Look out Bad Bunny. There's another breed of bunny in town that's taking the internet by storm. A college student in Mexico recently went viral for the oddest thing. He has genetically engineered a strain of rabbits to be the largest in the world.

21-year-old Kiro Yakin has become a viral sensation after internet users have seen him with pictures of the giant bunnies he genetically engineered.

Yakin, a student at the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla on the Xicotepec campus, is studying veterinary and animal husbandry. He began his experimentation by breeding two unique rabbit types together. The Flemish Giant rabbit and other, longer-eared bunnies that Yakin happened to notice. As a result, his monster-bunny was born.

According to Yakin, his experimental bunnies grow up to 22 pounds  Flemish Giant, while the average Flemish giant weighs 15 pounds. But make no mistake, Yakin's bunny experiment was no accident. "It takes an average of 3 to 4 years to reproduce this giant species," he told Sintesis.

Yakin's ultimate goal is to breed a rabbit that can grow up to 30 pounds. "I am currently studying genetics to see how to grow this breed of giant rabbits more," he said.

Yakin, who has had a soft spot for rabbits since he was a child (pun intended), now cares for a whopping fifty giant rabbits out of his parents' home.

Luckily, his parents are supportive enough of his dream that they support their son (and his bunnies) financially. "I have the financial support and support of my parents to buy food a week for all 50 giant rabbits," Yakin told Sintesis.

But he also admitted his project has a long way to go. "So far I have not set aside the time or budget that is required to start the project more seriously," he said.

The only thing that's preventing Yakin from committing all his time and energy to creating even bigger bunnies is--what else?--money.

Although he already submitted a proposal to his university to try and expand his research, as of now, he is self-financed. However, Yakin makes a bit of extra cash by selling the giant bunnies to private customers.

His ultimate goal though, is to open up a large, professional farm where he can breed and cross-breed his bunnies to his heart's content.
