When a young man receives a Christmas gift that he doesn't like, it's time for a story. And it's a beautifully animated story about a wolf -the very first wolf- who finds he has no friends. Like the description says, "It's not easy to make friends when you eat them." Can this poor wolf change his life in such a way as to make the other animals tolerate him, or at least stop fleeing in fear? He gets some helpful advice from a hedgehog and other animals along the way.
"Unloved" is an ad for the French grocery store chain Intermarché from the studio Romance Agency. You won't mind that, because the actual advertising is only a few seconds at the end. You won't mind it being in French, either, because there are subtitles for the scant dialogue. However, the focus is still food, and that comes across as very French as well. (via Metafilter)

Sheesh, that's all well and good, but what about the poor FISH?
And why wasn't the heron ostracised as well, there is an entire sub set of stories there, relevant to, at least, the fish ... or did they consider that fish are not sentient like the land and air based fauna ?
Seems a bit rough to categorise them so, especially when you remember that a fish is used as a symbol of Jesus, and their scales are used for the star sign Libra !
I wrote this in French, presume your auto-translate is switched on.
This is Ratatouille writ fresh !
The misunderstood flea and plague infested creature, hated by all, finds love and acceptance through cooking.
