Euronews reports that Bauza’s family announced his death in a statement posted to his Instagram account. The same report says the Los Angeles County medical examiner identified the cause of death as hypertensive cardiovascular disease.
Bauza’s best-known work included the voices of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck. Euronews also reports that his characters included Road Runner and Porky Pig, among others.
His work extended across television and film. The Hollywood Reporter lists roles in “Coyote vs. Acme,” “Forgotten Island,” “Muppet Babies” and “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” while BBC News reports that he voiced multiple characters in “Coyote vs. Acme.”
The reports portray Bauza as a prominent modern performer of globally recognized animated characters. His death was reported consistently by The Hollywood Reporter, BBC News and Euronews, with the family announcement and medical-examiner finding attributed in the Euronews account.
