A Day at the Zoo (1939)

A Day at the Zoo Here we are at one one country's most interesting zoos. Here we find the wolf, in his natural setting. Next, a pack of camels.

A North American Greyhound. And here, two bucks. And five scents.

And here, two friendly Elks. Hello, Bill. Hello, Bill.

Hello, Bill. Hello, Bill. No zoo would be complete without a monkey cage.

HEY, SISTER! CAN'T YA READ? Mother Nature's own weather man; the little groundhog and his shadow.

Over here, we find . . .

Hey. Hey. Hey.

Don't annoy that lion. It's dangerous. Can't you read that sign?

You'd better take my advice and leave him alone. Shame. Shame.

You're a bad boy. The skunk cage is always a center of interest. Well, we're lucky.

It's feeding time for the giraffe. Listen now, fella. This is the second time I've had to speak to you.

Leave that lion alone. I'm warning you. I'm a bad boy.

And here we come to a family of white rabbits. Of course, you all know how fast they multiply. Now over here in the bird house, we find the wise old owl.

Whooo? You. Me?

Yes. Oooh. An interesting bird is the South African Talkng Parrot.

Polly want a cracker? I said, Polly want a cracker? Nah, give me a short beer.

Another interesting bird is the Alcatraz Jail Bird. I didn't do it, I tell ya. Okay, I was framed, see?

Yeah, I'm innocent. I want to see the D. A.

They can't do this to me, see? They can't hang this on me. I didn't do it, I tell ya.

I didn't do it, I tell ya. Oh he did so do it. I saw him with my very own eyes.

So there. Over here, we find mother ostrich on her nest. Well you do have something to crow about.

Ah, ah, ah, ah! Look out! Look out!

Well, a jackpot. For the last time, you'd better stop annoying that lion if you know what's good for you. I'm a bad boy.

New to the zoo is an elephant, just in from Africa. Hello, Express Company? This is Joe Jumbo.

Well, send it up right away. You know, those guys have had my trunk for a week. And here we have a [laughs] .

. . These are some things we had left over from that last New Year's party.

Pacing back and forth in their cage, we find two restless panthers. Bread and butter. Bread and butter.

Bread and butter. Bread and butter. Bread and butter.

Bread and butter. Well, here we have J. Wellington Buttonhook.

Mr Buttonhook used to thrill thousands at the circus by putting his head in a lion's mouth. In this cage, we find the Rocky Mountain Wild Cat. Hey, bud.

Hey. Hey. Just a minute, bud.

Tell me, just what made you wild? What made me wild? What made me wild?

Well I'll tell you. They called my name out at bank night and I wasn't there! Well, I guess that little fella finally took my advice and went home.

I'm a bad boy.
