'''Cecil Turtle''' is a fictional character in the [[Warner Bros.]] ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' and ''[[Merrie Melodies]]'' series of films. Though he made only three theatrical appearances, Cecil has the unusual distinction that he is one of the very few characters who were able to outsmart [[Bugs Bunny]], and the only one to do so three times in a row and at the rabbit's own game.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Rovin |first1=Jeff |title=The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Cartoon Animals |date=1991 |publisher=Prentice Hall Press |isbn=0-13-275561-0 |access-date=8 April 2020 |url=https://archive.org/details/illustratedencyc00rovi |url-access=registration |page=[https://archive.org/details/illustratedencyc00rovi/page/48 48]}}</ref> Cecil often gives Bugs the taunting nickname of "Speedy" when addressing the rabbit.
