The Fox and the Crow is an animated character.

The Fox and the Crow were created by Frank Tashlin for the Screen Gems studio.[2]

The characters, the refined but gullible Fauntleroy Fox and the streetwise Crawford Crow, appeared in a series of animated short subjects released by Screen Gems through its parent company, Columbia Pictures.[2][3]

The first film in the series was called The Fox and the Grapes and was directed by Tashlin.The short, which features a series of gags as the Fox repeatedly tries and fails to obtain a bunch of grapes in the possession of the Crow, is an inspiration for his popular Road Runner cartoons.[5]

Screen Gems continued to produce Fox and the Crow shorts after Bob Wickersham directed the last film in the series.The "Fox and Crow" series continued through 1949 after Screen Gems acquired enough completed films.

By this time, Columbia had signed a distribution deal with a new animation studio that would produce three "Fox and the Crow" shorts.John Hubley directed all three UPA Fox and the Crow cartoons.The first two were nominated for an Academy Award.
