Free Extinct Coloring Pages: 17 printable PDF designs from the 2021 animated comedy about two fluffy flummels, featuring the curious, rule-breaking Op, her cautious brother Ed, the pair side by side in several duo pages, their new friend Clarance, and the movie’s title logo. A printable PDF is attached to every sheet, and screen coloring works just as well.
Extinct was directed by David Silverman, with Raymond S. Persi as co-director, and produced by Cinesite Animation. Op and Ed live on a Galapagos island in 1835 until a mysterious flower sends them to modern-day Shanghai, where they discover that their whole species has vanished. Rachel Bloom voices Op, Adam DeVine voices Ed, and Ken Jeong voices Clarence. The film reached a worldwide audience when it arrived on Netflix in November 2021.
These pages are simple and welcoming to color. Flummels are round, rabbit-like creatures with a hole right through the middle of their bodies, so every page offers big, soft shapes that young kids can fill quickly, while the duo designs give older children a chance to give each sibling a different fur palette.
What’s Inside This Collection
Op and Ed fill almost the whole set of 17 designs, while Clarance and the logo complete it.
Op
Op appears in two solo portraits with her bright, eager expression. The film shows her fur in warm Brown and Cream, so start with a light Tan base and add Brown on her back and ears.
Ed
Ed has three solo pages showing his nervous, careful personality. Color his fur soft Gray with lighter Silver on his face and belly, which sets him apart from his sister.
Op and Ed Together
Five duo pages show the siblings standing, posing, and exploring as a team. Keeping Op warm brown and Ed cool gray on every page makes the pair easy to tell apart at a glance.
Clarance
Clarance appears in one portrait. A friendly palette of Tan and Brown works well, with one bright accent color to match his lively role in the story.
Logo and General Pages
The movie logo plus several general printable sheets finish off the set. Fill the logo letters with bold Orange and Teal, and add little doughnut-shaped flummels around the edges for decoration.
What Extinct Coloring Pages Do
Learning about extinction and conservation. The film’s big twist is that the flummels’ entire species has disappeared, which makes it a gentle starting point for talking about real extinct animals like the dodo and the passenger pigeon. Coloring Op and Ed can lead to simple conversations about why some animals vanish and how people protect endangered species today. Kids can look up an endangered animal and color it next to the flummels.
Round shapes for small hands. Children ages 2 to 7 strengthen finger control when they color large, rounded areas, which is the type of hands-on play American Academy of Pediatrics advises for early writing readiness. The flummels’ simple doughnut bodies make it easy to practice smooth, even coloring. The hole in the middle also teaches kids to color around a space.
Fluffy, relaxing fun. Anxious feelings eased with structured coloring, a 2005 Art Therapy Journal result. The soft, cuddly look of the flummels encourages light, gentle strokes and a calm pace. These pages make a cozy, quiet-time activity.
Celebrating sibling teamwork. Op loves adventure, and Ed prefers to play it safe, but together they solve problems neither could handle alone. The duo pages open a chat about how siblings and friends can have different personalities and still work well together. A finished duo page makes a thoughtful gift for a sibling.
How to Color Extinct Pages Well
- Warm and cool fur: Use warm Tan and Brown for Op and cool Gray and Silver for Ed so the siblings contrast nicely.
- Fluffy texture: Color with short, curved strokes to make the fur look soft and fuzzy.
