Maybe that's a variation on Potrzebie? Or Basil Wolverton's Gjdrkzlxcbwq? Actually, I bet it's an original Walt Kelly creation, like his playing with typography and letter styles to color the personalities of certain characters. Who knows that a cranky wild creature doesn't sound like that?
As I'm sure you know, that's just the way Grundoon, the little groundhog, talks--cuz he doesn't actually talk. He may be cranky from all the attention, but he's not wild.
