''The Timid Toreador'' is a [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1940]] WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes cartoon, co-directed by Creator/BobClampett and Norm Mccabe and starring WesternAnimation/PorkyPig.

The cartoon is set in a Mexican town. After a sight gag filled opening, we're treated to Porky Pig strolling through the streets and selling very spicy hot tamales, one of which roasts a chicken that unwittingly eats one. Elsewhere, a bullfight takes place between a cowardly matador, Punchy Pancho, and a bull named Slapsy Rosenbull. After some comedic escapades between the bull and his victim, Porky unwittingly walks into the ring and lands himself in hot water when the bull starts gunning for him.
