Open the gif in Safari or other Internet browser to see the animation or in Finder click on the gif then press the Spacebar to see the animation.

 

You can see the Frames in Preview but not the actual animation itself.

All that means is no HTML file is included in the save.

 

Your Gif should still save as animated.
