Bunny and Claude are robbers, based on the real-life Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow and the then recent film version about the pair's life starring Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway that had been released by Warner Brothers They are a well-dressed rabbit male (Claude) and female (Bunny) who are always pulling off carrot heists, and their catch phrase is "We rob carrot patches", based on the film Bonnie and Clyde's "We rob banks". Bunny was voiced by Pat Woodell and Claude was voiced by veteran WB voice actor Mel Blanc. They both speak with pronounced Southern accents.
Bunny and Claude were always chased by a stereotypical Southern sheriff (also voiced by Mel Blanc, his voice sounded similar to Foghorn Leghorn and Yosemite Sam), whom would always pursuit them in his police cruiser, even though the gangster rabbits would always foil his plans.
