* SeldomSeenSpecies:
** The Himalayan jumping spider that Percy is filming for his Website/YouTube documentary is, in fact, a real species of spider from Southeast Asia.
** Even though it's not stated directly in the film, the bear that Migo and Percy encounter is a Himalayan black bear, one of the few subspecies of black bears native to Asia.
** The Himalayan Golden Eagle is a real species of eagle found in the Himalayan Mountains. It appears in the movie three times when Migo goes below the mountain and finds land down below for the very first time. It was first seen soaring in the sunset forest sky, then it was seen trying to attack a Himalayan Mountain Goat then it was later seen perched on a boulder before almost getting hit by Migo in the flying cargo plane.

* RealityEnsues: After spending some time in the yeti village in one day, Percy starts suffering from high altitude sickness due to lack of oxygen on such a high peak.

* WhiteAndGrayMorality: The closest thing this movie has to a villain is the Stonekeeper, and even then, his actions are born from a ([[WellIntentionedExtremist however misguided]])desire to protect his village.

* WhatYouAreInTheDark: In the climax, [[spoiler:Percy tells Migo “I hope you understand why I have to do this.” and tranquilizes the yeti. At first, it appears he's going to capture Migo...and he very well could've, but that's not in his intention. Instead, he uses the opportunity to keep Migo out of harm while he distracts the chase party]].

** Even before that, Percy had a chance to run away and leave Migo stuck in the bear trap, and no one would be the wiser. But after having a short battle with his own conscience, he decides the more honorable path would be to repay Migo for saving him from the bear.

* AnimalTalk: The yetis' language sounds like low growling to humans, while human speak sounds like high-pitched gibberish to yetis. At one point, Migo is holding a conversation with a female Himalayan black bear, which to Percy sounds like the two roaring at each other. Oddly for this trope bears don't talk.

* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Percy goes back for Migo when the latter is helplessly stuck in a BearTrap, because the yeti in question protected Percy from a bear. He even wraps up Migo's wounded big toe with duct tape.

* MistakenForAnImposter: Percy wants his producer/co-worker Brenda to dress in a yeti costume so he could film her chasing and attacking him as a way to boost his show's ratings. When Brenda soon abandons him with the costume, Percy goes after her... only to accidentally run into Migo. Thinking Migo is Brenda in the yeti costume at first, he plays along, until he sees the real Brenda driving away on a snow mobile and soon mistakenly realizes he's facing a real breathing yeti.

** The biggest shout out in Smallfoot is to Franchise/LooneyTunes. “You're able to do some Road Runner-type of feel,” said Reisig. “There's a sequence where Migo's falling down the mountain and rolling in a snowball and landing on a bridge and falling into cliffs and creating character-shaped holes. There's so many homages to Looney Tunes, down to the shape of their eyes. It's a very unusual to have characters with long oval eyes. That's very WesternAnimation/BugsBunny, and the whole Warner Brothers character library.”
