Bosko's Fox Hunt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bosko's Fox Hunt is a 1931 one-reel short subject featuring Bosko as part of the Looney Tunes series.[1] It was released on December 12, 1931 and is directed by Hugh Harman.[2] The film score was composed by Frank Marsales.

The cartoon's plot is somewhat similar to that of the later Looney Tunes cartoons Porky's Duck Hunt (1937) and Porky's Hare Hunt (1938).

Plot

[edit]

A gang of male animals set out on a fox hunt equipped with guns, horses and hounds; however, a fox evades them. The fox is discovered by Bosko and his dog, Bruno, who are out hunting foxes as well. The fox successfully evades Bosko and Bruno's attempts to catch or shoot him. Eventually, the two hunters are chased by a large mammoth-like creature, or maybe a wild boar, and fall in a heap on the ground, ending the film.
