An Ounce - For Your Consideration
Too Much
Everybody love’s bunnies. Rabbits are ubiquitous. Soft, Cuddly, Cute.
But is it possible to have too much of a good thing?
Rabbits are found in multiple environments – from desert to mountain… or as a stuffed plush, may be snuggled up tight to a sleeping child.
On another - they can be great sport to hunt, and can be prepared to be downright tasty. Just ask Elmer Fudd (and if you don’t know who that is ask a grandparent).
These adorable little hoppers found in everything from literature to cartoons.
You’ve got the easter bunny, bugs bunny, peter rabbit, the energizer bunny, (Bambi’s little friend) thumper, Watership Down and the white rabbit found in Alice in Wonderland, or co-staring with Jimmy Stewart in the 1950s classic, “Harvey”.
However, one environment they were not found in – until the 1800’s – was Australia.
