Summary:
Bosko and Honey go
to the zoo.
Description:
Bosko and Honey are
riding to the zoo on a bicycle, though Bosko's bicycling skills leaving
much to be desired. "Be careful, Bosko!" shouts Honey as Bosko
hits rock after rock which propel her into the air. As they arrive at
the zoo entrance Honey asks "Won't this be fun, Bosko!", but
they are both startled by a lion's roar. "C'mon Honey, that lion
won't hurt you" says Bosko, as he leads Honey into the zoo. As they
approach the lion's cage, the beast lunges towards them, causing the couple
to flee with fright. "Bosko, ain't that cute!" Honey says as
they view two little fish playing leap-frog in an aquarium. Soon a huge
fish swims by, growling at the couple and then at us! An octopus and its
children come by next, but as Bosko and Honey watch them an ostrich snatches
away Bosko's hat. Bosko pursues the bird, finds some rope and lassos it
by the neck. Bosko ties his end of the rope to a tree, but the ostrich
yanks Bosko around the tree and into the air. Bosko lands on a porcupine,
who angrily pulls his needles out of Bosko's rear end. Bosko continues
in pursuit of the bird, and even manages to grab it by the tail, but suddenly
the ostrich swallows Bosko's hat. Bosko then forces the bird to sit on
a nest until it lays an egg, which Bosko cracks open revealing his hat
inside. Bosko laughs at the bird and walks off, but the ostrich follows
him and tries once again to grab the hat. "Beat it!" Bosko shouts,
but then the bird begins to sob. Bosko soothes the beast by playing a
cheerful tune on his flute, which the ostrich dances to, while beavers
beat their tails and monkeys scratch each other to the beat. The monkeys
begin to delouse themselves, and upon find a particularly large bug place
it on a plate and grab some silverware! They begin to fight over their
meal -- one even stabs the other with a fork -- but Bosko intervenes.
"Uh-uh! Naughty, naughty!" he shouts, after which one of the
monkeys yanks on his nose. Bosko puts the monkey over his knee and begins
to spank its behind, but a huge ape appears and begins to chase Bosko
through the zoo. Bosko then hits a tree limb, allowing the ape to catch
up to him. Bosko tries to act nonchalant, but the little monkey kicks
him in the kneecap, and the huge ape lets out a huge roar and chases Bosko
again. Bosko manages to leap out of the cage and onto a vine, but that
vine turns out to be a snake. Bosko then falls right onto the lion, who
begins to chase after Bosko, the ostrich, and a walrus! Finally, the animals
all crash into a wall, where they somehow meld into a hideous three-headed
beast.
Notes:
- The animation of
Bosko and Honey riding to the zoo looks like it's reused from Bosko
and Honey.
- The animation of
Bosko spanking the monkey's behind looks like it's reused from Congo
Jazz.
- The animation of
Bosko being chased by a lion looks like it's reused from Bosko
Shipwrecked!.
