Behind the scenes

  • The Title is a pun of the classic movie and story: The Wizard of OZ
  • This cartoon failed to come up with mock latin names, so they just used the regular latin names for both the Road Runner and Coyote.

Errors

  • The Road Runner actually beeped like a regular car or truck but was able to fix his own sound effect.
