It’s weekend cartoon time.
Yosemite Sam was created in 1945. He was named after Yosemite National Park. Here’s Sam facing off against his old adversary Bugs Bunny in Knighty Knight Bugs (1958). This is the only Bugs Bunny cartoon to win an Academy Award for Best Animated Short.

Have a good weekend.
