Horse Hare marked the final time Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam were paired in a Western-themed cartoon Beause of Native American stereotypes this cartoon was pulled from Cartoon Networks 2001 "June Bugs"
The short itself is probably one of the last great Bugs Bunny cartoons made.
The plot has Bugs Bunny put in charge of defending an Old West fort from Yosemite Sam and a group of Indians. Bugs does what he usually does to Sam. Once again, Yosemite Sams loose-cannon personality leads to his downfall. This short was released on February 2, 1960 and Bugs and Sams Golden Age was winding down by this point. Within four years Warner Brothers would close their cartoon studio retiring Bugs and Sam into cartoon history.
