Wally Gator

Wally Gator (voiced by Daws Butler impersonating Ed Wynn) is an anthropomorphic Cajun alligator who made his debut in 1962.
==Bio==
He is more comfortable when he is at home in the city zoo, but makes many unsuccessful attempts at escaping his enclosure. In the Cartoon Network Shorties short titled "Wally Gator: Alligator Liberation" he is forced out of his enclosure by agitated animal rights people and is taken to his "natural habitat" where he encounters actual alligators who offer him bugs to eat, but the frightened alligator declines the offer because he states he eats things "that have evolved". When the animal rights people tell Wally how happy he'll be in the wild since he was out of the zoo, he begins to picture how relaxed he was as he was served chocolate balls, drinks, a television to watch, and plenty of food to eat while the animal rights people described it as a boring, unfulfilling experience for him unlike the real swamp he's at. 
==Characters==
Wally Gator (originally voiced by Daws Butler) is the titular main protagonist of the series who wants to explore the world outside his enclosure, so he makes several attempts to escape but is usually stopped by his keeper, Mr.Twiddle. 
Mr. Twiddle (voiced by Don Messick) is the zookeeper that keeps a close watch on Wally because sometimes he escapes to check out what things are like outside.
==Appearance==
Wally is an anthropomorphic alligator who wears a violet-colored Hat, white shirt cuffs and a white collar. In the Laff-A-Lympics series, he wears a red shirt with the letter "Y" on it which means that he and other Hanna Barbera characters are on Yogi Bear's team.
==Voice Actor==
He was Voiced by Daws Butler (whom also voiced characters such as Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Hokey Wolf, Quick-Draw McGraw, Snooper and Blabber Dixie, Mr. Jinks, Scooby-Dum, Reddy, Augie Doggie, Peter Potamus, Baba Looey, Lippy the Lion, Elroy Jetson and Peter Perfect) and in other Series he appeared in with the exception of Yo Yogi!, and Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law where he was voiced by Maurice LaMarche. And he's been voiced by Jeff Bergman since 1999 and in the 2021 series Jellystone!
