Production

Development

After Yogi Bear was getting moved from the Huckleberry Hound Show to on his own show in 1961, a recurring antagonist from the Quick Draw McGraw Show called "Snagglepuss" was borrowed and used as one of the sister segments of the Yogi Bear Show.

According to Joseph Barbera, the character was based on that of Bert Lahr, with the voice, personality and likeness being based on Lahr.
