Wild-Wild-West Wingding
Starring: The Hair Bear Bunch Summary: A Wild-Wild-West exhibit opens at the zoo. Peevly takes the bears to the desert to help catch specimens, but they escape to a ghost town and disguise themselves as lawmen. The zookeepers are fooled and look elsewhere. Townspeople begin to come out of hiding and welcome the hairy new "sheriff" and his deputies. Their previous counterparts ran when they heard Sandy Claus was coming. Hair mistakes the outlaw's name for Santa Clause and puts up tinsel and ornaments to welcome him. When Sandy and his helpers arrive to rob the bank, the townsfolk beg the bears for help. Hair puts a "Bank" sign on the jail and the crooks walk right in. When he locks the door, they start firing their guns through the bars wildly. Peevly and Botch return and all the local wildlife volunteer to go to the zoo to escape the gunfire.

The Great Switcheroo
Starring: The Hair Bear Bunch Summary: The bears pretend to escape so Peevly and Botch will go look for them. While they're out, the bears think the zoo is really a wonderland. However, soon the other animals become restless and begin to misbehave or try to escape, forcing the Hair Bear Bunch to act like zookeepers.

After spending the day searching the dump, Peevly thinks the zoo would be a wonderland without the bears anyway, but by the time he and Botch get back, all the animals have escaped except the bears. They round them up at the amusement park and are careful to lock everyone up from now on, everyone except the Hair Bear Bunch, that is.
