"Devil May Hare" is a 1954 Looney Tunes cartoon short directed by Robert McKimson and starring Bugs Bunny and the Tasmanian Devil, with the latter in his debut role.One day, while doing spring cleaning, Bugs sees a stampede of animals racing past his burrow. After learning from a terrified turtle that the Tasmanian Devil is on a rampage, Bugs looks it up in the dictionary to learn that it is a strong, murderous beast with powerful jaws and a ravenous appetite for anything...and while he was reading, it has snuck up behind him! The fast talking rabbit manages to convince the brute that he's too skinny for a meal and offers to help set him up with a menagerie...with every one of Bugs supposed menu items resulting in Taz suffering humiliating and painful moments. When the devil sees through Bugs' tricks and pursues the rabbit, Bugs is required to use a surprising ace up his sleeve in order to make everyone happy.Edited into 1979's Bugs Bunny's Valentine (a.k.a. Bugs Bunny's Cupid Capers), primarily to use the ending as evidence that Bugs Bunny is a better matchmaker than Cupid himself. | |

Right Behind Me | |
Devil May Hare / int_170128e9 | comment |
Right Behind Me: When a little fawn shows up, Bugs tries to get it to run before Taz gets it, saying "He's a mean, vicious, nasty, no-good, baggy-eyed, marble-headed ignoramorous! He's a stupid...", only to trail off when he realizes that Taz is behind him. | |

Devil May Hare / int_17a45ff5 | comment |
Misplaced Wildlife: Almost all of the animals listed as the Tasmanian Devil's prey are not even native to Tasmania. And then there's the Animal Stampede consisting of several species from different continents. | |

The Cameo | |
Devil May Hare / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: In trying to figure out why the animals are stampeding, Bugs tries to ask around to random animals, but they all ignore him. He finally blocks the path of a turtle to get an explanation. Said turtle bears a striking resemblance to the early, short-lived Looney Tunes character Cecil Turtle. | |

Bubblegum Popping | |
Devil May Hare / int_3bc27275 | comment |
Bubblegum Popping: Bugs feeds the Tasmanian Devil a chicken made from gum and baking soda. The baking soda gives Taz hiccups, and every time he hiccups the bubble gets bigger until Bugs blows it away, dragging Taz away with it. It floats until Bugs hits it with a slingshot and it bursts, leaving Taz hanging from the trees. | |

Tranquil Fury: "What for you bury me in the cold, cold ground?" Coolly said by Taz right before he prepares to attack Bugs for burying him. Taz goes into this again when Bugs tries to get a fawn to flee and insults him in the process. | |

Pragmatic Villainy: As noted above, Taz is initially convinced not to eat Bugs since he’s very skinny and would not make a filling meal. However, as Bugs puts him through more and more tricks, Taz stops caring and begins trying to eat him in earnest. | |
