Comments

From Ryan : I do not care too much for this short. It gets awfully tiring to see poor Donald being tormented by ants whom he wasn't doing any harm to whatsoever. The ending where his house is destroyed can make one feel sorry for Donald.

From Christian : Similar to what I mentioned in Test Pilot Donald, I enjoy seeing Donald humorously say, "My vase!" and it is also another one of my favorite Donald quotes.

I have seen "Uncle Donald's Ants" and would like to
