Mickey's Elephant
Directed by Hamilton Luske, David Hand
Produced by Walt Disney Productions
A lighthearted 1930s cartoon short about animal rivalry and jealousy, resolved through playful mischief and slapstick humor.
A friend shipped Mickey a baby elephant named Bobo as a playmate for Pluto. Pluto's first introduction is to Bobo's trunk, through a fence. He's not thrilled, and marches away. The playful Bobo grabs Pluto's tail and follows. Pluto's devil self tells him he's being replaced, and tells him to attack with red pepper.
