Character description
Wally is a cheerful and curious individual who resides in a cage inside of Mr. Twiddle's zoo. Despite his friendly behavior, he tends to get bored of living in his habitat quick, and resorts to escaping the zoo as a means of wanting to go outside. His curiosity gets the best of Wally, however, as he occasionally bumps into humans who are either afraid of the alligator letting loose or want to use him for their personal gain. He rarely gets an upper hand in any situation, but is shown to be cunning at times. Despite his resilience, his luck turns on him to the point that he sometimes wishes to go back to the zoo. His catchphrase is "Oh, Fuddle De Doo!", which he usually says when he is either surprised or in a tough situation.
Wally is an alligator with green skin and a lighter coloring on his underbelly and snout. Although part of a predatory species, he isn't shown to have any visible teeth, but is sometimes seen cracking a smile of flat pearly whites. In Jellystone!, he instead, has a set of sharp fangs. Wally's attire consists of a collar, shirt cuffs, and a purple pork pie hat.
Wally is less intelligent in the Jellystone! reboot, despite retaining a friendly demeanor like his classic counterpart.
