Dale R This is a featurette that was released as a double feature with The Rescuers. It is about a bear cub and young raccoon that get stranded together in the wild and become friends. For me this felt more like a DisneyNature release than a proper adventure film. The film quality was that of a portable film camera of the time and felt like a story added to some natural stuff that was captured with a few scenes that may have been studio shot. I’m not sure on that, just my best guess. This film has a few cute moments and I’d recommend it if you like nature films and animals.

Another real life adventures from Disney, all framed about a pilgrimage of an unlikely pair in the wilderness. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review r 9 Even at just 48 minutes, 'A Tale of Two Critters' is an utter bore. There is nothing original or interesting about this film, it's something Disney have done numerous times before - it's 1961's 'Nikki, Wild Dog of the North' mixed with 1969's 'Rascal'. The amount of bear cubs in this studio's work is quite something! Like that '61 production, and releases like 'The Legend of Lobo' and 'King of the Grizzlies' for that matter, this is very bad. There is nothing to latch onto and enjoy, it's just a number of different animals thrown (almost literally) together for a would-be documentary. Mayf Nutter does an alright job as narrator, but is barely any different to the narrators from other similar productions. Like most, if not all, of Disney's nature/documentary/adventure films, this isn't worth a watch - at least in my opinion. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Typical Disney nature film of the 70s about a bear cub and raccoon who become friends after they're swept downriver and are separated from their families. If you've watched "The Incredible Journey" or "Charlie the Lonesome Cougar" or most any other of Disney's animal movies, you've probably seen this one before, but still, it's unpretentiously entertaining.
