Universal Animation Studios

Universal Animation Studios is the studio's in-house animation unit, originally established in 1991 and known for much of its history under an earlier name. It specializes in animated features and series made primarily for home entertainment and television rather than wide theatrical release.

The unit is best known for extending several classic family properties, producing a long line of sequels to a gentle prehistoric adventure about young dinosaurs, follow-ups to a musical tale of an immigrant mouse, and screen versions of a curious little monkey's escapades. Its work keeps Universal's evergreen family brands alive across generations of young viewers.
