Bounty Bunny is a 2021 Looney Tunes Cartoons short directed by Ryan Kramer.

Plot[]

Yosemite Sam goes on a hunt for a wanted criminal rabbit who looks like Bugs in order to get the $5000 cash reward which Sam refers to as "5000 smackeroos" for it's capture. He meets Bugs and assumes that he would be the "Wanted Rabbit" he is looking for. After a brief chase, Sam catches Bugs but he starts to causing problems to him while talking him to the police station; first by getting rid of Sam's motorbike and breaking out of the cage holding him, and then by tricking him into entering to the backside of a pound van full of dogs when they ask thd driver to take them to the police station.

After that, an enraged Sam takes Bugs in to the sheriff, hoping to get the $5000 cash reward, but it turns out that Sam was too late since the actual "Wanted Rabbit", a big grey rabbit resembling a more muscular version of Bugs but with three whiskers, has already turned himself in a couple of hours ago. Bugs tells Sam that, by mistaking him with the "Wanted Rabbit", he has unknowingly committed the crime of attempted kidnapping the whole time, and as the result, Sam gets arrested by the sheriff for it and gets locked up in the same jail cell as the "Wanted Rabbit", where the "Wanted Rabbit" proceeds to literally give Sam his "5000 smackeroos" - by repetitively slapping Sam in the face 5000 times!

Notes[]

  • The ending where it is revealed that Yosemite Sam mistook Bugs for the actual "Wanted Rabbit" with a similar face but with three whiskers instead of Bugs' two whiskers is a joke on the fact that Bugs originally had three whiskers on his face in the 1940s cartoons before being drawn with two whiskers as of the 1950s.
