business known as "Anti-Pesto," protecting people's vegetables from pests, including rabbits and keeping them in their basement. One evening, after capturing rabbits found in the garden of Lady Tottington, Wallace uses two of his latest inventions, the "Bun-Vac 6000" and "Mind Manipulation-O-Matic," to brainwash them into disliking vegetables so they can release them back into the village. All goes well until Wallace accidentally sets the Bun-Vac to "BLOW," and his brain is fused with that of a rabbit, forcing Gromit to destroy the Mind-O-Matic. The transfer appears to have worked, as the rabbit shows no interest in vegetables. They name the rabbit Hutch and place him in a cage. That night, a giant rabbit devours many people's vegetables but Wallace and Gromit do not respond. During a town meeting the next day, the

, Edward Clement Hedges dramatically reveals the creature to be the legendary ''Were-Rabbit''. Hunter Victor Quartermaine offers to shoot the creature, but Lady Tottington persuades the townsfolk to give Wallace and Gromit a second chance. Wallace devises a plan to lure the rabbit out by driving around the village at night with a life-size female rabbit strapped to their van. After dislodging the rabbit by driving through a tunnel, Wallace leaves Gromit in the van to go and retrieve it. While waiting, Gromit spots the real rabbit and gives chase through the village and a giant rabbit hole but is unsuccessful. Gromit follows the burrow and eventually resurfaces in the morning and is shocked to find himself in his garden. He follows a set of muddy footprints leading into the house and seemingly down to the basement. Wallace concludes that Hutch must be the suspect and rushes off to tell Lady Tottington that the beast has been caught. Gromit locks Hutch in a high-security cage. Gromit then sees the trail of footprints continues past the basement, up the stairs, and into Wallace's bedroom where he finds a pile of half-eaten vegetables inside, indicating that Wallace is the real culprit. Gromit rushes to Tottington Hall to prevent Wallace from transforming. But on their route home, they are cornered in the forest by Victor, who vies for Lady Tottington's affections and fortune. Wallace transforms into the Were-Rabbit under the full moon and flees. Now seeing the perfect chance to eliminate his rival, Victor obtains three "24- carrot" gold bullets from Hedges, to use against rabbit Wallace. On the day of the vegetable competition, Gromit reveals to Wallace that the experiment has swapped his and Hutch's personalities; the latter is now carrying his human traits and is the only one who can fix the Mind-O-Matic. Before Hutch can finish, Lady Tottington visits and informs Wallace of Victor's plan to shoot the were-rabbit; as the moon rises, Wallace begins to transform again and hastily forces Lady Tottington to leave. Victor arrives and attempts to shoot Wallace with the golden bullets, but Gromit helps Wallace to escape by donning the female were-rabbit suit. Once Victor is gone, Gromit with help from Hutch devises a plan to save Wallace. Wallace arrives at the competition and is nearly shot by Victor but is saved by Gromit. After running out of gold bullets, Victor takes the Golden Carrot trophy to use as ammunition. Wallace, carries Lady Tottington atop Tottington Hall and reveals his true identity to her. Meanwhile, Gromit subdues Victor's dog, Philip, in a

using aeroplanes taken from a fairground attraction. Gromit then steers his plane into Victor's line of fire as he shoots at Wallace, causing the carrot to hit the plane instead. The damaged plane falls and Wallace jumps to grab Gromit, sacrificing himself to break his fall into a cheese tent. Gromit quickly disguises Victor as the female were-rabbit, causing Philip and the townspeople to chase him away. Wallace morphs back to his human self and appears dead, but Gromit revives him with Stinking Bishop cheese, undoing the curse of the Were-Rabbit. Lady Tottington awards Gromit the Golden Carrot for his valor and converts the grounds of Tottington Hall into a
