Elmer is a fictional cartoon character created by American animator and director, Friz Freleng. He is best known for his portrayal as a hunter of bugs, particularly the 'wascally wabbit' Bugs Bunny. Elmer is often depicted as a bumbling yet enthusiastic hunter, often failing to catch his prey. He is also known for his signature catchphrase, 'Be vewy vewy quiet, I'm hunting wabbits!' Elmer is a pursuer of bugs, making him an apt crossword solution for the term 'Pursuer of Bugs'.
