Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Animated plots frequently involve natural enemies chasing or hunting each other.
Named for the Animated Series Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines. In that case, it's enemy pilots and an Instant Messenger Pigeon.
Can be Road Runner vs. Coyote if we see them comically failing repeatedly to catch it.

Tom and Jerry: The cat, Tom, is always chasing or otherwise trying to thwart the mouse, Jerry. It rarely ends well for Tom.

Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies:
Sylvester and Tweety. The former, a cat, really wants to eat the latter, a canary, but never succeeds.
Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner. Wile E. Coyote tries repeatedly and fails repeatedly to catch the Road Runner so he can feast on him.
Chuck Jones would muse that by the end of a typical Road Runner cartoon, the Coyote doesn't care fudge about the Road Runner. He just wants one of his contraptions to work.
Affable doofus hunter Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny and/or Daffy Duck.

One story in the Warhammer 40,000 comic Deff Skwadron involves the Orks repeatedly failing to intercept a messenger squig. They breed a special hunting squig to take it down, but find that it won't come back once the messenger is caught. The story ends with the skwadron's boss repeating "Catch that squig!"
