Sahara Hare is a 1955 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes theatrical cartoon short directed by Friz Freleng. [1] The short was released on March 26, 1955, and stars Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. [2]
Bugs Bunny mistakenly believes he has reached Miami Beach in the Sahara Desert. Equipped with beach gear, he encounters Yosemite Sam, who mistakes Bugs for a trespasser and gives chase. Bugs outwits Sam at every turn, leading to comical confrontations. Eventually, Bugs traps Sam in a fort, where Sam faces a series of humiliating defeats.
In the end, Bugs sets a trap for Sam, causing an explosion. Daffy Duck then emerges from a hole, similarly mistaken about his location. Bugs lets Daffy discover the truth on his own.
Scenes from Sahara Hare were recycled in later Merrie Melodies cartoons like Hare-Abian Nights (1959) and Devil's Feud Cake (1963), as well as in "Act 1" of The Looney Looney Looney Bugs Bunny Movie (1981). Additionally, it introduced Milt Franklyn's rendition of "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down", which remained in use until 1964.
