Hare Ribbin' is a 1944 animated short film in the Merrie Melodies series, directed by Robert Clampett and featuring Bugs Bunny.
[1] The plot features Bugs' conflict with a red-haired hound dog, whom the rabbit sets out to evade and make a fool of using one-liners, reverse psychology, disguises and other tricks.
[3] Hare Ribbin', known for its two controversial endings, presents the Russian Dog character grappling with guilt over Bugs Bunny's apparent demise.
The "director's cut" ending depicts Bugs pulling out a gun and shooting the dog through the mouth,[3] a version never shown theatrically or on television until its release on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 5 DVD set.
Additional scenes in the director's cut include an extended search for Bugs by the dog, and an enhanced sequence of them playing tag.
