Snarl

n a rare turn as a puppet builder since the days of Sam and Friends, Jim Henson snipped the puppet out of a block of foam with scissors in only a few hours.[1][2] Snarl was reused intermittently in the early 1970s, most notably in the special Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass; as the object of affection of a lovelorn Beautiful Day Monster, who sings "Five Minutes More." The puppet can also be glimpsed in brief appearances in The Muppet Show: S*x and Violence and the Muppet Meeting Film "Just a Few Announcements." In 1976, the puppet rose from the ranks and became a character in his own right.
