The episode begins with Squidward making a [[Roast à la Squidward|vegetable version of himself]]. However, he forgot the parsley, so he goes to get some from his backyard. When he tries to take it out, he ends up getting pulled underground by a bunny. Meanwhile, Squidward's meal gets burned due to sitting in the oven for too long. This makes Squidward want to get rid of the bunny.
[[File:Bunny Hunt 024.png|thumb|200px|Squidward's house burns.]]
After failing to attack the bunny, Squidward hides in a large carrot so he can call animal control so they can take the bunny. They come, but SpongeBob prevents them from taking the bunny and decides to raise it himself.
SpongeBob brings the bunny to his house and tries to feed it. However, since the bunny only wants vegetables, SpongeBob goes to the [[Barg'N-Mart]] to get something. While he is there, the bunny starts looking for food, only to make a mess in SpongeBob's living room. SpongeBob puts hot sauce everywhere to prevent the sea bunny from doing this again, but the bunny eats the hot sauce and causes fires around the room. Thankfully, SpongeBob stops the fires and prevents the bunny from burning anything else.
Later, SpongeBob tries to have the bunny live in a cage, but he does not want to live in it and hides underneath the wallpaper of the walls. Afterwards, SpongeBob finds Patrick in his couch and asks him to get the bunny out, but he gets stuck in the wallpaper. SpongeBob decides to get a girl bunny from the store for the bunny to fall in love with, and this succeeds.
When the two sea bunnies go into the laundry basket, they start to multiply. SpongeBob and Patrick chase the bunnies until they end up reaching Squidward's house. The house gets completely flooded by bunnies, until the house itself gets destroyed and the bunnies form a look-alike house out of themselves. The episode ends with Squidward losing his sanity and turning into a bunny as the animal control officer tries to capture him, while one of the bunnies turns into Squidward and plays his clarinet.

|timedate = *After "[[Help Wanted]]" and "[[Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy]]"
*This episode was paired up with a rerun of "[[Moving Bubble Bass]]" during the episode's original American airing, but since it has re-airing with "[[Sanitation Insanity]]."
}}
*In the real world, sea bunnies are a species of sea slug scientifically named ''{{W|Jorunna parva}}''. They live in the Indian Ocean and in {{W|Papua New Guinea}}.
*This episode aired in Iberia and Turkey on {{Time|March 21}}, {{Time|2018}}.
**A realistically-drawn sea bunny appears in the title card.
*The part at the end where Squidward goes insane is likely a reference to Ripper Roo from Crash Bandicoot, because he bounces around while wearing a straitjacket, just like Ripper Roo.
*A few clips from this and its [[Sanitation Insanity|sister episode]] were released on Nick Israel's Facebook account on {{Time|December 19}}, {{Time|2017}}<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/nicktvisrael/videos/10157188921828508/ Nickelodeon Israel on Facebook]</ref> and Instagram on January 25, 2018.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98oT0cbU2Kk Short Sanitation Insanity/Bunny Hunt Clips]</ref>
*This episode aired nine years after "[[Patty Caper]]" premiered in Australia and one year after "[[Life Insurance]]" premiered in Iberia and "[[Burst Your Bubble]]" premiered in the Netherlands.
*[[Barg'N-Mart]] is called "Grocery" in this episode. It is also revealed they sell pets.
*The shed from "[[The Curse of Bikini Bottom]]" comes back at the end where all the bunnies ambush Squidward's house.
*A villain named [[Clam Head Candy Cad]] from "[[Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy]]" makes a reappearance after nearly 19 years of absence by reappearing on a comic book cover.
*When Squidward is talking to the wooden dummy, he says "Sacré bleu!" This translates to "Damn it!" in English.
**He also says another French phrase "C'est la vie" during his garden funeral, which translates to "That's life" in English and is usually used to express acceptance of something that is disappointing or not as expected.
*Bunny Wunny can be seen playing "[[Puka]]" on his ukulele, thus [[List of fourth wall breaks|breaking the fourth wall]].
*In the real world, sea bunnies are hermaphrodites and would not need a partner to reproduce. This makes the bunnies depicted act more like actual rabbits instead.
*This is the first episode to feature [[Carlos Alazraqui]] as a voice actor since "[[Mermaid Man vs. SpongeBob]]" back in [[season 5]].

*The shed from "[[The Curse of Bikini Bottom]]" is seen again at the end when all the bunnies ambush Squidward's house.
