Rabbit's Feat is an animated 1960 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon, directed by Chuck Jones and written by Michael Maltese. The short was released on June 4, 1960, and stars Bugs Bunny and Wile E. Coyote. As Maltese had left for Hanna-Barbera, his name was removed from the credits.

Plot

Wile E. Coyote introduces himself as a hunting genius in pursuit of the Western rabbit, strategically setting up a picnic to lure Bugs Bunny. Upon capturing Bugs, Wile E. prepares to cook him, but Bugs cleverly feigns distress from behind a rock, leading to comedic confrontation. Wile E.'s subsequent attempts to exterminate Bugs are comically foiled, including failed rifle shots and a misguided plan to use dynamite in a carrot. Bugs ingeniously turns the tables on Wile E., causing him to suffer the consequences of his own schemes.
Ultimately, defeated and battered, Wile E. concedes defeat, adopting a new vegetarian lifestyle and seeking medical help.
