Butty Wopscutt was a tubby corporal and hare in charge of supplies and provisions in the Long Patrol. He was kind to all and a good friend of Tam and Doogy. When the shrews were moving a willow that was blocking the river that Tam and the Guosim were traveling on, Gulo the Savage attacked Tam and the hares standing guard against them. Butty was killed by a wound from Gulo, who had attacked his back, and multiple other wounds from the horde.
