Notes[]
- This is the first Looney Tunes Cartoons short to have Elmer Fudd possess a firearm, in this case, his signature double-barrel shotgun.
- This is the third time Bugs Bunny has gained weight. The first was in "Wabbit Twouble" (1941), where he temporarily turns obese to mock the fat Elmer; the second was The Looney Tunes Show episode "Bobcats on Three!", where he gets obese from eating butter cupcakes; and the fourth was Space Jam A New Legacy, where he momentarily changes his weight to assume his "fat" form from "Wabbit Twouble" once again while enticing LeBron James into chasing him.
