WildWooHoo - creative studio for the animal kingdom, including us

WildWooHoo turns behavioural ecology into songs, films, characters, and educational programmes that travel. Animal behaviour, sociality and evolution are the source; popular culture is the surface. Despite all we have built, we are still part of the animal kingdom.

We don't make work about the wild. We make work that comes from it. From behavioural research, animal societies, ecological change, evolutionary biology, and the parallels between human and non-human life. Hierarchy. Identity. Belonging. Coexistence. Care. Change. We notice these patterns in other animals first - and that often helps us understand ourselves more clearly.

Songs, music videos, animated series, books, classroom moments, public performances. We work in whatever form will travel, hoping the work enters mainstream music and entertainment, because cultural reach is what turns an idea into social impact.

Founded by Dr WELI, Sydney-based Brazilian-born music artist and behavioural ecologist (PhD, ANU). Winner of Science Magazine's Dance Your PhD 2024. Falling Walls Engage 2025 Top 30 worldwide. WildWooHoo has carried this work to 238+ media features across five continents.

We are a home of creation, not a service studio. Our own projects, our own audience, our own path to impact. We welcome creative collaborators, research partners, commissioners, and funders who want to build something the world actually feels.
