Cannibal Capers is a Silly Symphonies animated Disney short film. It was released in 1930.[1]

Plot

The film begins with a group of cannibals gathering together for a tribal dance. The dance is later interrupted by a fierce lion who engages in a silly chase with one of the cannibals. The film ends with all of the cannibals surrounding the hysterical lion.[2]
