Booba is a digitally animated children's cartoon created by a small Russian animation studio called 3DSparrow. The show is about a curious creature who sets out to explore the world around him with his friends. Booba is described as sweet and inquisitive, like a five-year-old child and he is only 70 centimeters tall. ^{[6] [32]}

Booba is a hairy, white monster with big blue eyes. He does not speak, instead muttering random and senseless grunts. The short web series features 5-10 minute episodes of Booba goofing around and teaming up with all sorts of lovable creatures along the way. In the first season alone, Booba encounters Loola the Rat, Googa the Parrot, Soosa the Hedgehog, Dooda the Worm, Scooba the Octopus and Mooma the Cat. All of the characters have a name structure that's phonetically similar to Booba's. In the first few episodes, Booba had claws, but they were swapped for normal fingertips to make him more appealing to children. ^[29]

In August of 2018, Booba reached a two-year worldwide agreement with Netflix. ^[31]

The show has generated over two billion views since it debuted on YouTube in 2014. It was first posted on a Russian web forum, Pikabu.ru, with the writing: ^[27] Booba Cartoon is not a normal cartoon, it teaches the importance of moral values and educates the kids.^[40]

The series gets about 80 million views each month on Youtube and also airs on Karusel (Карусель) in Russia as well as the popular KedooTV Youtube channel alongside Om Nom, Paper Tales, Symo & Rose.
