Endangered Species is a Canadian All-CGI Cartoon by Nerd Corps Entertainment, previously known for having created other CGI Canadian cartoons like Storm Hawks, League of Super Evil, and Slugterra.
The cartoon follows the lives of three animal roommates who live in a stump. There's Pickle, the wild, playful rabbit who's always up for an adventure (voice of Tabitha St. Germain). There's Gull, the simple-minded but friendly seagull (voice of Lee Tockar). And finally, there's Merl, the high-strung chipmunk who acts as the Straight Man of the trio (voice of Samuel Vincent).
The cartoon was released on Teletoon on March 3rd, 2015. It ran for only a single season of 26 episodes and came to an end rather swiftly on June 2 of the same year. It also aired on CBBC in the United Kingdom.
Endangered Species contains examples of:

- "Fantastic Voyage" Plot: "Innards Space" involves Pickle shrinking down and piloting a submarine into Gull's body to retrieve the TV remote he swallowed.

- The Smurfette Principle: Merl and Gull are boys, while Pickle is a girl.

- Time-Travel Episode: "10 Minutes To Cookies" involves Gull and Pickle traveling through time, and almost destroying the nut that grew into the stump.

- Trash of the Titans: "Happy Garbage Day" involves Pickle filling the stump with trash, much to Merl's horror.
