Transcription
Plot
Donald Duck sings "A-Hunting We Will Go" as he takes off on a fox hunt, carrying nothing but a hunting horn and the leashes of several bloodhounds. Donald struggles to control the bloodhounds as they search for the scent of a fox. Meanwhile, Goofy rides a horse as part of the main hunting party. When his horse refuses to jump over a hedge, Goofy demonstrates himself how to make the jump, but discovers a pond directly on the other side.
Eventually, Donald finds the fox and chases him into a burrow. Donald uses blasts from his hunting horn to blow the fox out of the hole. Finally, Donald believes he has cornered the fox in a hollow log. He calls all the other hunters who excitedly arrive at the scene. But when Donald pulls the animal out, he discovers it's nothing but a skunk. The hunters run away in terror. As the skunk prepares to spray, Donald runs away as well as the cartoon ends.
