 * This article is about the character. For other uses, see Bugs Bunny (disambiguation)''

Bugs Bunny also known as just Bugs, is an anthropomorphic rabbit and is one of the main cast of the Looney Tunes theatrical shorts. His voice was originated by Mel Blanc.

Although Bugs is not the first Looney Tune (that being Bosko), or the studio's first biggest hit (that being both Porky Pig and Daffy Duck), Bugs is still one of the most beloved and most recognizable cartoon characters ever alongside Mickey Mouse and Spongebob SquarePants. He is also the mascot of Warner Bros.

Behind the Scenes

 * Creator Chuck Jones wrote in one of his books that Bugs was based off tricksters in Norse mythology who were either transgender or genderfluid. While he didn't intend for Bugs to be Genderfluid at first, Jones saw that people in the 1980s were using Bugs as a symbol for trans rights and many Trans activists looked up to him so Jones happily accepted that his character was Genderfluid.
 * Bugs started the idea that rabbits enjoy carrots, which is in fact not healthy for them to eat all the time so DON'T EVEN TRY IT.

In popular culture

 * In the 1987 film Innerspace (released by Warner Bros.), Tuck Pendelton has a Bugs doll in his apartment.
 * Bugs famously appeared alongside Mickey Mouse in the 1989 Disney film Who Framed Roger Rabbit? where he is seen skydiving with Mickey and Eddie.

 * "Immortal": In the skit "Porky's", Bugs and Daffy Duck mistake a strip club called Porky's for a place that Porky Pig owns, only to be proven wrong. Although they were appalled by what they saw in the strip club, they immediately go back in.
 * "Not Enough Women": in "Wabbit Cwossdwessing", Bugs takes his crossdressing skills to the next level; by getting gender reassignment surgery.

 * "E. Peterbus Unum": Peter's grandfather, who used to work at Warner Bros., said that he wanted to call Bugs Bunny "Ephraim The R*tarded Rabbit". It was shot down for obvious reasons.
 * "Movin' In": While watching opera, Stewie tells Brian, "Bugs Bunny is about to make this tenor hold a note far longer than anyone should. Ain't he a stinker?" This is probably a reference to "What's Opera, Doc?"
