What happens
Merbabies is a Silly Symphonies animated Disney short film. It was released on December 9, 1938. It is a collaboration between Walt Disney and Harman and Ising and the first to involve the duo in a decade; Harman and Ising had worked for Disney for his Oswald the Lucky Rabbit series before leaving for Warner Bros. Pictures. Harman and Ising also donated artists to Disney to work on the production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937). It is one of the last shorts of the Silly Symphonies series.
