acrimony

'venom' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'bound to stuff a bunny' is the wordplay.
'bound' becomes 'rim' (both can mean a limit or boundary).
'to stuff' indicates putting letters inside.
'bunny' becomes 'cony' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'a'+'cony'='acony'
'rim' placed into 'acony' is 'ACRIMONY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for acrimony that I've seen before include "Bitterness, ill feeling" , "Rancour, bad blood" , "Acronym I coined in hostility" , "Bitterness or ill-feeling" , "Bitterness of manner or words" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
