Brer Bear is considered a Disney Villain, but he's not a dangerous one. His intentions might not be the purest and Brer Fox’s influence on him might not be the best, but he is too simple minded to do any harm to anyone, rabbit or human. He premiered in the 1946 movie Song of the South but it's really the ride Splash Mountain that opened in 1989 that made him really famous. He likes to meet his fans in Animal Kingdom or in Frontierland at the Magic Kingdom from time to time.
