Sniffiles

Sniffiles Current Design (2017)

## Character Info

A grey-blue anteater who is one of the most intelligent characters in the series. He is the second character introduced without a heart-shaped nose and a pair of buckteeth (the other being Lunder). He usually likes doing and reading science and math problems. To reinforce the 'nerd' image that Sniffles exudes, he is seen dressed up as Spock, a Star Trek character (the Vulcan ears being the giveaway), in *Remains to be Seen* and *Something Fishy*. He also sports a pair of glasses that are taped at the bridge and a pocket protector on his chest, even though he wears no clothes.

His mouth and nose are combined to make a trunk-like snout, with his lips at the tip. It used to be long in the earlier Internet episodes, but starting with the TV series, it became much shorter. The reason for this was to add additional cuteness to his appearance. Furthermore, although already depicted as such when he is facing the front, first seen in *Wrath of Con.* Episodes such as *Wrath of Con* and *I've Got You Under My Skin* reveal that his ears sometimes move to match how he feels, like Truffels' ears.

## Character Bio

Sniffles' IQ has been proven to be extremely high in both the internet and the TV series. He has built things that are far more advanced than most of the other characters (ex. a rocket from a school bus, and even a time machine). Most of the times, however, these devices malfunction and work against him, leading to the deaths of others. This is the reason why he has the fourth highest kill count in the series with over a hundred kills (with Pop, Lunder, and Condor having more). Like Truffels, he has a wide range of deaths. He has also had a multitude of jobs, including a doctor and a pilot. In addition, he is sometimes shown to be a bit of a mad scientist (as shown in his Smoochie), mixing fluids that end up causing his death. He usually says "*Ah Ha!*" when he gets an idea for an invention.

Despite the fact that the majority of fans consider Sniffles one of if not the smartest Happy Tree Friends characters due to his nerdy character design and inventing abilities as can be clearly seen here, some fans consider his intelligence level to be very low due to his lack of common sense and poor planning skills. One example of this is *I've Got You Under My Skin*, in which Sniffles puts a timer on his shrinking submarine that determines how long he can stay microscopic despite that it was designed to go inside Giggles' and as the timer winds down, he makes no attempt to turn it back and give himself more time.

He has a MySpace account which shows that his idols are Albert Einstein, Spock, William Shatner, and Splendid. Sniffles is the second character to idolize Splendid (the first being Toothy); this is further evidenced in *Suck It Up* and *A Sight for Sore Eyes*. He is best friends with Nutty, as can be seen in *From Hero to Eternity*, *Random Acts of Silence*, and *All Work and No Play*. He is also friends with Giggles, as can be seen in *Boo Do You Think You Are?*, *Happy Trails Pt. 2: Jumping the Shark*, *I've Got You Under My Skin*, *Every Litter Bit Hurts*, and *Idol Curiosity*. He has also been seen with Lumpy in *In a Jam*, *I've Got You Under My Skin*, *See What Develops*, *Take a Hike*, *From A to Zoo*, *Class Act*, *A Hole Lotta Love*, and *Blast from the Past*.

Sniffles' home appears to be a lab, as can be seen in *I've Got You Under My Skin*, *Blast from the Past*, *A Sight for Sore Eyes*, *Suck It Up*, *Tongue in Cheek*, and *Pet Peeve*.

According to the "Collect Them All" section of the *First Blood* DVD, Sniffles has a few allergies and loves calculating long division problems.

Sniffiles Also has a craving for Ants witch is one of his animal insticts, but every time he attempts to eat one, most of the time, it ends in the matter that sniffiles eat or kills 4/5 and then gets killed by the last one, however the ant always ends up killing themselfs too!
