You can convert it to frames with imagemagick, then use ffmpeg to turn that into a gif:

magick animated.webp frames.png
ffmpeg -i frames-%d.png animated.gif

EDIT, or with a single imagemagick command:
convert -format gif file.webp file.gif

Weird that it can't get the format from that .gif extension

Yeah, I was looking into that. They use the webp muxer for generating files, but not for decoding. I'm not sure exactly why. That seems to be the reason ffmpeg can generate animated webp, but not read it.
