when Odee arrives nobody can figure out which species they are. They try to fit them as either a giraffe or a zebra, but they reveal they're an okapi, and explains, "It doesn’t matter what we are as long as we’re proud of who we are." It's clearly a metaphor for trying to fit nonbinary people into a gender binary, compounded by the fact Odee does actually use they/them pronouns.
