Bugs Bunny is a
funny animal animated cartoon character, best remembered for his starring roles in the
Looney Tunes and
Merrie Melodies series of theatrical shorts produced by
Warner Bros. during the
Golden Age of American animation.
[1] His popularity during this era led to his becoming a corporate
mascot of the Warner Bros. company. Bugs is an
anthropomorphic gray
hare or rabbit and is famous for his flippant,
insouciant personality, a pronounced
New York accent, his portrayal as a
trickster,
and his catch phrase "Eh... What's up, doc?" (usually said while
chewing a carrot). Bugs has appeared in more films than any other
cartoon
character and is the ninth most portrayed film personality in the world.

According to his 1990 "autobiography"
Bugs Bunny: 50 Years and Only One Grey Hare, Bugs was born on July 27, 1940 in
Brooklyn, New York in a warren under
Ebbets Field, home of the
Brooklyn Dodgers.
[3] In reality, he was brought to life by the animators and staff of
Leon Schlesinger Productions (later
Warner Bros. Cartoons): including
Tex Avery, who directed Bugs' debut short
A Wild Hare (1940);
Robert McKimson, who created Bugs' definitive character design; and
Mel Blanc, who originated the
voice of Bugs.
