First, don't even think about using GIFs in
PageMaker. When the stars are properly aligned, one
may function well enough; but they are not supported.

Second, to fix the problem:

Open the GIFs in Photoshop. Image > Mode > RGB. Save
As ... TIFF or JPEG (your choice, but TIFF is
preferable with PageMaker).

Relink the images in the publication. Watch the
Control Palette to ensure that you don't distort them.
(PageMaker will make the new image the same
_dimensions_ as the old image, irrespective of what
this does to the horizontal and vertical scaling
percentages; so you may need to adjust manually.)

Try exporting again.
