Bugs Bunny and the Three Bears is a 1944 Merrie Melodies cartoon short directed by Chuck Jones and written by Tedd Pierce.

Three Bears, afflicted by hunger pangs, devise a scheme to entice Goldilocks using carrot soup as bait due to their depleted porridge supply.

Mama Bear, stirred by Bugs's flattery, momentarily suspends aggression, succumbing to infatuation and pursuing amorous overtures.

Mama Bear, seizing the opportunity, indulges in affectionate exchanges with Bugs, culminating in a flurry of unseen embraces.

The cartoon was released four months before Rogers' death in a crash during a training flight in Pensacola, Florida, while he was in the United States Navy during World War II; Stan Freberg would replace Rogers in future installments in the series.
