The Fair-Haired Hare is a 1951 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon starring Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. Released April 14, 1951, the cartoon was directed by Friz Freleng. The voices were performed by Mel Blanc.
The Fair-Haired Hare was the first short released in which Yosemite Sam was drawn with his mouth in his red mustache for the entire film. It is also one of the few cartoons where Sam refers to Bugs by name, and is also one of the few where Sam actually attempts to save Bugs from danger.
In the film, Bugs and Sam have their respective residences located in close proximity. They argue over property rights on the land which they both claim, and they are forced to share it by a court decision. The decision also declares them to be each other's legal heirs, and Sam is ready to kill to get his inheritance.
