 is the wild, chaotic drummer of The Electric Mayhem, the house band for the Muppets. Animal's wild nature allows for him to be a powerful drummer for the band, but also leads him to violent outbursts where he tends to run amuck destroying things, including his own drums, tending to need someone to bring him under control. He tends to be cared for by fellow Electric Mayhem bassist Floyd Pepper, who usually is one of the few that can keep Animal's worst impulses from causing greater problems like a master keeping a dog under control.

Like the other members of The Electric Mayhem, Animal first appeared in the initial pilot for The Muppet Show: 1975's The Muppet Show: Sex and Violence.
