* ArtisticLicenseOrnithology: Putting aside the fact that Killer is obviously a vulture and “Buzzard” is less of an accurate name than [[AlliterativeAppeal an alliterative one]] given his future name, vultures generally only scavenge for dead animal carcasses (hence the bald head), and unless the prey is wounded or sick, will rarely hunt for and resort to killing live animals. Of course, with Hays Code censorship, the story wouldn’t happen in any way like RealLife, but you really have to wonder what Mama Buzzard was thinking sending the obviously dopey Killer out to get food using a skill that vultures would not be the most adept at practicing.

* IHaveManyNames: Beaky Buzzard is referred to solely as "Killer" by his mother throughout this short. Allegedly his name was undecided until later shorts, he was generally known as "the Snerd Bird" to most of the creative team.

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Killer is based on ventriloquist Edgar Bergen's character Mortimer Snerd.

"Bugs Bunny Gets The Boid" is a [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1942]] [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Merrie Melodies]] cartoon, directed by Creator/BobClampett, and starring WesternAnimation/BugsBunny.

!!Tropes:

* WholesomeCrossdresser: Bugs, as demonstrated on the page image.

* BreakingTheFourthWall: When Bugs thinks his body is reduced to a skeleton and breaks down, only to reveal to his audience that he's just putting on a sham.

* StockFootage: The opening of this cartoon was recycled for the opening of another Killer / Beaky the Buzzard short, "The Bashful Buzzard."

* AwwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Despite Mama Buzzard's vented annoyance with Killer, [[MamaBear she instantly swoops in when Bugs has presumably reduced him to bones.]]

* DesertSkull: Bugs falls into a hole next to some cow bones, and he briefly thinks the bones are his. Later, he tricks Killer into thinking the same.
* FriendlyEnemy: Given how meek an opposition Killer is, Bugs' disposal of him is far more playful than usual, even putting an end to his prank when he thinks he's risked traumatising him and Mama Buzzard.

The short begins in a faraway wasteland, with a Mother Buzzard sending off her quadruplets to get some food for them--save one, the dimwitted Killer (aka. Beaky Buzzard), voiced by Kent Rogers. After being booted away from the nest, he treks off to bring home a rabbit for his ma--and promptly discovers a rabbit hole, housing the ever so nomadic BugsBunny. Bugs promply matches wits with the buzzard, resulting in much [[HilarityEnsues Hilarity Ensuing.]]

This short is one of Literature/The100GreatestLooneyTunes. It is also a runner-up on The50GreatestCartoons.
