Synopsis
Woody tricks Gabby Gator into a swampland chase. The banjo-plucking alligator shoots down what he thinks is a southbound goose, except that it's a woodpecker. In the end, Gabby is launched into outer space.
The cartoon contains an in-joke reference; when Gabby shoots down Woody, he finds Woody is wearing a dogtag reading, "In case of accident, contact Walter Lantz, Hollywood, California."
