The ravenous giant rabbit, named after the famed Wallace and Gromit character, is reported to have ripped up dozens of prize-winning leeks and turnips.
...
"It is absolutely massive. I have seen its prints and they are huge, bigger than a deer. It is a brute of a thing."

Could be. We had a kangaroo loose around here, last summer was it? I was hillarious how the magazines were once again making enermous headlines about our new native species.

Ofcourse there really was no real marsupial loose here. Someone had propably seen a deer and freaked out. Like with that lion near the russian border years back. But that is a story for another time :)

Anyway, rabbits can actually grow quite large if sufficent nutrition (or maybe toxic waste) is applied. Really.

Don't you have any natural predators though, such as a fox, that would nail that fat rabbit in minutes?

Gee, are they sure the animal was a rabbit?  That's pretty scary.  I love small animals including rabbits, but the description in the news article scares me.

Thanks Turambar for thinking the same way.  I love bunnies, they aren't usually looking like ones in the pictures.  Here are my bunnies.  They are cute, aren't they?

Albinoism is pretty common in animals.

And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.
