This sound is mostly associated with Pocoyo.
This sound effect can be found on Soundstorm Sound Effects Library, which was made by SoundDogs. It was originally an United Artists sound effect that debuted in Run Silent Run Deep (1958). It is mostly known for being used as an ahooga horn in the Spanish-British-French-South Korean children's CGI television series, Pocoyo, in seasons 1-2 when the characters get surprised, shocked or scared. Also, it is almost similar to HORN, KLAXON - SUBMARINE KLAXON: SEVERAL 01 from the 20th Century Fox Sound Effects Library and is the same effect as R18-31-Old Car Ahooga Horn.wav.
