The Practical Pig is a Silly Symphonies cartoon. It was released on February 24, 1939, and directed by Dick Rickard. It was the second-to-last Silly Symphony made, and the fourth and final cartoon starring The Three Pigs. Like its prequels, "The Practical Pig" incorporates the song "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?". It was the only Three Little Pigs Silly Symphony that was released as a standalone "Three Little Pigs Cartoon", suggesting that they were to get their own series of cartoons.
