Canción Animal is the fifth album released by the Argentine rock band Soda Stereo, released in September 1990.

It is considered one of the best and most influential albums in the history of Latin American rock music.

Many regard it as the best album to ever come out of South America. In 2007, the Argentine edition of Rolling Stone ranked it 9 on its list of "The 100 Greatest Albums of National Rock".
