Doing The Bunny Hop

Squish.

That's the sound the bunny made when the photographer stepped on it.

PETA forgive me, but this is the funniest story I've heard this year.

In Germany, a rabbit was born without ears due to a genetic defect. The zoo where the seventeen-day-old bundle of fluff was residing called the press to announce the exciting news, that little Til the earless bunny was going to be put on display so everyone could see what an earless rabbit looks like.

Poor Til.

Never heard the photographer's feet slapping the ground. Never had a chance to hop away out of danger.

At its moment of glory, Til took fright and hid in a pile of straw. The unsuspecting photographer merely took a step back from where he was standing, and the rest is history.

It was a direct hit, according to the zoo's director.

Bunny pancake. Sans ears.

The moral of the story? Don't give your child a baby bunny as an Easter present.

I know that has nothing to do with the story, but you shouldn't be giving children small animals on a holiday. That ought to square me with PETA, so.
