Pigbird is a 1981 animated short comedy film directed by Richard Condie.
The film was cooperated by the now defunct Canadian Pacific Airlines (which at the time was originally called CP Air), and shown and produced by Revenue Canada.
The animated film is a PSA about custom safety.
The plot tells the story of a citizen trying to sneak in an exotic creature through customs, and then the officer says that they can't bring in the creature. So they successfully manage to bring the creature through customs illegally by handing the creature to another citizen secretly. Only for the citizen to find out that the creature has been infected with insects inside his fur, and then eventually, the insects suddenly spread through the city, invading buses, and other innocent bystanders.
