On this day in 1945, the Pluto cartoon ‘The Legend of Coyote Rock’ was released. Pluto is tasked with guarding a flock of lambs, going on the defensive when Bent-Tail the coyote arrives on the scene. Pluto chases Bent-Tail into the desert, creating the Coyote Rock landmark in the process. The story was inspired by the Brothers Grimm fairy tale “The Wolf and the Seven Young Kids,” which was itself based on an Aesop’s fable called “The Dog and the Sheep.” [80 years ago in 2025]
