Bunnies are common and harmless creatures that spawn during the day time. They can not damage players.

Bunnies have 5 HP by default, but once Vile Powder is thrown onto a bunny, or if it is a Blood Moon, it becomes a Corrupt Bunny, which can do damage to players. Vile Powder is capable of affecting mutiple bunnies at the same time if they are close enough.

A bunny will hop around during the daytime and stay in place looking from side to side during the night (this, however, was changed in 1.1, so bunnies now move around in the night as well as in the day). Falling stars, falling sand or explosions, and (as of 1.1) a player can kill bunnies, goldfish, and birds. Any hostile NPC can kill them, as well as lava. A corrupt bunny can kill a regular bunny. If you kill a corrupt bunny, you have a 1/75 chance to obtain a Bunny Hood. The Corrupt Bunnies have 70 HP.

If a player obtains a Carrot in the Collectors Edition of Terraria, a pet bunny will start to follow the player. It's colour depends on the colour of the players shirt.

Bunnies tend to despawn quickly, and they are unable to open or close doors.
