Quotes from Bambi:
Friend Owl:
I was talking to myself about you the other day, we were wondering what became of you.
[repeated line]
Friend Owl: [everytime he is woken up] Oh, what now?
Friend Owl: Same thing every spring. "Tweet-tweet, tweet-tweet! Tweet-tweet, tweet-tweet!" Love's sweet song. Hm! Pain in the pinfeathers, I call it!

Facts about Bambi:
Some scenes of woodland creatures and the forest fire are unused footage from Pinocchio.
In the original script Bambi was shot instead of his mother, but Walt Disney dismissed the idea and moved the shooting to Bambi's mother.
Animation from this film has been reused more often than animation from any other Disney film. Usually it is used as incidental animation of birds, leaves and the like. Only a few of the major characters have been reused. Bambi's mother, for example, appears in the very first shot of Beauty and the Beast, and is the quarry of both Kay in The Sword in the Stone and Shere Khan in The Jungle Book. Bambi and his mother fully appear then in The Rescuers.
