''Hunky and Spunky'' is a 1938 animated short film (eight minutes) from Creator/MaxAndDaveFleischer.
Hunky and Spunky are a mother and child burro somewhere in the southwest desert (Arizona or Mexico, if the saguaro cacti are any indication). Hunky teaches Spunky how to find water by kicking a saguaro over. Unfortunately, while Hunky is taking a nap under a rock, Spunky runs afoul of a mean prospector, who lassos Spunky and forces the burro to work as a pack mule. When Hunky realizes that her child has been kidnapped, she charges off to the rescue.
Part of the ''WesternAnimation/ColorClassics'' series made by the Fleischers for Paramount. Six more Hunky and Spunky cartoons would follow.
