Geocache Description:

Located near a parking area on SGL 190. Please wear blaze orange and respect all hunting seasons!

Although you can see a variety of wildlife here, the name refers to a Looney Tunes cartoon with Elmer Fudd, Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny. This first was shown as a movie short in 1953 and is one of the "hunting trilogy". As is usual, Bugs gets the best of Daffy and Elmer, Daffy gets shot a multitude of times. Here is a script excerpt:

Elmer: [after shooting a rabbit Bugs made out of snow] Good heavens! He disintegwated.
[Bugs comes down as the "angel" of the snow rabbit]
Bugs: Eh, what's up, doc? How are things down here on Earth?
Elmer: I'm sowwy, Mr. Wabbit. I hope I didn't hurt you too much when I killed you.
Daffy: Are you nuts? Why, if he's dead, then I'm a mongoose!
Bugs' Sign: Mongoose Season.
[Elmer shoots the "mongoose"]
Daffy: You're a dirty dog...
Bugs: And YOU are a dirty skunk!
Daffy: I'm a dirty skunk? I'M a dirty skunk?
[Bugs holds up a sign saying "Dirty Skunk Season" - Elmer, predictably, lets him have it]
[Elmer has shot Daffy one too many times]
Daffy Duck: Shoot me again! I enjoy it! I love the smell of burnt feathers, and gunpowder, and cordite! I'm an elk! Shoot me, go on! It's elk season! I'm a fiddler crab! Why don't you shoot me? It's fiddler crab season!

Tweezers or long nose pliers might be needed to extract the log (I needed them).
Please rehide at least as good as you found it.
I rated terrain 2.5 because of all the thorns.

Congratulations to cath20 and ollie16 for the FTF!
