RABBITSFriends or foe?

Kelley McCurdy

INNOCENT?Rabbits are fearsome creatures.

They have wonderful eyesight

Can run at top speeds Teeth as sharp as a

rodent’s Bite strength strong

enough to break bone!

BUILDING AN ARMY 200,000 descendants in a

single year They carry diseases that

harm livestock Cause soil erosion Destroy all greenery and

Vegetation in their wake.

ANCIENT GREECERabbits have been a threat to humans as far back as history can find. There have been reports of threats even back to Ancient Greece.

MEDIEVAL TIMESRabbits were even threats in the middle ages. One such rabbit to fear is the Rabbit of Caerbannog.While searching for the Holy Grail, many soldiers along side King Arthur himself struggled to defeat the fearsome beast.

GO ASK AUSTRALIARabbits are not native to Australia (the home of scary animals).Feral rabbits were reported in Tasmania in 1859 after stowing away with the First Fleet. By 1886 it was too late:

Rabbit population had spread through out the country.

Their current population is thought by some to be over 200 million strong.

EVOLVE OR DIE

Rabbits have evolved to blend into our current environment.

While some have given up their evil ways to become docile house pets, many have learned to blend in to continue their mission to end us.

BUNNICULATheir extra set of teeth have been taught to retract on will to aid the Bunnicula Rabbits

“Today Vegetables…Tomorrow the world.”

SWAMP RABBITApril 20, 1979, a vicious attack was launched on then-President Jimmy Carter by a swamp RabbitHe fearlessly defended himself and his country in the violent assault. Would our current President fare as well against another attack?

WERE-RABBITWere-Rabbits blend in as one of the easiest disguises.

HUMANOID RABBITSPerhaps the most fearsome and deadly evolution of this beast is those who have begun to develop human like figures. This evolution has shown to be the next stage of development. Our only hope is to get the word out.

FAKE NEWSDue to the increase in traffic to fake news, it can be difficult to spot the truth. The media is trying to protect the public!Just watch scenes from cult hit Buffy: The Vampire Slayer as a very logical belief is shut down due to the confusion on just what is true.
