| Bilby | comment |
Bilby is a computer-animated short film by DreamWorks Animation, one of the first two in the studio's short films program (the other is Bird Karma). It was originally planned to be a feature-length musical film, titled Larrikins and directed by Tim Minchin. However, when the film got cancelled, a group of animators who worked on the character models for the film used them to create this short instead. It can be found on Blu-ray and DVD copies of How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World.The short tells the story of the eponymous bilby, who finds an albatross chick in the middle of the Australian Outback and makes a brave effort to return it to its home by the ocean. | |

Lovable Coward: The bilby is introduced as someone constantly running and hiding from predators. Taking care of the albatross chick brings out his brave side, though. | |

Papa Wolf: The bilby braves through all sorts of hostile environments to return the chick to the ocean. And when the eagle snatches the chick, he gets dangerous and beats up the bird of prey. | |

Shoot the Shaggy Dog: Fortunately subverted. It looks like the bilby's journey was All for Nothing when the albatross chick is snatched by an eagle - but the bilby gets dangerous and rescues the chick from the predator. | |

Everything Trying to Kill You: The Outback is full of dangerous predators, from monitor lizards to scorpions to dingoes and crocodiles. Even the non-predatory wildlife is dangerous, such as the echidnas covered in prickly spines and the stampeding kangaroos. Not to mention the non-living threats like bushfires, boulders and quicksand. | |
