[I’m sure the Aussies amongst us will be relieved to know that rabbits with damaged wiennies are able to mate again thanks to medical science.](http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn9221)😉 > [@](#): > > In a “landmark development” researchers have created an “artificial penis” that has allowed rabbits with damaged penises to successfully mate. The urologists say that the procedure might one day help treat men with severe erectile dysfunction. > > The technique involves a new method of tissue-engineering which enabled the team to use the animals’ own cells to build the spongy tissue structure that makes up the bulk of the penis. > > The functioning penises were the latest achievement of Anthony Atala and colleagues at the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, US. This is the same team that hit the headlines in April with the first bio-engineered human bladders which were successfully implanted into patients. No doubt when this proceedure becomes available for humans, we’ll hear lots of “Boing!” jokes. ---

_Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world’s first bionic penis. Frou-frou will be that penis. Better than it was before. Better, stronger, faster._ [cue bionic sound effect over a porn grove] ---

Ya’ know, I clicked on this thread out of curiousity–no, not because I was interested in Bionic Bunny Penis’, but because **Tuckerfan** seems (at least in my mind) begin a lot of threads about cars, and I just couldn’t wait to see how this was going to tie into a car. I’m somewhat disappointed, I must say. ---
