Bam is ajockdeervillager in theAnimal Crossing series. He first appeared inAnimal Crossing: New Leaf and has appeared in all subsequent games. He is the only jock deer in the series. His name may be derived fromBambi, a male deer who is the main character of the novelBambi, a Life in the Woods and itsfilm adaptation. His name is also onomatopoeia for an abrupt loud noise, as are his various catchphrases.

InNew Horizons, Bam has the playhobby and can run around with his arms extended at any time, rather than only outside Resident Services during a scripted activity with a group of villagers.
