Origin[]
The Hippopotamus is said to be a big brute that is armored like a tank. The Narrator says his skin is so tough that even a bullet can hardly pierce it. Porky Pig is seen as a demonstrator on the narrator's commentary about the toughness of the hippo's skin. Porky demonstrates he consistently prodding a stick to the hippo's skin during his commentary. Then, out of nowhere, both commentaries contradict otherwise as the hippo breaks down laughing, ticklish at the stick poking him.

Notes[]
- This cartoon entered the public domain in 1970 due to Warner Bros. not renewing the copyright.
- Despite Porky Pig being heavily featured in Who's Who in the Zoo, Porky himself does not enter the public domain until 2031 due to his first cartoon, I Haven't Got a Hat (1935), still being under copyright.
