A Day at the Zoo
Directed by Tex Avery
Produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, Leon Schlesinger Productions
A lighthearted, rapid-fire cartoon romp through the zoo built entirely on visual gags, slapstick, and irreverent humor.
A tour of the zoo, in typical Tex Avery style: a series of one-liners and sight gags, punctuated by Egghead teasing a lion at intervals, despite the admonishments of the narrator.
