"Herman the giant rabbit

A man has been showing off his gigantic rabbit named Herman.

The mighty bunny weighs a massive 7.7kg, and his ears are a lengthy 21cm - almost as long as most pet rabbits are tall. And he is almost 1m tall.

The German Giant is even big for his breed, which usually tip the scales at around 6kg.

Herman lives in a specially built solid oak hutch and chomps his way through just over 2kg of food a day. His owner says his favourite snack is lettuce."

That rabbit has fantastic feet.
But, he eats 2 kilos of food a day? That's a lot of manure!

he only weighs 17 pounds. big for a rabbit, sure, but pretty small by dog standards. I can't believe an animal over 3 feet long only weighs 17 pounds. must be all fur. there are dogs not even 2 feet long that weigh more than that.

Man, Herman needs to be rented out as a "stud" animal.
Can you imagine the fees he would bring in?
I bet the site of him causes all the girl bunnies to go weak.
One should never stop striving for clarity of thought and precision of expression.
I would prefer my humanity sullied with the tarnish of science rather than the gloss of religion.
