Inki is an African child who runs into a denture-wearing lion while hunting with a spear. The lion chases the young native all over the place. The Minah Bird joins forces with Inki against the mighty lion, but proceeds to mess everything up for all.

==Censorship==
*Because this cartoon portrays stereotypes of Indian and Black cultures, it is no longer included in USA television packages, along with the other four Inki shorts. It includes scenes or situations that portray potentially offensive, negative or otherwise socially unacceptable content which may be perceived as fostering stereotypes of people of African heritage. Presumbly the ban took effect sometime in the mid-1980s.
==Notes==
*This short fell into the public domain in 1971 due to United Artists failing to renew the copyright in time. This is the only Inki short to fall into the public domain; all the rest in the series are under copyright.
