Mongooses (mongeese?) are some of the fucking coolest little mother fuckers. And that's one of the reasons I love this film.

Great animated short, and it never hurts to have Orson Welles narrating.

There's something wrong with everybodys eyes... in the short.

A fun little animation for kids, adopted from the Rudyard Kipling short story. Kind of lame that they don't show Rikki killing the snakes, and make him seem overly cute, but overall, it's well-paced, with good atmosphere, and retains the solid narration (aided by Orson Welles' booming, raspy bass) and dialogue of the Kipling work.

A Chuck Jones masterpiece.

I loved it as a kid! A great little family short that deserves a lot more attention.
