Bugs Bunny's Thanksgiving Diet
Bugs Bunny's Thanksgiving Diet was an animated television special released on November 15, 1979; it starred Bugs Bunny and incorporated parts of several Looney Tunes cartoons. The special followed up on the successful Looney Tunes special Bugs and Daffy's Carnival of the Animals that had aired in 1976, which reintroduced the character of Bugs Bunny in his first new material since 1964. The female rabbit from this special was rumored to be Honey Bunny, but is in fact a variation of Witch Hazel's rabbit form.
