    Globehunters: An Around the World in 80 Days Adventure is a 2002[3] animated television film which originally aired on Nickelodeon on December 15, 2002, and eventually aired on VHS and DVD by MGM Home Entertainment as a DIC Movie Toon. Loosely based on Around the World in Eighty DaysbyJules Verne, the plot follows a trio of genetic animals, a gorilla named Eddie, a cheetah named Sasha, and a parrot named Trevor, who decide to escape a laboratory and travel the world in hopes of finding a place known as Himalaya USA. Meanwhile, a hunter is tasked with catching the animals within a period of eighty days – before the tracking devices attached to the latter self-destruct.

    The film was initially distributed by DIC Entertainment and is nowadays a property of WildBrain, which holds the rights to the DIC Movie Toons, as well as most of DIC's library, and ViacomCBS.[4]
