What happens

Porky's Duck Hunt is a 1937 American animated comedy short film directed by Fred Avery. The cartoon was released on April 17, 1937. It is the 84th film in the Looney Tunes series, the 22nd cartoon to feature Porky Pig, the first to feature Daffy Duck and the first to have Mel Blanc voice Porky, as Joe Dougherty was fired due to his uncontrollable stuttering. Daffy Duck would become the series' most prominent character, appearing across films spanning 31 years until his retirement in 1968. It is also the first film in the series to credit Robert Cannon, who would become one of Avery's animators at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
