The Grasshopper is a character that was originally created for the 1942 Disney animated feature film Bambi, but deleted during the film's production.
Development[]
Originally, the grasshopper was going to appear in a scene where he was quarreling with Bambi and Thumper and where he was in a predicament with an army of ants. However, because his role seemed foreign and it was taking away focus from Bambi, he was cut from the final version of the film along with the ants. Despite this, there was dialogue written for the grasshopper and some rough sketches for the character.[1]
