Bugs Bunny first appeared in the cartoon short Porky's Hare Hunt, first released on April 30, 1938. The short was co-directed by Cal Dalton and Joseph Benson Hardaway, the latter better known as Ben Hardaway and nick-named "Bugs". The cartoon had an almost identical theme to an early cartoon Porky's Duck Hunt, first released on July 7,1937, directed by Tex Avery and introducing Daffy Duck. Following this earlier film, the short cast Porky Pig as a hunter against an equally nutty prey, who was more interested in driving his hunter insane than running away. But instead of a black duck, his current prey was a tiny, white rabbit. This unnamed new character, with Mel Blanc already acting as his voice actor, would hardly be recognizable to today's audiences. And his introductory words were "Jiggers, fellers!" Perhaps more characteristically he quoted Groucho Marx in saying "Of course, you know, this means war." Porky was the first of Bugs' opponents to end up hospitalized. This rabbit was known as "Bugs' Bunny", as it had been Bugs Hardaway who came up with the rabbit and drew his model sheet; "Bugs Bunny" (with no possessive apostrophe) as the formal name of the character would not come until 1940.
Bugs's real name (according to a comic book) is George Washington Bunny.

Bugs Bunny began in a film directed by Ben "Bugs" Hardaway, in a black and white Looney Tunes Porky Pig film entitled "Porky's Hare Hunt". In this cartoon, the character was not exactly Bugs Bunny, he was short, simply drawn, white, and acted like a cross between Daffy Duck and Woody Woodpecker (It is said that Hardaway and vocal genius Mel Blanc can also be attributed to Woody's creation for Walter Lantz a few years later.) Porky Pig goes hunting with his dog, zero, and takes a beating from his prey in a situation much like the earlier Tex Avery effort "Porky's Duck Hunt"(1937), the film that introduced Daffy Duck. This rabbit can pull himself out of a hat, fly with his ears and bounce on his head, and he finally puts Porky in the hospital. Hardaway and Chuck Jones would continue to use this character, though slightly redesigned, in a series of color Merrie Melodies over the next two years, including the manic "Hare-Um Scare-Um" and "Presto Change-O". Most importantly, with the exception of "Presto", Bugs was turned into a gray rabbit with a more expressive face, but he was still not quite Bugs. In fact, some argue that this rabbit is only Bugs because of his name, derived from a model sheet calling him "Bugs' Bunny", with the apostrophe removed. Below: The rabbit from "Porky's Hare Hunt"
