Sports Cartoons is an American animated series, produced by Derek Lamb and Janet Perlman's Lamb-Perlman Productions in 1985.
The series featured various sports being played by anthropomorphic animals, including cats, dogs, pigs, and hippopotami.
Some of these sports included ice hockey, shot put, soccer, American football, and table tennis.
Visually speaking, Sports Cartoons bear resemblance to other series animated in the National Film Board of Canada style.
The hippo remains peaceful and collected, unless a smaller helpless creature (such as a butterfly or a flower) is threatened, in which case he becomes highly protective.
