Lumber Jerks is a three hundred and fiftieth Looney Tunes theatrical short. It was distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures and The Vitaphone Corporation on June 25, 1955. It was written by Warren Foster, produced by Edward Selzer, and directed by Friz Freleng.
When the Goofy Gophers move into a new tree in the forest, and while they were gathering nuts for the winter, they are shocked to discover that it had been cut down and taken away! So the gophers go to get their tree back, only for the chase to take them directly to a lumber mill.
