Appearances on the Show[]
The Elephant first appears in the Her Wacky Highness episode as a green elephant.
Then he appears in the Elephant Issues episode in the wraparounds. In the first wraparound, when Gogo mentions he is going to ponder today's relevant issues, Horton the Elephant mishears it as "Elephant Tissues" and brings Gogo a box of tissues. Gogo, who is not amused by the Elephant's tomfoolery, stuffs him in his vanity's drawer. After Gogo mentions that he is going to take a Tiny Toons look at burning issues in a fruitless attempt to win another Emmy, the Elephant opens up the drawer and brings him a box of burning tissues, which Gogo extinguishes. In the second wraparound, when Gogo mentions that getting along with other people is one of the more pressing issues of life, the Elephant brings him issues of Life Magazine, with Gogo on the cover. In the third wraparound, Gogo tells the viewers not to give into peer pressure. The Elephant has three different dares, the first two (jumping off a cliff and swallowing live porcupines,) Gogo ignores, but the third (running through the lion pit screaming, "Lunchtime", while wearing cold cuts), Gogo is unable to resist.
Horton The Elephant makes a brief cameo appearance in the episode, Washingtoon, where he witnesses Gogo's tooniness being taken away by the Adults Against Funny Cartoons Chairperson's Toon Logic Extractor machine.
Horton The Elephant makes one last appearance in the Night Ghoulery episode segment, Night of the Living Dull where he, along with Gogo, Sphinx, Pen Pal, Private Eye, and a Plunger hide out in a haunted mansion to escape from dull people.
The Elephant attends Acme Looniversity along with other fellow toonsters and can be seen in various episodes of the show, particularly in the Season 3 episode, Music Day, as one of the students.
