Bullwinkle

Bullwinkle J. Moose is an anthropomorphic fictional moose character from two popular 1959-1964 animated television series collectively known as The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show. Because of Bullwinkle's popularity, they changed it to The Bullwinkle Show.

Jay Ward and his assistant Alex Anderson created Bullwinkle for The Frostbite Falls Review, a storyboard idea which was never developed into a series. They gave him the name "Bullwinkle" after Clarence Bullwinkel, a car dealer, because they thought it was a funny name. Both Bullwinkle and Rocky were given the middle initial "J" in reference to Ward.

Bullwinkle shares a home with his best friend Rocket J. Squirrel (Rocky) in the fictional small town of Frostbite Falls, Minnesota, a parody of the real-life American town of International Falls, Minnesota. Bullwinkle's college alma mater was "Wossamotta U."
