duck
The extra treat for those who sit through the entire showing of credits at the end of a movie, the first notable example of which followed the movie Young Doctors In Love where the duck which had been seen sporadically throughout the movie made its final appearance.

The duck at the end of A Bug's Life showing out-takes of the film's making was hilarious.
