Damaging bus, nine rabbits (7)
I believe the answer is:
bunnies
'rabbits' is the definition.
(I know this)
'damaging bus nine' is the wordplay.
'damaging' indicates anagramming the letters.
'bus'+'nine'='busnine'
'busnine' anagrammed gives 'BUNNIES'.
(Another definition for bunnies that I've seen is " Rabbits".)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
