My wife has been telling me about one of her favorite cartoons for some time now. It’s a 1956 Disney short called “In the Bag.” Well, last night she finally got me to watch it. I’ll admit. It’s pretty cute. It offers visual commentary on park conservation, workplace management, and survival of the fittest — all in one 7.5 minute span. Smokey the Bear even makes a guest appearance! Add to the mix suspense, peril, and a blazing swing choreography, and we’ve got a clip that’s a hit for all ages. Enjoy:

I, too, always loved that cartoon! I remember being mad, as a kid, when the ranger said, “Cheater’s never prosper,” because the other bears cheated by dumping all of their garbage into Humphrey’s section and THEY got to eat. Oh, well. I’m glad Crystal was finally able to convince you it was worth a view. I mean, you can’t go wrong with a Smokey cameo.

What was the park ranger cooking? Chicken Catchatori? Sounds a little gourmet for somebody that probably dropped out of community college
