The first was what I thought. the only Dolittle adaptation I'm familiar with is the Eddie Murphy one so I kind of raised an eyebrow at that.

[sarillia]

Well there's also the Rex Harrison version and I could see how someone familiar with that one would picture the character as white. But I'm still not seeing how it's impossible for any of his traits to show up in black people.

There's also... you know... the book. Which was written in the 1920s and set in "early Victorian England" according to Wikipedia, so I think it's not unreasonable to assume that authorial intent was for Dr. Dolittle to be white.

Not saying that that means that the OP's argument particularly holds water, though (especially because Dr. Dolittle doesn't really share other physical traits with the monster in question. Like gender. Or being a monster).

[cbrachyrhynchos]

It's worse than that, the original book is loaded with many of the stereotypes common about Africa in early 20th century literature. But the character clearly isn't Dr. Doolitle as written by Lofting.
