Rufus is a character originating from the entrance to Bear Country in Disneyland, where he could be heard snoring from his cave along the path. He was removed when the land was changed to Critter Country, though his character became affiliated with the Country Bear Vacation Hoedown and Country Bear Christmas Special overlays of the Country Bear Jamboree.
In Disneyland's version of the attraction, Rufus can be heard snoring before guests would go down on Slippin' Falls. Then in 1992 he was replaced by Br'er Bear.
