Foreman: Alright, you! Coffee break's over. Get back to work!

Bear: [stutters] But, but I don't work here. I'm a bear.
Foreman: A what? A bear? *laughs* A BEAR? OH, BOY! *guffaws*
Foreman's Badge: What an excuse to keep from working! *laughs*

One could made the same analogy with an alligator and the state of Florida. One day it's a swamp; the next thing you know it's nothing but concrete and condominiums. Huh? That's the scene here as the bear hibernates, wakes up and now he's in the middle of a big city and then, inside a factory where nobody believes he's a bear. Why would they? Why would a bear be in a factor? What happened to the open land where he lived? Everyone has questions in here.
However one interprets this story, I enjoyed the artwork and the modern style of it in this cartoon. Like the story, the artwork is very different from the Looney Tunes we are used to seeing from the 1930s through the 1950s. In some respects, it is very '60-ish looking, a la The Pink Panther cartoons.
Whatever it is, if you own the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume Three, don't overlook this extra cartoon that is listed under "From The Vault."
