In a bright English countryside morning, the gentry gather for the traditional fox hunt. The eccentric hunters—big, small, monocled—cause chaos: one is catapulted from his horse by a wall, deploys a hidden parachute, lands on a startled cow, is tossed into a mud puddle and then onto a pig. Meanwhile the hunted fox is cornered in a hollow log, surrounded by dogs, until a powerful, pungent ally—its skunk companion—intervenes to free it.
