Giant Rabbit

What is it with giant rabbits? From Harvey, to Monty Python and the Holy Grail, to Donnie Darko, to Wallace and Grommit -- they do seize the imagination, don't they??

This one was bigger than the fattest cats I've seen, and bigger than most racoons, too. Which may be why he has survived a year in the "wild" after escaping from the farmer's hutch (nibbling freely on the garden, natch).

I didn't really get a great picture of him. This close-up looks like something the National Enquirer would run (e.g., a picture of "the biggest frog in the world" - held by human hands that are also blown up to 10x regular size):



And the distance shot makes him look only slightly larger than an ordinary rabbit.



Oh well. You'll just have to trust me on this one. Or not, as you prefer.

You can see that s/he's huge by the bricks in the garden!
