Br'er Rabbit

Br'er Rabbit is a comical Disney character who first appeared in the 1946 film Song of the South which inspired Splash Mountain where he is also featured. Dispite Song of the South's unavalibilty on VHS, DVD and Blu-Ray in the USA, Brer Rabbit and his nemeses, Brer Fox and Brer Bear are popular fixtures at the Disney parks. He was voiced by Johnny Lee in the first two animated segments and James Baskett in the last segment. Jess Harnell voices him in House of Mouse and on Splash Mountain.

Like Br'er Fox and Br'er Bear, Br'er Rabbit speaks in a Deep South accent, complete with much of their dialect and quirks of speech, and wears stereotypical lower-class African-American clothing of the time. He is portrayed as being something of a scallywag, and is not quite as clever as he thinks he is, which is the reason for him getting trapped in the first place - but he's still quite smart enough to outwit Br'er Fox and Br'er Bear.

Song of the South
In the film Uncle Remus tell tales of Brer Rabbit and his enemies Brer Fox and Brer Bear. Brer Rabbit lives out most of his roles in the story book. In one of the stories Brer Fox and Brer Bear attempt to use the Tar Baby to capture and eat Brer Rabbit. Brer Rabbits gets stuck inside, but eventually escapes by Brer Fox throwing him into a briar patch which ends in particuler results. In a segment Brer Rabbit is captured by Brer Fox and nearly eaten until he tricks Brer Fox and Brer Bear into taking him to his laughing place.
