==Biography==
Bionic Bunny's origin story varies. In [[D.W. the Copycat|''D.W. the Copycat'']]'','' a Bionic Bunny Show episode claims he was "created by a combination of super science and radical animal husbandry to fight crime". The images suggest that Bionic Bunny is a cyborg who may have begun life as a nonanthropomorphic rabbit. An episode in [[Buster's Back|''Buster's Back'']] shows his bionic parts being constructed and fitted into his body.
 
According to the ''Bionic Bunny Tenth Anniversary Special'' that is mentioned in [[Happy Anniversary|''Happy Anniversary'']], Bionic Bunny and [[Dark Bunny]] are twins who were separated at birth. Dark Bunny was taken by an evil witch, and Bionic Bunny was taken by a robot.
