  • Horton the Elephant is an elephant character from The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss. Horton appeared in most episodes of the show playing a side, background or even a leading character. He was voiced by John Kennedy throughout the series. He is the father of Morton and the brother of Thidwick.
  • Horton the Elephant is the kind-hearted elephant character who first appeared in the 1940 book, Horton Hatches the Egg. He also appears in Horton Hears A Who! and Seussical the Musical.
  • Horton the Elephant was a recurring character on The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss. In each of his book appearances, Horton endures a good amount of ridicule for believing in something that no one else does. He also received criticism from characters in the show. In The Guest, Horton is the hotel manager.
  • Horton is also a character on the TV series The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss. Kent Rogers voiced the character in "Horton Hatches the Egg". He is also a principal character in Seussical the Musical, which uses most of the two Horton books as its primary plotline. Horton is voiced by Jim Carrey in the computer-animated adaptation of Horton Hears A Who, where he is shown as being eccentric and imaginative, and sort of absent-minded.
  • Horton the Elephant, or just Horton, is the main protagonist in two of Dr. Seuss' books, Horton Hatches the Egg & Horton Hears a Who, as well as in the feature length play Seussical the Musical. In the animated film based on the second book, he is voiced by Jim Carrey. Horton is a big elephant with a simple mind but a heart of gold. In both stories, he selflessly protects a thing that seems meaningless to other animals (an egg and a speck that countains a very small world) and is cruelly mocked. He ignores them, and gets rewarded in the end of his torments.
