Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
A young seven-year-old girl named Alice sees the White Rabbit while sitting on a riverbank with her older sister. She curiously ran after him, and ended up seeing him jump down his rabbit hole underneath a hedge. Alice crawls into the hole after him and suddenly found herself falling and falling down what seemed to be a very deep hole. While Alice fell, she saw several cupboards and bookshelves in the hole and other things, like books and a glass jar that was labeled "ORANGE MARMALADE", which unfortunately was empty. Alice continues to pursue the White Rabbit, however, and the two meet again at the croquet tournament in Chapter Eight. It is here that he's revealed to be a herald of the King and Queen of Hearts.

He is voiced by Ernest Milton, who also portrays the live-action Vice Chancellor, of whom the Rabbit is the Wonderland counterpart.

He is a sycophant who will do anything to advance himself. The White Rabbit sings a song called "Play the Game", about saying what the Queen wants to hear in order to flatter and gain favor with her.
