MEET THE ANIMALS WHO GIVE BABY YODA HIS VOICE


Updated: We have learned that the two animals recorded for Baby Yoda’s voice are Kima the Kinkajou and Acacia the Bat-eared Fox. Both live at Wild Wonders wildlife sanctuary in San Diego.

For more about the amazing work they are doing please visit their WEBSITE and social media accounts on YOUTUBE, FACEBOOK and INSTAGRAM.

As we reported (HERE) Skywalker Sound Supervising Sound Editor Matthew Wood revealed the details of how “Baby Yoda’s” voice is made on Twitter.

Now that the “Kinkajou is outta the bag” David Acord has shown us the actual animals that were recorded for the voice.
