The production team worked to ensure authentic representations of names, language, and some of the cultural origins found with the animals themselves, while keeping in mind that animals are not a proxy for race and ethnicity.

For example, JunJun and his family are Philippine eagles, while Ellie is a moose; an animal not found in Jamaica.{{cite web |last1=Morales |first1=Wilson |title=Exclusive: Creative Producer Kareem Edouard, Ph.D. talks animated series 'Work It Out Wombats!' |url=https://www.blackfilmandtv.com/exclusives/exclusive-creative-producer-kareem-edouard-phd-talks-animated-series-work-it-out-wombats |website=BlackFilmandTV.com |access-date=February 10, 2023}}

The series is animated using Toon Boom Harmony. The characters are animated using complicated rigging systems that allow the animators to draw things by hand, thus giving each character their own nuances and walk cycles. The designs of the characters and settings are rounded in order to create a friendly, welcoming feel. Curvilinear perspective and hazing is used for the backgrounds to make the characters stand out.{{cite AV media |date= March 13, 2023 |title= ANIMATION: Behind the Scenes of Work It Out Wombats! on PBS KIDS |type=Video |language=English |url= https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yy3KiCgpxk |access-date= March 14, 2023 |publisher= Work It Out Wombats!}}

The lesbian characters of Leiko and Duffy caused the series to be controversial among conservative crowds. In May 2023, the Governor of Oklahoma, Kevin Stitt, vetoed a measure to provide state funding to Oklahoma Educational Television Authority for three years, due to their broadcasting of Work It Out Wombats! (and of Clifford the Big Red Dog (2019 TV series), which also features same-sex parents) and the claims that it "overly sexualizing" kids.{{Cite web |last=Forman |first=Carmen |title=Stitt vetoes OETA bill, accuses network of trying to 'indoctrinate' kids |url=https://tulsaworld.com/news/state-and-regional/govt-and-politics/stitt-vetoes-oeta-bill-accuses-network-of-trying-to-indoctrinate-kids/article_5fc1a3b8-e5da-11ed-ae48-c31a4283a5d3.html |access-date=2023-05-04 |website=Tulsa World |date=April 28, 2023 |language=en}}
