In order to fight the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Shredder concluded that he needed mutants of his own, and kidnapped a scientist forcing him to create mutants to serve him. Rahzar was mutated from a wolf cub, and believed Shredder to be his mother, at first Shredder believed the experiment to be a failure, and ordered Rahzar and the other mutant, Tokka to be destroyed, but then gave them a second chance after witnessing their brutally powerful strength.
