George Washington "Bugs" Bunny[1] is an animated character created at Leon Schlesinger Productions, later Warner Bros. Cartoons. He is an anthropomorphic gray rabbit who is famous for his flippant, insouciant personality and his portrayal as a trickster. Although formative versions of the character existed as early 1938, the fully realized Bugs Bunny is generally recognized as having made his debut in the 1940 Academy Award-nominated short subject A Wild Hare. He has primarily appeared in animated cartoons, most notably the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodiesseries of theatrical short films. His popularity there led to his becoming a corporate mascot of the Warner Bros. company.
