Monster Rabbit terrorises Geordies

[someoneisatthedoor]

A “monster” rabbit has apparently been rampaging through vegetable patches in a small village in northern England, ripping up leeks, munching turnips and infuriating local gardeners.

In an uncanny resemblance to the plot of the hit animated film “Wallace & Gromit in the Curse of the Were-Rabbit,” angry horticulturists in Felton, near Newcastle, have now mounted an armed guard to protect their prized cabbages and parsnips.

“They call it the monster. It’s very big – it’s nearly the size of a dog,” said Joan Smith, whose son Jeff owns one of the plots under attack.

“It’s eating everything, all the vegetables,” she told Reuters. “They are trying to shoot it. They go along hoping to catch it but I think it’s too crafty.”

I agree.
That’s too good though. It sounds very Bugs Bunny-ish. Perhaps this rabbit is some kind of trickster spirit as well.

I thought they put tractor wheels on a volkswagon…
