Indistinguishable hunters with indistinguishable dogs hunt indistinguishable rabbits. The hunters are armed with guns. The rabbits are better armed, with novelty store items in this funny Terrytoon.
Eddie Donnelly offers a distinctly Terry version of Bugs Bunny, with various rabbits pulling useful items from offstage and getting out-sized effects from small causes. The rabbits start out cavorting together. There's a certain group think in Terry characters, from the great variety of insects who work together, to Heckle and Jeckle; I could never tell which one was Heckle and which was t'other, but then Chip and Dale always seemed alike and the Goofy Gophers too. Perhaps that was part of the joke.
Perhaps that was part of the joke here: there's nothing special about Bugs Bunny. Were Paul Terry's staff slipping subtext past their audience of small children? Or were they upset because they didn't have a breakout star like Bugs?
