Behind the scenes

  • The modern spelling of his name is Pa, having lost the play-on word factor of him being a bear who has a paw.

In popular culture

  • In the Galactica 1980 episode "The Night the Cylons Landed, Part II," Dillon and Troy go backstage at a theater where several people are in suits of Hanna-Barbera characters (Scooby-Doo, Hair Bear, Paw, Hong Kong Phooey, and Maw Rugg) dancing to the song of "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" in a forest set. Not understanding the Earth reference, Dillon is surprised to see "dancing mammals."
