Comments

This was a color remake of an earlier black and white Silly Symphony, also titled "The Fox Hunt."

From Jerry Edwards : Although a remake of the black and white 1931 Silly Symphony with many similar scenes, I enjoy how Goofy and Donald are used in this update. This is generally entertaining with several fun gags.

From Baruch Weiss : I have never seen the Silly Symphony version of this cartoon, but I guess this version is okay. I enjoyed the ending where Donald thinks he caught the fox, but it ends up being a skunk instead!
