Although I have generally agreed with the postings made by Carmina Gooch, I must strongly disagree with this one. All humanity is aware that rabbits possess the ability to jump quite high. This ability alone does not pose a threat to humanity. However, a rabbit who has the size of mouth that it has and then becomes vicious beyond belief (what else could nipping at a finger or hand indicate? -and here I assume, perhaps falsely, that the handler was not in the cage with the animal, again, I assume that the wild thing was not roaming at large in the building) is not only an individual threat, but poses a threat to humanity as a whole. We all know, those of us who are human and half-assedly aware, that all rabbits, bar none, are keenly aware of the positioning of the jugular vein in humans. Need I indicate anything further?
