It could even be a youtube video or movie that you don’t think anyone reading this has heard of besides you.

    Found it! New Friends 1981

    https://m.imdb.com/title/tt3352786/

    After a few attempts, the successful Google string was:

    “howard” “duck” “frog” -comic “new york”

    Edit: By few, I mean my whole morning. Fun puzzle 😉

    Edit 2: My work here is done. https://youtu.be/06kfHOvZdbs

    Edit 3: Donate the money to charity, or use it to buy gifts for kids for the holidays!

      Furthermore, I believe this cartoon is an adaptation of a Russian story/cartoon from 1948 called Little Grey Neck. It doesn’t take place in a city, but the premise is very similar, where a young duck misses its migration and has to befriend the other winter animals to survive.

      That clip was really short and sweet.
      Really enjoyed the hand painted water color animation.
      Would also a perfect cross post for Deep into YouTube.
