* Creator/WilliamJoyce's ''Literature/TheGuardiansOfChildhood'' has E. Aster Bunnymund, a member of an order of [[{{Harvey}} Pooka's]] that have established a series of tunnels that lie beneath much of the Earth. Bunnymund himself is a talented martial artist and swordsman and joins other figures such as Santa Claus in the Guardians team put together by the Man in the Moon. He also played a role in shaping the planet. Originally egg-shaped and in danger of becoming orbitally unstable, Bunnymund recarved the Earth to a stabler globe shape, creating the continent of Australia among other features in the process. The film version plays up the Australia creation aspect as part of his personality with HughJackman voicing him.

* ''The Easter Egg Haunt'' from ''Graveyard School'' had David Pike being warned by what is implied to be the Easter Bunny to destroy a specific egg before it hatches. As it turns out, David's brother Richie finds said egg and is intent to make it hatch. No one besides David seemed concerned about the fact that the egg was in fact ''getting bigger'' and smelled as if something died. It later hatched into a gigantic mutant rabbit with claws and razor-sharp teeth.
