“You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud” (Leviticus 11:3). The key word is “and,” for Leviticus 11 describes the animals that have one or another attribute, but not both at the same time, e.g., the camel, coney,
rabbit, and pig. Of them, it says, “You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses” (Leviticus 11:4-8).
Another example of bunnies being avoided.
