Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDaffy calls Elmer Fudd by his first name several times in this short. He also breaks the fourth wall briefly at the very end of the cartoon and addresses the audience. And the fox sounds like an early incarnation of the dog character, Foghorn Leghorn's nemesis.
- GoofsElmer is carrying a double barrel shotgun. But at one time he uses a slide action to load the shotgun. Shotguns can either be double barrel or slide action (in which case it has only one barrel). But there is no such thing as a double barrel slide action shotgun.

Featured review
"Obviously, I am dealing with inferior mentalities!"
It's duck season and Daffy finds himself in danger, not only from hunter Elmer Fudd, but also from a hungry fox. So he does what any sensible duck would do and tries to pit his two enemies against one another. It's a very good short, directed by Arthur Davis, with Daffy throwing out one funny line after another. Elmer and the fox are both enjoyable but this is Daffy's show. He's at his manic best here. I don't think he shuts up for more than two seconds the whole cartoon! The animation is beautiful with nice colors and well-drawn characters and backgrounds. Carl Stalling's music perfectly matches the action. The voice work, from legends Mel Blanc and Arthur Q. Bryan, is flawless. A fun cartoon Daffy fans will love. And remember, ladies (and moronic hunters disguised as ducks), never fall for the "I can get you a screen test for Warner Bros." routine.
