Yosemite Sam

Yosemite Sam is a Looney Tunes villain originally designed to be a replacement of Elmer Fudd when it became apparent that Bugs Bunny's continual defeat of the dimwitted hunter was verging on Bugs being a bully - so they went about creating a deliberately more villainious individual in the form of the explosive, bad-tempered and violent Yosemite Sam, though Yosemite Sam fared no batter against Bugs Bunny and was soon to become hopelessly tricked by the rabbit continually - as is the fate of all Looney Tunes villains..



Yosemite Sam is usually depicted as a human cowboy with a fiery temper and a hatred of rabbits - he is also very trigger-happy and will start firing his rifles at any moment, he isn't the brightest of villains though - in fact he can probably be considered extremely stupid at times and is easily tricked into humiliating and/or painful situations, like any good villain Yosemite Sam keeps coming back despite his continual failings but he doesn't seem to be any wiser for it, still falling for the same old tricks - of course this is a trait common to many cartoon villains, not just Yosemite Sam.
