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.

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.
