Wolfoo is a Vietnamese YouTube children’s animated web series produced by SCONNECT.[1] The show follows Wolfoo, an anthropomorphic male wolf living on a hill in a small American village with his parents and sisters, Lucy and Jenny. Pando and Kat are Wolfoo's best friends. The show itself is notorious for its controversy surrounding to its striking similarities to Peppa Pig.

The first official episode of Wolfoo first came out on 23 August 2018 and was called "Hide and Seek". There are currently many channels under the Wolfoo brand. Among these are "Wolfoo Family - Official Channel", "Wolfoo Family", "Wolfoo's Stories" and "Wolfoo Channel And Wolfoo - Sing Along Songs".

A series of movies named "Wolfoo the Adventurer" have been released on its official channel, the first part of the first movie was uploaded on 7 March 2021.

The series is aimed at two to five year olds, but also has gross-out humor throughout its run. In spite of its controversy, where it was extremely similar to the British animated series, Peppa Pig, was acknowledged by its creators and had been sued.[2] In spite of the lawsuit, the series remained intact on YouTube and is currently ongoing.
