Ferdimond De Mayne was a young hare of the Long Patrol under Lady Melesme. He and Wild Doogy Plumm originally didn't get off on the right foot, as they were always getting on each others' nerves. Sergeant Wonwill decided to have them settle the dispute with a boxing match. The two fought on heroically, losing teeth and being bruised until their eyes were swollen shut. The match ended in a tie, with Doogy and Ferdimond being friends afterwards.
