In recent years, the anteater has emerged in children's books, television shows, and other forms of entertainment. One such anteater is Francis the Anteater. An anteater is also the mascot of the University of California, Irvine, named Peter the Anteater. A talking giant anteater (sometimes shown with a giant, fanged maw) is also featured prominently in the television series Kingdom Hospital as the alter ego of a main character (Anubis). An anteater named Sniffles is one of the main characters of the internet series Happy Tree Friends.
