Dr. Seuss helped create the series and contributed the often-rhyming dialogue to a number of the cartoons. In one such episode, “Booby Traps,” you see an Elmer Fudd look-a-like, voiced by the famous Mel Blanc, encountering not only an amply-endowed female nemesis, but also a larger than life mousetrap, not unlike the one featured in the Dr. Seuss print titled, Booby Trap.
