A tiny elephant arrives in the city and spooks various inhabitants.

Chuck Jones

Punch Trunk

maybe it was like Roswell

I originally saw &quot;Punch Trunk&quot; in the compilation film &quot;Daffy Duck&apos;s Quackbusters&quot;, and I&apos;ve now seen it in its own form (or should I say &quot;I SEEN IT!&quot;?). It was one of Chuck Jones&apos;s many completely outlandish shorts during the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies heyday. My interpretation is pure conjecture, but I get the feeling that the cartoon may have been an allusion to things like the possible UFO landing in Roswell; it seems like the sort of thing that could never happen, but what if it could? Just how would we respond if a five-inch-tall elephant started walking around the city? 

But like I said, that&apos;s just my interpretation. The cartoon was probably intended as pure entertainment (and it is fairly funny, if not Jones&apos;s best cartoon ever). As it&apos;s not readily available on video or DVD, you can watch it on YouTube.
