Porky's Hare Hunt is a 1938 animated short movie directed by Ben "Bugs" Hardaway and Cal Dalton, which starred Porky Pig as a hunter whose prey is an unnamed rabbit - later to become Happy Rabbit...a forerunner to Bugs Bunny. The rabbit's hyperactive personality and laughing voice provided by Mel Blanc predated the 1940 Walter Lantz/Universal release Knock Knock which starred Andy Panda and intruduced cartoon audiences to Woody Woodpecker which was created for the Lantz studio by Hardaway after his departure from the Leon Schlesinger/Warner Brothers studio.

While Porky attempts to shoot down and procure the rabbit,he befalls to an inundation of quick-witted gags as the rabbit asks Porky: "Do you have a hunting license?" As Porky reaches for his pocket to obtain the document within sight of the hyper-hare,he suddenly snacthes it out of Pork's grasp,rips it in two and remarks:"...well you haven't got one now...hoohoohoohoohahahahah..hoo hoo hoo ha ha ha!" and makes a getaway by twisting his ears as though they were a helicopter propeller and flies away. Ultimately the rabbit wins in the end with Porky ending up in the hospital from injuries sustained in the ill-fated attempt to catch his game.
