Polar Trappers

1938 · 8 min

A brisk, silly cartoon full of slapstick chases and animal antics that's easy to enjoy without thinking.

Overview: Donald and Goofy are trappers in the frozen south (Antarctica) with different approaches. Donald sees a penguin and dresses as one to lure her to the chopping block; Goofy baits a trap with fish (then acts like a walrus to capture one that steals his bait bucket).
