A label located at the bottom of Ma Bunny reads in part, "Bee International, Commerce, CA 90040, Made in China." Neither the CPSC nor Bee International is aware of any injuries involving this product. This voluntary recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injury. Consumers who purchased the Easter baskets, model number BK101, may keep Ma Bunny, however, consumers are urged to take Baby Bunny away from young children immediately and return the toy directly to Bee International, 6817 Acco Street, Commerce, CA 90040, Attention: Greg Hall, for a $1.00 refund of the price Baby Bunny would have sold for if purchased separately from Ma Bunny plus shipping costs.
