Notes

• Because Native American stereotypes play a prominent role in the second half, this short has rarely aired on American television.
• This is one of only two Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies released between "Porky and Teabiscuit" and "Hare-um Scare-um" to not feature "Warner Bros" in a banner during the opening rings, the other one is "Wise Quacks".
