Sorry Safari, released in October 1962, is the 11th in a series of thirteen Tom and Jerry cartoons directed by Gene Deitch.
Tom joins his owner on a hunting safari in Kenya. Jerry has hidden himself in the owner's luggage, and Tom quickly sees him and attempts to get rid of him. His attempts fail, with the added complication that the owner (who does not see Jerry) sees the attempts as bumbling around by Tom. Tom sees Jerry climbing up the behind of the elphant and attempts to shoot him, but he falls on the ground and gets stuck in a tree with his nose plopped inside one of the owner's guns. Tom ends up falling onto the elephant. The owner twists the gun around him and shoots it, leaving Tom deaf, Tom cleans his ears to hear the rainforest noises (mostly kookaburas). Jerry gets into Tom's way, Tom attempts to get Jerry, in which he is near the guns. As Tom swifted at Jerry, the owner turns to him and yells, "DON'T TOUCH MY GUNS!". Tom, frightened, jumps down on the belt of the elephant. Jerry starts unbuckling the belt. The owner, singing in a happy medly (Abb-ah-doo... Tata Ta Ta Ta Da... Dee Doo...) falls down onto the grass. Tom walks up to the red seat, In which the owner covers Tom with it. Before they reunite with their elephant, they spot a ferocious lion.
