Ridley Jones centers on a 6-year-old girl who lives in a treehouse inside the Museum of Natural History with her mother and grandmother.
At night, the museum’s exhibits come alive. This includes a bison named Fred, who is non-binary.In the first episode, Fred’s gender is touched upon when lead character Jones asks another character, Peaches the monkey, if Fred is, “a she or a he?”“I don’t know.
They’re just a Fred,” replies Peaches. “Cool,” says Ridley.The character of Fred is voiced by Ezra Menas, who is also non-binary.
Menas previously voiced a non-binary character in a recent Pride episode of DreamWorks Animation’s Madagascar: A Little Wild.
