Fierce Rabbit Developed
Scientists have produced by selective breeding a ferocious orangecoloured rabbit that growls and snaps. The laboratory-bred” creature can “lick 10 times 'its weight,” according to Dr. Sawin, director of rabbit genetics at the Roscoe Jackson memorial Cancer Laboratory. It lunges furiously at anything within reach and will sink its sharp, pointed teeth into an iron bar held by its keeper. When anyone approaches its cage, the nqw-typq rabbit crouches like a panther and gives menacing, throaty growls.
