| abstract | - Jungle Jitters is a one-reel animated cartoon short subject in the Merrie Melodies series, produced in Technicolor and released to theatres on February 19, 1938 by Warner Bros. Pictures and The Vitaphone Corporation. It was produced by Leon Schlesinger and directed by Friz Freleng, with musical supervision by Carl W. Stalling and voices by Mel Blanc. The cartoon features a number of racial stereotypes throughout the short (such as people in blackface), which prompted United Artists (the then-current owners of the pre-1948 WB library) to withhold this cartoon from syndication in 1968, making it one of the Censored Eleven.

It has ended up in low pitch, poor quality, bootleg copies over the years, but there is an a.a.p. copy that is in average condition that exists as well.
