''A Day At The Zoo'' is a [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1939]] WesternAnimation/MerrieMelodies cartoon, directed by Creator/TexAvery.
The short (like most of Tex Avery's theatrical cartoon work both on WB and when we worked at MGM) is a series of visual and verbal gags, usually based on outrageous stereotypes, corny, yet clever wordplay; and topical references, is presented as a narrator (Gil Warren) describes a "tour" of the "Kalama Zoo" where the animals have nonsensical names, display anthropomorphic behavior, or illustrate punny gags. The only thing remotely related to a narrative is the running gag of Egghead (the prototype Elmer character) teasing a lion and paying for it in the end.
