January 3, 2007: Big-ass rabbits go to the Norks



"Un megaconejo," reports the 20minutos.es gallery. It's partly the photo that makes this bunny big, but the official caption says the incredible beast is almost 10kg (22 lb)!

Bred to be that way, apparently, by breeder Karl Szmolinsky of Eberswalde, Germany... the guy holding the beast.

Now apparently the North Koreans want to breed Szmolinzky's rabbits, and have gotten a shipment of the first 12 of them. Szmolinsky himself will head over soon to help set up a farming program there.



As a bonus, each and every one of the rabbits will have an IQ higher than that of Kim Jung Il.

Do the North Koreans realize that those megaconejos actually have to eat?

Looks like Witch Hazel put another spell on Bugs Bunny.

At last, a rabbit that will hug me, and squeeze me and call me George.

It certainly was (also too lazy to look and post a link)
It enabled me to get another question right on the Big Fat Quiz of the Year (British TV). Blessed the Cellar's name, even though it was just for fun.

Thread title threw me a little I admit - Norks being a very common (as in trashy rather than popular) word for teh boobies in the UK. Half expected a breast-feeding rabbit.

I was thinking more of an ARMY OF MASSIVE FIGHTING BUNNY TERROR, but that works too.

Over here in Oz, the word is norgs, Sundae Girl.




Sorry, drifted off there for a second.
If they make those rabbits any bigger, I won't have to get my girlfriend to wear the headband with ears on anymore.

No doubt the North Korean people will be told stories of how the god-leader created the massive rabbits in a singular act of beneficence...

Those damn photographers and their wide-angle lenses. Always making stuff look bigger than it really is... (camel spiders ftw)

Fried is good... But better with gravy.

Now we need a mutant Elmer Fudd. Just when you thought it was safe to go out in the woods.
