Slow and steady wins the race.


The fable was adapted into a 1934 '' Silly Symphonies '' Animated Short Subject of the same name by Walt Disney Productions . The hare was named Max Hare and the tortoise was named Toby Tortoise. In 1936 , Max Hare and Toby Tortoise appeared in another '' Silly Symphonies '' cartoon called ''Toby Tortoise Returns'', in which Max and Toby are engaged in another match as fighters in a Boxing ring. It also served as the inspiration for three Bugs Bunny '' Merrie Melodies '' cartoons co-starring Cecil Turtle . Archie Comics also turned the character of the tortoise into a Sonic The Hedgehog character named Tommy Turtle .

An Animated Adaption will be made and completed in 2008 .
