In the Looney Tunes cartoon, the Wild Man of Borneo is portrayed as a comically exaggerated creature with wild hair and a primitive appearance, embodying the trope of the untamed and uncontrollable. His "wildness" is highlighted through his erratic behavior, such as his antics and misunderstandings with the more civilized characters. The cartoon plays on the juxtaposition between the Wild Man's chaotic nature and the more refined characters, creating humor through absurdity and slapstick comedy. This satirical depiction reflects societal views of the 'wild' versus the 'civilized' in a lighthearted manner.
