A Hunting We Won't Go (1932)

A Hunting We Won't Go is a fan-made episode of Happy Tree Friends

The crow is hunting for a fox as there is a $15.00 bounty on fox furs. Meanwhile, the fox discovers there is a $15.00 bounty on crow pelts and eventually the two discover each other. After introducing themselves, the crow gets wise and measures the fox head to toe to discover his "worth". The crow then tricks the fox into dancing until he's cornered against a wall while the crow gets ready to fire his musket. The crow finds out, however, that fox furs become worthless when riddled with buckshot so he runs to get a club instead. While he gets the club, the fox steals his musket and chases the crow with it, eventually cornering HIM against a tree and gets ready to fire. The crow, however, decides to take it like a man and the touched fox just doesn't have the heart to pull the trigger... or does he?

Willy grabs a shotgun displayed on the wall and walks outside, preparing to go on a hunt. Billy comes to him with a hunting dog he bought from the petstore. As they leave, Milly sees Disco Bear flirting with Giggles and Petunia, who walk away annoyed. Milly decides to try and kiss him.

Willy looks at a photograph of deer hopping in a meadow, then imagines himself mounting a deer head to the wall over his fireplace. He looks around for any deer and sees a circus tent suspiciously in the woods. Mime comes out of the tent to prepare his campfire, when a flying bullet just barely misses his head. Mime gets on his unicycle and flees as Willy, Billy, and the hunting dog chase after him.

Mime stops at an area surrounded by throny vines. As the hunters approach, he quickly makes an imaginary door and runs through it. Willy tries jumping towards Mime, but he closes the imaginary door, causing Willy to land in the thorns. The dog sniffs Mime's unicycle but can find no sign of him. Meanwhile, Mime walks through another imaginary door, inadvertantly stumbling off a cliff. Now wounded by thorns, Willy stops at a lake filled with ducks. He imagines himself eating roasted duck, and tells Billy to hand over his gun. He shoots, and his bad aim sends the ducks flying. He tries again and manages to hit one. He then tells the dog to retrieve the duck, but it is asleep. Willy kicks the dog, waking up but putting it in a bad mood. Willy and Billy run for their lives, then Willy climbs a tree. Billy plays dead to make the dog go away. The dog sniffs him and then attacks.

Willy and Billy walk home badly injured and without a hunting trophy. Nearby, Disco Bear is seen flirting with Petunia (making her feel uncomfortable. Milly pounces on him from behind and tries to kiss him. Willy sees then and, with jealous rage, shoots Disco Bear several times.

Later, Willy is seen relaxing on a couch next to a rug made of Disco Bear's skin. Billy comes by and sees a bump on the rug, then looks underneath. The dog jumps out from under the rug and mauls Billy to death.
