Elmer J. Fudd is a character and one of the main antagonists of the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies theatrical shorts. His main objective is to hunt Bugs Bunny, but usually ends up injuring himself or accidentally antagonizing other characters. Elmer's signature catchphrase is, "Shhh. Be vewy vewy quiet, I'm hunting wabbits", as well as his trademark laughter. Being one of the few characters to not have their voice be originated by Mel Blanc, his voice was originated by Arthur Q. Bryan.
Elmer's protégé in Tiny Toon Adventures is Elmyra Duff.
Character description
He speaks with an unusual speech impediment, replacing his Rs and Ls with Ws, such as in the word "rabbit" being replaced with "wabbit," and referring to Bugs Bunny as a "screwy" or "wascally wabbit."
