Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 > One question, in my testing, it seems like thumbnails are not generated
 on animated webp. Is this an expected behaviour?

 Yea, I discovered this as well in testing (see
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/35725#comment:120). I agree this
 should be improved if possible.


 Based on my understanding GD will not supported animated GIF/WebP, and
 likely never will because it's architecture was never built for multi-
 frame images. Imagick on the other hand should support resizing these
 images. Thanks @mikeschroder for pointing to #28474 which I had not seen.
