Rabbit is one of the two real name animals in Winnie the Pooh, the other being Owl. Rabbit is different from the rest of the animals in the sense that his name is that of a real animal. Pooh, Piglet and Eeyore are the original stuff toys that belonged to Christopher Robin. As the story of Winnie the Pooh advanced and expanded, the Author A.A. Milne felt the need to fill in more characters and hence the introduction of Rabbit.
Rabbit happens to be one of the two animals in the 100 Acre Wood who has a brain and he highlights this fact when he in a conversation with Owl comments “You and I have brains. The others have fluff”. For this very reason he counts himself to be an important member of the 100 Acre Wood. He also comes across as a responsible rabbit and is a good friend of Winnie the Pooh. He is always practical in all matters and keeps his friends on the go; at times the other characters unintentionally raise his ire. Rabbit likes to organise things, write notices signed Rabbit and see what everybody else think about them. He also likes to take charge of group events, even if nothing gets done. He is probably the smartest amongst all his other animal friends in the forest (that’s his personal opinion), and he is mostly the self-appointed leaders of the entire group. Rabbit at times comes across as being stubborn when it comes to his viewpoints. He also tends to overreact in haste but all of his friends are aware that beneath his slightly bristly exterior lies a good heart. Once he realizes his mistake, he has the ability to admit that he was wrong.
Turtle is a close friend of Porcupine voiced by Mark Hamill. He lives life slow, and enjoys playing checkers with his friends.
