is a 1944 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer animated short directed by Tex Avery for MGM.
Big Heel-Watha is part of an Indian tribe that is dangerously short on food. The Chief orders his men to go out and hunt. The person who brings food back to the tribe will win the hand of the Chief's beautiful daughter, Minnie Hot-Cha.
While hunting, Big Heel comes across Screwy Squirrel. The cartoon becomes a series of comical traps and slapstick as Big Heel tries to capture Screwy. Finally, Big Heel admits defeat and bawls his eyes out. To make him feel better, Screwy decides to agree to become the tribe's dinner.
