madAsHell म्हणाले...: Back in the Spring, I carefully mowed the backyard lawn. When I finished, my wife dutifully went to inspect my work.

Soon, I hear her terrified voice screaming my name. I rush to her side, and find her staring at the eviscerated remains of a rabbit that had just been dropped in the backyard. I cleaned up the mess.

I know how that happened. The neighborhood is fully populated with bald eagles.

Fast forward to mid-Summer. My wife has re-organized a porch, and adjacent recreation room. She opens the porch door, and falls asleep on the outdoor furniture.

At 3AM, I hear my name called. "There's a rabbit loose in the house, and it's pooping everywhere."

I know how that happened. I rolled-over, and went back to sleep.

Why would ANYONE keep rabbits??; २९/८/२१, ११:१८ AM

Achilles म्हणाले...: My wife got a pet bunny once.

Tried to keep it inside. Never again.

Kids want bunnies. They go outside.

I told them the only reason a rabbit comes in the house is we are going to eat it.; २९/८/२१, १२:३१ PM
Baceseras म्हणाले...: It's been said if you can fit your head through an opening you can get your whole body to follow. Here confirmed once more.

Wriggle is an interesting word, nu?; २९/८/२१, १२:३६ PM
michaele म्हणाले...: Just this past week, we had a skunk in a trap make a similar escape. We did not witness its magic act wiggle through the small metal "holes' but seeing the bunny do its thing make me accept the reality of how the skunk escaped.; २९/८/२१, १:३३ PM

Mike of Snoqualmie म्हणाले...: Rabbits are everywhere in Bellevue and Redmond, it's not unusual to see one every day. This is because of all the abandoned Easter bunnies. There was a field just north of SR-520 in Redmond, WA where all Easter bunnies were dumped off after people tired of them (about 20-25 years ago). When this field was schedule for commercial development, the bunnies had to be removed from their holes so they wouldn't be crushed by the heavy construction equipment. This removal effort probably went on for a couple of months before construction started. I don't remember what happened to the removed rabbits.; २९/८/२१, २:२९ PM

Should have used the one from Antioch. It worked for Arthur.; २९/८/२१, ४:१६ PM

Unfortunately, that holy hand grenade was left at Bagram Air Base and is now in the hands of the Taliban.; २९/८/२१, ७:०० PM
Bob म्हणाले...: I've seen rabbits in my back yard wriggle through the holes in a chain-link fence to escape our pet dogs.; २९/८/२१, ७:३१ PM
Ignorance is Bliss म्हणाले...: Anyone who ever read The Velveteen Rabbit should not be surprised

They were rabbits like himself, but quite furry and brand-new. They must have been very well made, for their seams didn't show at all, and they changed shape in a queer way when they moved; one minute they were long and thin and the next minute fat and bunchy, instead of always staying the same like he did.; २९/८/२१, १०:५० PM
Doug Sherlock म्हणाले...: This summer, on many occasions, rabbits or squirrels stole our tomatoes. Mostly, they left them inside the picket fence. Perhaps the animals were thinner than the vegetables.; ३१/८/२१, १:४६ PM
