\u2018What a hunt!\u2019 is a short film by Steve<\/a> Cutts<\/a>, whose wonderfully dystopian<\/a> illustrations of modern life we recently published here<\/a>. This video, in support of animal<\/a> rights<\/a>, takes a creative approach to the issue of hunting<\/a> by featuring some of our best-loved animal<\/a> cartoon characters. A gung-ho poacher<\/a> goes after all of your childhood favorites: Baloo from the Jungle Book, Bugs Bunny, The Lion King and Pumba, and even Tony the Tiger from the Frosties cereal ads.<\/p>\n By using characters that are so well-known and well-loved, Cutts adds an extra dimension to the idea that animals<\/a> are equally as important as us- and that have as much of a right as we<\/a> do to live. Watching Yogi Bear and the others getting gunned down- even if it is<\/em> only a cartoon<\/a>– feels strangely upsetting. But it\u2019s all worth it for the great message (and a very<\/strong> satisfying ending\u2026)<\/p>\n This article (Here\u2019s What Your Favorite Cartoon Characters Think About Hunting<\/a>) is free and open source.
