A rarity that I haven’t seen in my 20 years in the subdivision where I live - I see wild rabbits (several times a week now) out in the lawns of some houses in the evenings just grazing and hanging out while the neighborhood cats and dogs are away.

I'm planting a grass and clover lawn.

For the bunnies.

For dinner.

To: null and void
When the Berlin Wall went up it trapped thousands of rabbits between the two walls comprising it. For 28 years they enjoyed a protected existence, without dogs or predators and with plenty of food, in a wide belt of land surrounding the city. When the wall came down, rabbits flooded Berlin and were shot and cooked by the residents to the point where no one ever wanted to think about eating rabbit again. Until then it was a rabbit paradise.

A beautiful political satire of this event, told from the rabbit's perspective, was filmed in 2010, Rabbit a la Berlin, which is available on Amazon Prime.
