The film's estimated budget was around $150,000. Director Mike Cheslik estimated that the mascot costumes cost around $10,000, and the crew bought all of the costumes online.
Costumes per animal featured in the film: six beavers, five dogs, two rabbits, one raccoon, one wolf, one skunk and one horse.
The musical motif that can be heard during the scenes outside the wolf cave resembles the wolf theme from
Sergej Prokofiev's "Peter and the Wolf".
