Cub/Trivia

==General Trivia==
*Cub is how people like to call a baby bear or younglings of large cats (tigers or lions), which is the reason behind his name.
*In the internet shorts, there are a few episodes where Cub is not with Pop. However, in the TV series, Pop and Cub are always together.
*On Cub's "Collect Them All" card, he is said to be lactose intolerant. This might be false, since Cub drank milk with no problem in Bottled Up Inside. The formula could have been soy or another substitute, but given Pop's track record, this is unlikely.
*Cub can be seen without his beanie in Snip Snip Hooray!, Water Way to Go, Hello Dolly, As You Wish, A Hole Lotta Love, and Every Litter Bit Hurts.
*Despite the fact that he rarely survives, his survival rate in both seasons four and five are very high considering how he appears in three episodes in both seasons and dies in only one each.
*Cub is usually considered the physically weakest main character, mainly because of very young age and childish behavior.
*Cub appears in Treasure Those Idol Moments, Rink Hijinks, Let It Slide, It's a Snap, I Get a Trick Out of You, Kringle Feast, and Kringle Presents without Pop. Pop only appears without Cub in Something Fishy (unless Cub was sitting in his lap) and in Tunnel Vision.
*Cub cries in Stealing the Spotlight, And the Kitchen Sink, As You Wish, A Sucker for Love Part 1, A Sucker for Love Part 2, Cubtron Z, You're Kraken Me Up, Spare Tire (sort of), and A Handy Nanny.
*Cub is the 7th character to come back to life after dying in an episode, as he died in Havin' A Ball and appeared later in Treasure Those Idol Moments.
**Sniffles and Toothy also died before appearing again in Treasure Those Idol Moments, but Cub is counted as the seventh since he was the last of the three characters to physically appear.
*According to the episodes Snip Snip Hooray! and Easy Comb, Easy Go, he has auburn hair.
*Similar to Handy and Sniffles, Cub doesn't seem to mind (or even notice) if other characters die or get injured, or even if something is about to happen to him.
**In Havin' A Ball, he doesn't seem to notice that Pop had been killed despite seeing his remains.
**In Rink Hijinks, he tears Lumpy's heart out and hugs it, thinking it's a toy from a claw machine.
**In Don't Yank My Chain, he laughs when Handy is being dragged along by a train.
**In Concrete Solution, he doesn't seem to notice that a bridge above him is collapsing (Pop, however, was also oblivious).
**In Who's to Flame?, he doesn't seem to notice that Sniffles had been killed.
**In A Hole Lotta Love, he smiles and laughs when he is about to be crushed by the drill machine.
**In Wingin' It, he laughs as he's being sucked out of a plane.
**In Just Desert, he picks Lumpy's skull up and holds it to his ear like a seashell.
**In You're Kraken Me Up, he only seems curious when Petunia's severed head lands next to him.
**In A Vicious Cycle, he isn't shocked or confused by Disco Bear's death he just stares at his head blankly.
**In A Handy Nanny, he points and laughs at Handy's eye injury.
***This may be because Cub is a baby and doesn't understand death.
***However in Can't Stop Coffin, he's seen mourning his mother's death.
*Unlike most other characters, he is rarely shown playing with other characters (the obvious exception being Pop and sometimes the body parts of a dead Lumpy).
*Besides Pop, Cub is most often seen with Lumpy and Petunia.
*The grave that Pop and Cub visited in the episode Can't Stop Coffin is likely the grave of Cub's mother, as it has been confirmed that she's dead.
*The first time he appeared without Pop was in Treasure Those Idol Moments.
*Cub's voice actress was changed when Ellen Connell moved and was unable to voice Giggles, Petunia, and Cub. However, in Clause For Concern, she voiced Cub.
**Interestingly enough, he shares the same voice actresses as Giggles and Petunia.
*In Season 3, his alliterate sentence is: Cute kids are cuddly and carefree!
*Cub and Pop are the only duo characters that aren't always seen together. This is unless one counts games, as in Stay On Target, Lammy appears without Mr. Pickels.
*Pop and Cub's Season 3 featuring card is somewhat similar to their TV series starring card.
**Also, their Season 2 starring card is somewhat similar to their part in the opening of the TV series.
*Cub was originally going to be called "Fuzzy".
*Besides Mr. Pickels (if he is truly alive), Cub is the smallest Happy Tree Friend.
==Design==
*He is one of the only two main characters to have small black eyes, the other being Mr. Pickels. However, Sniffles used to have them under his glasses in earlier episodes.
==Episode Statistics==

**Ignoring Pop, Cub co-stars with Lumpy the most.
*Since Cub and his father are duo characters, Cub stars in every episode Pop does, even though he has very little screen time in A Hole Lotta Love and Clause For Concern. A featuring role would suit him better in these episodes.
*The only starring roles he survives are Rink Hijinks, A Vicious Cycle, and Too Much Scream Time.

*In the TV series, Cuddles appeared in all of his starring roles, besides Pop. He dies in two of the three episodes.
